Hi Arnetta!
That’s a common fear for just about all brides and grooms right now, trying to plan a wedding on a budget and wanting it to look like they spent more. Here’s some help:
* Going smaller with floral centerpieces and decor is IN right now. Just a few tightly-bunched flowers in a small glass vase is all you need for a pretty centerpiece, and it looks elegant and upscale…hiding the fact that you’re spending 1/4 of the price of a traditional centerpiece.
* For your menu, don’t worry about not having a lot of different kinds of foods at your cocktail party. Just have 4 or 5 UNIQUE kinds of foods that guests don’t get everyday. That always makes it look like a more upscale menu. Talk with your caterer about how you can make a budget menu look more impressive by going with unique dishes. He or she will love having the opportunity to get creative.
* Choose inexpensive dishes like chicken and pasta, and then top them with an amazing, gourmet SAUCE, which also impresses guests.
* A smaller wedding cake can be decorated beautifully, which is the real impression to make with a cake…and you’ll spend less than half.
* A daytime wedding will allow you to have that same formal wedding as a nighttime slot, for 40% of the price! And guests tend to drink less in the daytime.

I know that this is strange but as for a wedding cake My fiance and I are going with a puffed wheat cake. Neither of us like cake and my mom is taking a flower making class so that she can decorate it with icing flowers. I know that it sounds strange but ill have to get pictures put up here after the wedding

Canary yellow and different shades of blue. Our ceremony and reception is right by the water and I love daisies and sunflowers and I think it all ties in really nicely.

Everyone’s colors sound so beautiful! We’re doing a mix of colors…. blue, green, red with sliver and gold accents. My gown, or the one I currently like haha, will most likely be white with red accents (bugle, sead pearl and swarvoski crystal beading in the red)The main flowers will be red roses, royal blue delphinium, green orchids and white gardenias(my fave flower). We can’t decide between a beach wedding in the Emerald Isle area or a wedding in the mountains of Virginia. Decisions, decisions… 😉

My wedding Is in December of 2010 and my colors are completly Black&White with no other color besides red roses everywhere. mI’ve ordered some sample invitations that are all black and have a pic of a cute kid couple in black and white holding a single red rose. I loved them! PERFECT! my dress will be ivory with some black trim around the neckline and down the train. I LOVE IT!
