Now, I got married before I made this commitment to being cheap. But, I have to say, this wedding was one of the cheapest on record.
The total:
Ceremony: $100.00 to reserve the Rose Garden at Birmingham Botanical Gardens
Reception: An undisclosed amount, because I called in some favors, had the reception at my workplace, and appealed to everyone's sense of charity.
Invitations:$75.00 and a few hours spent tying bows with my sister
Dress: $225.00 from J.Crew. And it fit like a dream
Shoes: $25.00
Hair and Makeup: I have a wonderful neighbor. Totally free.
Cake: $250.00 from a local chain of grocery stores. And it was delicious.
All of this adds up to just under $2000.00. And it was awesome.
