Wow! \u00a0We\u00a0were so honored to be a part of this story on WeddingDresses.com, sharing a few of our tricks to save money on your big day.<\/p>\n

First – let me say – I so wish I had looked at WeddingDresses.com when I was shopping for a dress 5 years ago. They have an excellent site with tons of dresses, ideas, hacks…if you’re getting married, you need to bookmark that page, stat!<\/p>\n

But back to the story…<\/p>\n

Let’s face it. There’s a LOT of people out there who want to make money off you<\/em>. And when it comes to wedding, those people come out in force. Why pay too much when\u00a0there are easy wedding hacks that save you big bucks!<\/p>\n

Why give random wedding vendors that much power over your life?<\/p>\n

We did so many of these ideas from the article at our wedding – DIY drinks, printed our own invites, had the marriage and reception in the same place, never mentioned we were planning a wedding when we went shopping around for ideas, contacted our photographer after seeing her on Groupon, bought our flowers from Sam’s Club, etc.<\/p>\n

With a little extra thought and effort, we were able to pull off a pretty great wedding for $5,000.<\/p>\n

This list has 60+ topics that are right on the money. Many of these topics I didn’t consider…and now wish I did! \u00a0I know we could have saved hundreds more with some of these ideas.<\/p>\n

It’s solid\u00a0food for thought and will quickly getting you thinking about your finances, ways to save, and ways to get much more bang for your wedding buck.<\/p>\n

Weddings don’t have to cost a fortune! Why spend months of salary on one day, when you could be putting that money to a down payment on a house or car, toward retirement…or toward a killer honeymoon.<\/p>\n

If you’re getting married or know someone who is, check out the awesome ideas here:\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n
