Look into state parks to hold a wedding at. They have beautiful setting and usually have places to hold a reception on the grounds. Another place to save is with flowers. Call your florist and ask what types of flowers they have available for 1-2 dollars a stem. Your flowers for the wedding can also be used for the reception. I am a wedding planner. E-mail me if you would like, I`ll give you my number and I can give you all kinds of ideas

Wow! That sounds exciting. We are actually having the wedding at Miami Beach Gardens. It is a beautiful botanical garden and park. They have an indoor reception area as well. Our families are assisting with all of the food and bridesmaids gifts. Thank you for that wonderful suggestion.
