I got married last May and had a very small budget. I wanted to pull off a wedding for about 100 or less for under $5000. And I did it!
I did as much DIY as I possibly could. I did this because - #1, I wanted to! I wanted to make sure it had "me" all over it! #2, I knew it would save me money. I also went a little non-traditional with my wedding ideas (I was getting married at the age of 39, so my thoughts of what I wanted in a wedding were different than what they would have been if…

Reduce, Re-use, Recycle
We've all heard this phrase from the time we were in elementary school. Usually, it applies to our daily grind- trying to limit the amount of paper we use, rinsing out jars and using them for other things, and of course putting anything we possibly can into the recycling bin. So how does this apply to weddings?
Well, I should first admit that this has nothing to do with saving the planet-- but it does have to do with saving you and your family a ton…
