HELP! I Am Trying To Plan For Under $2000.00

I did our entire wedding for under $2000. We had 150 guests. I think the key is to spend the money where it`ll mean the most to you. My dress was really important to me, so I spent about $400 on it. We did the food ourselves (had a cookie and dessert buffet and a punch bar in addition to wedding and groom`s cake) and all the food cost about $200. The second key is to be creative. Maybe that expensive decoration, favor, etc. You want can be made in advance with the help of your mom and bridesmaids (saving you money!) Be creative and look for ways to save money. If something seems a bit high in price, check out every other fathomable source...don`t go with the first vendor you see. Do your research. All the time and effort you spend looking for the best price is worth it! E-mail me if you need any more help. I don`t mind sharing my experiences.
