Through my many months of blogging here on Budget-Savvy Bride, I have realized that I haven’t disclosed anything about a very important wedding component – food! Food was a very easy choice to make. I knew I didn’t want a formal sit down dinner. And I also didn’t want guests to stand in long buffet [...]
When it comes to planning a wedding, we invest so much time and attention to all the details about that day. We obsess over a dress, and the perfect shoes to match. Then we drive ourselves crazy over party attire, centerpieces, bouquets and boutonnières. It’s a riot (a fabulous one, but a riot nonetheless). Sometimes [...]
Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! Today I have a lovely wedding to share with you today from the talented John Defiora. The images from this wedding really spoke to me for some reason- it feels like John and his additional shooters captured this day in a natural way and I really love [...]
Hello BSB fans! Well the big day happened. The last couple weeks leading up to the wedding got very hectic, as you will all probably (and unfortunately) get to experience. I put my blogging on the wayside to get things done. But I definitely did not forget about you, the fans. The biggest change to our day [...]
I had a hard time coming up with a good idea for displaying people’s escort cards for the tables at our wedding. I loved the idea of a tree and tags hanging from the branches, but thought that could make it really hard for people to find themselves. Since I didn’t think this would really [...]
Hi dear readers! I hope this week has been a good one for all of you! I just wanted to pop in to share some favorite links from around the wedding blogosphere this week! Loving this sweet little engagement shoot on Le Magnifique! Have you been keeping up with the holiday inspiration boards over on [...]
I have scoured the Internet for destination wedding ideas ever since I got engaged… oh, who am I kidding? I was searching even before then. Since I scrapbook and craft and love all ideas DIY, I was very focused on the stationary and décor possibilities. Other brides may be obsessed with finding the dress [...]
I’m not in love with flowers, mainly the temporariness & the price tag. So I decided early on against them in regards to centerpieces, see more about that journey here. I thought I had come to a decision about our centerpieces months ago, but then when I tried to put that into action, I got [...]
I LOOOOOVE this wedding I have to share with you today! First of all… this couple has some major STYLE! I love the bride and groom’s outfits, from the peacock feather details on Anndrea’s shoes and Steven’s vest/suit with the striped socks. I love that Anndrea took the time to do lots of DIY to [...]
So, he popped the question and you said YES! You’re engaged and now you’ve got a sparkly little somethin’ on your left hand. Everything is just peachy! But have you ever considered the following scenarios: You take your ring off while washing your hands at a restaurant and leave it on the bathroom counter. Someone [...]
As soon as I saw a brooch bouquet in wedding blogs I perused even before I got engaged, I knew I needed to have one. Brooch bouquets are wonderful because they’re homemade (unless you buy on Etsy) and they never wilt. I decided when I got engaged in August 2011 that this brooch bouquet had [...]
Hello BSB fans! I hope you haven’t forgotten about me since my last post was in September. The months leading up to the wedding, I was a sleepless wreck. I tried very hard to stay awake but either nerves or the 100 things swirling around my brain just would not keep me asleep so usually somewhere [...]
