Do your own flowers and don't gety a limo. Try more DIY projects. Good Luck times are tough but hang in there.

Flowers just do bouqet for u & do 1 flower per BM & bouts for men. Maybe doing low cps or Candles for cps maybe cheaper. Also, if you have xtras in RH maybe get rid of it. Like VH just get a mini VH. HTH! G/L!!!

Instead of flower CP's, use candles. Just have the bo-k's done and buttioneres. You will save a ton this way. If you want a cheap florist, FM me.
Don't get a limo. If you know someone with a classic car- have them drive you!
As for a videopgrapher- have a teenage cousin film it. They love doing this and it will save you a bundle. They probably will be able to capture some wacky moments too.
DIY as much as possible- invites, favors, cardboxes, table cards- ANYTHING.
As for everything else- just hang in there. The economy stinks right now and this is a tough time for everyone.

Re: New Budget Freaking out!
I agree, a friend of mine saved a significant amount of money with DIY projects. So that would be a good way to start.

I think if you are taking pictures the ceremony and are getting married at the same place as the reception you dont need a limo because nobody will see it besides you.
I think Burtons has great prices for flower bouquets and try to DIY candle centerpieces which are cheaper.
and do a lot of searching online for set by step instructions to do a lot of DIY projects.

If you're having a big wedding party you could do the bo-k's as cp's

Do alot of DIY, dont get limos, have candle CPs instead of flowers and cut costs with the flowers as well, smaller bouquets.

the dollar store surprisingly has a lot of cute things, that you can work with to DIY for centerpieces etc.
they even have table number frames.
