We were married many years ago, and we did it inexpensively. We created our own invitations with a kit from Target (which got so many compliments); I bought my wedding dress on sale; my dear friend made my veil for me, including some beads from HER veil on the bottom of mine; our wedding party and guest list were small; and we had cake, champagne, and hors d'oeuvres at our late afternoon reception. It was lovely, simply, and sophisticated — and inexpensive! You can have a lovely, memorable wedding without spending tens of thousands of dollars. Enjoyed your video! I hope this will help people celebrate and create memories without all the debt.
My friend had a fake polystyrene wedding cake which looked great on pictures and cheap cut out pieces for guests to eat which was cheesecake from supermarket. At first I thought it was strange but why not? It saved them some money. Also hired wedding dress cut the cost down as well.
Love the bridesmaids’ jewelry gift idea! A pretty gold choker was given to me as a bridesmaid gift years ago. I still wear it and think of the bride and wedding every time I put it on!
your wedding sounds really cool
When my close friend got married,it was betty crocker and duncan hines for the wedding cake.yep.boxed cake mix wedding cake.total cost$25.wedding cake from a bakery,$10,000 .wish i was joking
Flowers.may i suggest fake flowers?like from a dollar tree,or craft store?lasts longer,costs far less
It always amazes me how expensive weddings are! I have no plans to get married anytime soon but I love watching these videos to prepare nonetheless hahaha
Never utter wedding.that word jacks prices way,way,way up.my first wedding was at a courthouse.sadly,divorced 9 months later,but so happy i wasnt stuck with that debt.
Second marraige is a common law deal.no papers or anything
Never have an "open bar"! That was our biggest wedding expense.
