Have the wedding YOU want! I am a newly-wed and during the planning stages of my wedding I found there are a few ways to have the wedding YOU want.
The first choice is, spending money and have a "professional" do it for you. You'll get what you want...convenience. You'll also get things you don't want...an empty bank account or paying back a loan!
The second choice is, having it done by me. Yes, you will be spending money, but you will be able to save yourself more money by letting me help. I speak from experience on this! I know I saved money by doing it myself, plus I received what I wanted. I made the flowergirl basket, after I noticed one like it in a fancy bridal shop, the price tag on their flowergirl basket was $40, and for less than $20 I got results that looked like I had bought the one in the fancy bridal shop. After checking out the prices for bridesmaids bouquets at a local craft store, and finding out they would cost over $35 each, I decided to make the bouquets for my five bridesmaids myself. The end result, I had five bouquets that cost less than $20 per bouquet. Then I checked into bridesmaids dresses, it's hard to find a bridesmaids dress under $75, and why make your bridesmaids buy a dress that they will NEVER wear again? I decided to make the dresses for my bridesmaids. All I needed was the material (a plum crepe), the patterns, and zippers.
The result was a dress that is beautiful, can be worn again, and each dress was less than $40 to make! I also made my garter for less than what a garter would cost in a fancy bridal shop. I found that Unity candles and tapers were rather expensive ($50 and up) and so I opted to buy plain white taper candles, and a plain white pillar candle, and added decorations.
I would strongly encourage those who will be getting married to check into having me help! You will get what you want, and save money! For those in the Omaha, NE area, Email me for a free price quote. Blondeprincess_usa@yahoo.com
This is the garter that I made, It is embellished with silver, and white ribbon, and topped with a purple ribbon rosette. 
This is the bouquet I made. I used silk flowers -roses, baby's breath, orchids, and carnations. |
