NEED HELP WITH SISTER'S WEDDING

[The Mean Lady 604]

I love that, by the way.

3500 is tight for that many guests. Perhaps you could save some more by going with white plates? I know you might not want to, but it would be cheaper, I think.

I'm now feeling a little sad that I've yet to have our wedding celebration.

You guys are soo cute!

I'm at like 2k already.

This is what I got:

Shepard's Hooks

Mason Jars

Buttons

Fake Flowers

Linens

Furniture Rental

Candy

Invites

RSVPs

Postage

Plates

Silverware

I need like 100lbs of apples still

Lace and Burlap for the centerpieces

THE DESSERTS

Cake

Oh yeah, 500 for the damn photographer.

Budget GONE!

[The Mean Lady 604]

Not sure what to do about the desserts.

That's really baffling me.

I think we should try to make most of this stuff to save money.

wow that was pretty quick.........

oh btw, I'm making fun of you over in The Rant.......

Make the wedding clothing optional. That should solve most of the problems you have posted here.

OO OO Burlap! You can get ROLLS of it from Canadian Tire. They prolly have it packed up but you might be able to whine your way into getting some.

Go to second hand stores for the mason jars. Prolly cheaper there.

buy BIG BOXES of different squares from COSTCO. There's no way you can make Naniamo bars that cheap!

What do you mean rolls but I have to ask for it?

Also, I don't think I can get mason jars any cheaper than I have.

I have:

(180) 8oz drink glasses

(12) 16oz decoration Jars

(12) 32oz for the shepards hooks

With Shipping is $200

It's the drink glasses. I couldn't find 180 at a thrift shop anyways.

And of course since I said thrift shop...

I'm using mason jars, but I picked an antique theme. Blush, off-white and gold.

Why green? Yikes.

I'm just not a huge fan of green. I like the centerpieces though. You seem to have everything in order. More so than my sister.

Etsy supplies has been a godsend for me in terms of decorations. Etsy itself is where I'm getting the bridesmaid gifts.
