Going to the chapel and we're.......



No, not getting married... yet. BUT!! In my off-time I like to daydream, as most women would, about that "wonderful", "perfect" "fairytale" wedding we'd all like to have. Except mine...well, let's just say it goes a little different.
I bumped across http://www.planyourbudgetwedding.com/freecourse/weddingplanningcourse.html in a moment of boredom and curiosity wondering if there was copy about wedding planning, being a Marketing student and a girl, who might get married one day, this was right up my alley... Some of the tips this newsletter promises to enlighten women with got me so hyped I had to let you know my initial thoughts when reading this....

" Discover a sercret
(wow spellfail!) method for getting a wedding dress for free!"
I hope this chapter is about shoplifting........... though how would anyone take you seriously running out of a store wearing a wedding gown? not exactly something i can fit in my purse.... OR can I? Maybe use a large duffel bag as my purse...... hmmmm.. I hope that's a suggestion in the newsletter.


"How to save big on catering and still have a meal that impresses your guests."
Sacrifice your guests' first-born sons, as the Egyptians did during the time of Exodus...
This will not only 'impress' your other guests....but save you lots on catering when you can just roast/grill the kids (just think of it as eating Veal.... baby cows! woo!)

"3 unique ideas to save money on wedding invitations...how to get your invitations for under $30."
1) Go to dollar store.
2)Purchase coloring books in bulk.
3)Spend $30 in shipping costs to send all your invitees a coloring book with details to your wedding jotted inside the cover......then at the bottom say,
"PS. We know there's no crayons in this package. It's your problem now!!!! See you at the wedding.
PPS. We're having a coloring contest at the reception where we will display everyone's drawings as art to save on decor.... best coloring job gets an extra cupcake and apple juicebox."


But hey, you tell me... what does YOUR ideal wedding look like?!
