1. Food: order from the catering menu and have a friend meet the deliverer to setup.
2. Buy a used wedding dress and get it altered. The alterations will cost more than the dress.
4. Yeti cups make great groomsmen gifts in the summer in Florida. Ties can be purchased for less than $5 each.
5. Rent a large home for the rehearsal dinner. Most places charge much more per person than it costs to cook for a large group.
6. Have your friends and family help you setup.
7. Order a cake from Sam's club for $25 and have your friends and family bake the other dessert options.
8. Have your hair and make up done at a beauty school.
But, have a trial done before the big day! A couple of my bridesmaids' hair looked awful.
Like, worse than this scary head...awful.
My hair looked great, thankfully!
9. Borrow your reception dress from a friend.
10. Don't sacrifice something you want for something traditional. You can make your own tradition.
