Penny Pinching Bride

Chic for cheap... it can be done! We are on a tight budget and all I can find are people who say... "figure out what family members are going to pay for what and set your budget" or "the cost of the meal should be at least $20 a plate"... that is not realistic for us. I wanted to set up a one stop shop for brides like me... on a shoe string budget with tons of great ideas! There are a few sites out there but honestly if we break down their budgets it doesn't add up!

My flowers and bouquet

Picture from Schella

I know I want Gerber Daisies as my flowers... I have always loved daises so this is a natural conclusion.

Plan: I want each brides maid and groomsmen to walk down the isle with a single long stem Gerber Daisy and the 'head usher' will collect these to create my bouquet. Reason: To me this is a representation of support of our marriage. Also cost effective!

Word of caution: I will have another set of long stem Gerber Daisy's to be used for photos.
