How to have an cheap wedding?

I have found out recently that my father is not contributing to my wedding. I have been trying to cut corners. But if anyone has any ideas for floral and decorations and even rentals. Please Help!

You could have candles as your centerpieces- that can save a lot of $$. Also, check out ebay for invitations and other wedding items.

i agree with candle centerpieces or very simple flower centerpiece. my friend was on a limited budget and we did all the flowers....her centerpiece was a very simple but elegant vase with a singe tall cala lily and votives on the table. trust me, people loved it, it was so elegant.

In place of big floral centerpieces, we are having beautiful candelabras with rose petals on around the base...it makes for a very nice atmosphere when the lights go down for the first dance!
