Another bargain for me - my underwear was free! I CBA going shopping for new stuff for the wedding night, but was having a tidy up of my undies drawer and found a matching set with tags on that I didn't fit into when I was fatter! So they will do nicely - and that's my something old sorted too :rotfl:7 Feb 2012: 10st7lbs

I think our bridesmaid dresses are a bargain....not necessarily to everyone but they are to me! £75 for two of them and £90 for the third, from BHS, and only a little bit of alteration needed for two of them which will probably cost maximum £50.
a far cry from the £250 a dress we were looking at in bridal shops!

I was really happy with my 100 favour bags for £3.20, I got them in mixed colours and they arrived while I was away. I can't do a sweet table or sweet buffet due to a lack of space so I am going to fill them with sweets and put them on a cupcake stand for guests to take away (although 30 will be on the tables as actual favours of course)
Very happily married on 10th April 2013

My junior bridesmaids and flower girls dresses were my latest bargains.
I got the three off ebay from different sellers. The dresses are all slightly different.
My daughters dress, Tiger Lily dress. Retails for £44, paid £15.49 inc P&P.
OH Daughters dress, a BHS dress. Retails for £55, paid £26 P&P
My cousins dress, not sure what make it does have a lable on it but TBH I never read it. Was originally £17.50 inc P&P but was reduced to £13.50 inc P&P.
Chuffed to bits that I got the 3 kids dresses for the price of the BHS one.
With the savings from my Maid of honour and Bridesmaid dresses (I paid £50.09 for three Debut dresses, I only needed 2 but the extra one is so we can change the back of my MoH dress into a lace up back as the dresses have a small bust and she has a rather large one) I have altogether saved £221.42 :T0 -
these were the stationery i got from vistaprint

My third wedding car.
Long story short my nana kindly mentioned to my two cousins in the US that I would be asking them to be bridesmaids (even though I had decided against it) so I now need another car.
I was paying £ 350 for these two:
I am now having this one as well for a total of £490:
I'm so chuffed that I got this one for only £140, I thought it would be well over £200 but they apparently like to keep costs under £500 plus I don't need to send anymore money as a deposit.0 -
My favours - little heart-shaped bath bombs. 150 for £27 from Ebay
Centrepieces - costing a total of £60 for 12 - The stems will be trimmed to size, and the bottom couple of inches will be filled with aqua beads, and then topped up with water. The vase will be on a mirror plate, with four tealights in glass votives in each corner0
