Wedding Wednesday

*If this is your first time visiting my blog, go here first to learn how it works!*


Every Wedding Wednesday I'll be sharing excerpts from my other blog along with new details!

I found a lot of stuff for my wedding by shopping in stores with great clearance sales. I practically lived in JoAnn's and Michael's craft stores, and I also spent a lot of time in Target and Walmart searching through stuff!

All of the little wedding items that you have to get REALLY add up! Favors, placecards, thank you notes, cake servers, bubbles, candles.....the list goes on and on! Even all of those things aren't really "necessary," they are things that many brides spend hours searching for! I know I did!

Recently, I made a clearance run through Target and found some adorable favors and invitation sets........

They had several shelves full of wedding stuff that was clearanced, probably getting ready for summer stuff! Yeah, I still look at it, even though my wedding was 8 months ago!

I thought these red favor boxes were adorable!



Here are a few links to other finds I made at Walmart and Target during my own wedding search!

Fun Finds at Walmart (Vases and palm trees I used!)
Kid's Table/Candy Table ideas (We bought all our candy and kids stuff on clearance or on the cheap!)

I bought quite a few things online as well using sites like The Knot, where I ordered my bubbles and Sand Ceremony Kits. They were really affordable! I loved the fact that I could customize the colors that I wanted for both the bubble bottles and the sand!

They were also very quick on shipping both items, and I found some great discounts by searching "The Knot + coupon codes."


I was soooo thrilled with my Sand Ceremony Kit! You can read more about how we used it here.

Wedding Wednesday



*If this is your first time visiting my blog, go here first to learn how it works!*





In addition to my Wednesday Wares features every week, I will also be doing some Wedding Wednesday features!

I am really excited about this, and hope that it will be a great help to my readers! Even if you aren't getting married anytime soon, or already are, you'll be able to find some great deals on gifts, unique ideas for decorating, and crafty ideas for weddings or everyday life!

Why am I so interested in doing these posts? Well, if you know me personally, you know that I have been a newlywed for 7 months now! :)

I started chronicling my wedding planning journey here on my blog Daisy's Favorite Things about a year ago. Not only did this help prepare me for writing THIS blog, but it also gave me some great opportunities to write for another blog and to find some great vendors!


I was featured as a Bride Blogger - "The Fabu-less Bride" on Ashley's Bride Guide, which is a Nashville-based wedding website, but has great things to offer for anyone, anywhere planning a wedding!

I planned my wedding on a $15,000 budget, which is SMALL compared to many weddings these days! Amazingly, the recession isn't seeming to affect weddings too much! Maybe because they are (hopefully!) a once in a lifetime event!

I did LOTS of things myself and spent months hunting for great deals for every detail of the wedding. It was exhausting, yet so rewarding!

For now, go visit Daisy's Favorite Things if you are interested in seeing how my wedding turned out! And tune in later for great tips/ideas!
