It made it a lot easier to be able to make payments and get things that we needed over time. I ended up making a lot of the stuff for my daughters wedding - the centerpieces, pew bows, etc... and that saved quite a bit too. For instance, for the wedding favors, we gave out bubbles - Michael's had 100 bubble wands in small bottles for $19.99 and then I printed out little tag that had their names and the date of the wedding and tied it onto the bubble wands with ribbon in the wedding colors.

That's a really cute idea for wedding favors.

I was flipping through a Bride magazine yesterday and one of the articles was talking about fun ways to exit the ceremony, other than rice or petal tossing, and it mentioned bubbles. I asked Mike about it and he actually thought that would be a cute idea.

We're planning on doing some stuff ourselves. Not sure yet if we're going to do the cake ourselves. One of Mike's grandmothers actually used to make wedding cakes for a living and made the cake for his sister's wedding, but she's out of state now so don't know if she'll do it for us.

We've talked about doing the flowers and invitations ourselves.
