Take Inventory! BORROW!!!

Ok, so we have all had tones of friends and family weddings we've attended over the years and now it's your turn/or lol... perhaps someone you know. YAAAA Wedding!
So in order to make this a wedding you will never forget, but NOT because the looming credit card bill, here are a few tips to help you get going on the right path...

First things first, take inventory, borrowing items for your wedding can be a huge cost cutter. Call or e-mail your friends and family to see what everyone has... ie. Vases, Candle holders, Linens, Cake Knife etc.

The fact is MANY brides and grooms often end up buying some of if not all of their tableware and are left with boxes of them, so go on and ASK... all they can say is no right, however I'm sure most are eager to get rid of or at least lend them out!

Also, take the SOMETHING BORROWED concept into the bigger items, perhaps borrow your mother's veil or the pearl necklace your friend bought for her wedding... or if you are so bold, someone elses wedding dress? A friend, your mother's or a second hand one?

Be bold, get out there and ask away, cross some of that stuff off your list, and think
"Can I Borrow that?"... before you go out and BUY BUY BUY!
