Don't forget that Sainsbury's, Waitrose and Majestic (and probably other chains) will all lend you glasses for free. Sainsbury's ask for a deposit, Waitrose don't - it's come in handy a few times!

Work out what you can do yourself, ie; any friends or family that have a hidden talent for taking really good photographs that could do the piccies on the day? Ask if anybody would want to sort the wedding cake out as a wedding present, anybody have a nice enough car that you could do up with flowers and ribbon as the wedding car?
Like suki1964, we had a fantastic day and night and did it all for under £1000.

Sit down, have a talk with your OH, work out a budget, write down everything for the day and then set yourselves a limit that you can afford for each thing and work it from there.
Good luck.
