Did you skip anything? I'm trying to cut corners.

Original post by Bridex100

We are in crunch time. Wedding is less than 2 months away!

We are thinking of skipping:

1. Favors
2. Limos
3. Menus

*No STD's
*No Ice Sculpture
*No chocolate Fountain
*One limo for BP & us...limop will pick up guys..drop them off at church them pick up girls and after take everyone for pics & to RH
*donation favors & m&m's
*menus??? - still up in the air..may only 2 two per table in a nice frame I could use again....

I'm sure as I get closer I will be trying to cut alot more things!!!!!

We did not do STD, no programs, no menus, no fancy shmancy CP's.......those we're doing on our own (pics in my album), invites....On our own (God bless the 50% off coupons from ACmoore!!!)
Veil, Im using my friends........there is probablt more but I cant think of it right now.

I'm not sure if we necessarily cut things out, but we budgeted!! We didn't go for the really expensive of anything. We got our favors when they were on clearance, my sister is making our programs, we booked with a less expensive limo company, dj company and picked a photographer/videographer who would work within our budget.

Good luck.

We did not do

a rehersal dinner
petal cones
we do letters
table menus (the fox hollow provided)
candle centerpieces instead of flowers (but that was what I wanted anyway and it saved us some money)
favors were the glass love coasters and we got a good deal
i also did lindt favors and ordered in bulk not to expensive
did not hire a photojournalist
