TIP! A way to save money.
What I have noticed so far on my journy to finding wedding items is that if you look for your items in non-wedding stores they are less expensive.
Things such as shoes, bags, jewelry are much cheaper if you find them in the right colours at non-bridal stores such as old navy, the gap and online.
do this with any item possible. Really think hard if its possible for you to get that item at a...

This one really is cute and well executed!
One of my friends was visiting Sacramento from Las Vegas and told me that one of her friends had an art exhibit at a local gallery. She told me she would meet me there. I invited my boyfriend (at the time) and we drove there around 5pm. We got to the art gallery and there were no cars in the parking lot. I figured my friend had gotten the days of the art...

If you’re having a similar problem then these few tips may help make your decision...

Unconventional Bridesmaid Dresses
It’s time we changed the stereotype about bridesmaid dresses. If you really want your bridesmaids to actually wear the dresses you chose again, you need to think outside the box. As a bride, your goal should be to choose dresses for your girls that are universally flattering and somewhat easy on the wallet.
Often, traditional bridal shops sell dresses that are more expensive than most department...
