Love & Marriage
I am getting ready to plan my wedding. I want to get some ideas. We are thinking a very tiny wedding like 30 guests max. And our budget is pretty low, or at least we are not planning on spending too much. We have not set a date yet, thats why im getting ready to start planning, lol. I've been watching a lot of shows and i'm getting so excited!!!

We did ours cheap. I got my dress at a second hand store for $8. My best friend helped keep everything organized and planned her and her dh also did our videos, pics and web site. They owns a videography business. another friend and her dh did our cake! My step mom provided the dj. We catered ourselves and decorated. our pastor was a friends uncle.



The only bad part was that the girl I picked to be my maidter of houner did not show up. (we are no longer friends)

we got married two years ago, it was wonderful
we had 50 guest, got married in the park had our reception right there they have indoor facilities
my very good friend acted as a day of planner, my family helped set up an clean up
photographer was a friend of my mothers they are both pro. photographers an best friends
sister made the jewelry
'i diy'd all the decor
found the cheapest dj in a neighboring state , we live close to the border of sc
found a lady who made cakes out of her home cheap an yummy
splurged on my dress
spent less that 8g, which is an isnt expense depending
ii made the pomanders , i blinged out the cake topper , which was cheaper than buying a bling one but ndefiantly wasnt the cheapest option
we did our own flowers


in retrospec
doing a ipod playlist instead of dj would have cut cost
i spent to much on my dress
food could have been cheaper but i was getting fed up i had called or emailed 8 places this was the cheapest
i didnt have to go over board with decor , i could have saved on table centerpieces even though we didd them ourselves
but it was a wonderful day

I planned our 10 yr renewal of vows, unbeknownst to my DH: it was a surprise for him. I planned & budgeted the entire ceremony: paid for tuxedos for DH, & best man, dress for me, wedding cake, dress & flowers for our 18 month old flower girl dd, my bouquet, and my father hosted the reception at his house. we had, sheesh making myself think back that far, 25 guests total. I spent $550.00 total.
