I have this theory about weddings...
no. 1 They should be as much like your vision of your special day as possible.
no. 2 That doesn't mean that they should cost as much as a down payment on a new home!
...Which brings me to my third thought (and the inspiration for this post):
Save money on all the little details that make everything so special... do you really need silk ribbon when satin could look just as pretty and save you a bundle? AND Splurge on the things that are going to remain with you long after the wedding day has passed. I'm thinking your ring, shoes, and photographs!

PS. I just want to mention that I recognize that marriage and weddings are not for everyone. If this applies to you, please don't take this post as a suggestion otherwise. I've got weddings on the brain lately, with my sister about to walk down the isle in a few short weeks. I love all you single (happily un-wed) readers too! xox
