Other
ways that you can save money and be FRUGAL would be if you can
wear your mother's wedding dress. You would probably only need
minor alterations. If you know someone that's willing to lend
you there home or if you know a place where you can rent a warehouse
really cheap, you won't need the tent. It could be a monetary
tradeoff and could be a different environment. You could try telling
everyone that you want an old fashion wedding where everyone participates
by bringing a food dish and liquor, with no gifts. When finance
list is pulled tight, there are a lot of different ways you can
go about saving yourself alot of money. We have only touched on
a few here, but we are also a source of information if you need
us.
