Wedding help

Make a CD of a compilation of your 'couple songs' and prepare a jacket cover with your faces, include a dedication, possibly a few words to your guests/etc...like make a proper cd cover. And theknot.com has cd labels just for this purpose.

Give one out to each guest/couple attending

That sounds really good, I have a few recordings of Richard singing for me that I could add. He has a great baritone and has done a lot of musical theatre.

another idea would be to purchase inexpensive flower seed packets and if you could find some small gift bags, hand those out as favours with a little reminder of the day. when the guest plants the seeds, the flowers will remind them of your special day.

our budget was very tight as well, but the wedding turned out beautifully. a friend took pics with her digital camera and they were amazing!! once they were downloaded i used a photo shop type program and tweaked them myself. turned out great! we also made a cd of our favourite songs and had them played during the reception, sort of background music.

we used small wedding shaped shiny confetti on the reception table, as it added a sparkle to the ivy and tulle (the ivy was out of my yard and the tulle came from a discount shop - walmart - 77cents a yard). i bought a bag of tea lights and very inexpensive votive holders from a dollar store and placed them on the tables and around the reception area. also used the tea lights in small baby food jars and hung them from the trees near the wedding area (we had a garden wedding). it was such a nice touch!

i'm sure whatever you come up with will be gorgeous!

Thanks I like the sound of this too, I'll be looking round a dollar store when I get there I think.
