Wedding Wednesday - Fab Freebies!

So far in the wedding planning process I have learned that everyone wants a piece of the "wedding pie" (Adam's reference) meaning that weddings are ex-pen-sive and everyone wants to be paid for something.  If you are like me and need (hope) to stick within a budget, you need to think of some creative alternatives to get what you want without breaking the bank.  Thankfully I have come across some great wedding freebies that I'm going to share with you today!

I found most of these freebies on two websites: Wedding Chicks and The Tom Kat Studio. I've linked up to the freebies in the picture captions so you can easily find these printables.

For the Wedding Party

Wedding Chicks has a few different options of "Will you be my" cards.  I actually sent this bicycle one to my bridesmaids.  You are able to customize the color and change bridesmaid/groomsman to Maid of Honor/Best Man. To see all of the "Will you be my" options click here.

Invitations

Have you done any research on invitations yet?  There are SO many great styles out there that I have fallen in love with but $100+ for 25 invitations plus postage - YIKES!  That's a little rich for my budget not to mention, after the wedding they are thrown away.  Here are some free wedding invitation suites that wont break the bank and will do the job!

 I would still have these professionally printed, either by the communication resource team at our office or through an office max or office depot.  These stores always have printing specials and coupons if you ask.  Plus if you use their reward card, it can be even cheaper yet! :)

The free wedding invitations from Wedding Chicks are completely customizable for color and wording.

The invitations from The Tom Kat Studio for the Wedding DIY network don't offer color customization but that's not something a little bakers twine or washi tape couldn't take care of!

Decorations
Decorations are always the fun part and bring your whole wedding style together, I think.  If you are a DIY-er they are easy to make on a budget not to mention there are so many free printables, ideas and patterns out there that decorating becomes (fairly) easy.  Here are a few freebies I found...

A Few More Freebies
Here are a few more freebies that I've found along the way...

Wedding Chicks has a bunch of free cell phone wallpapers for you to download!  This one is my favorite.  Click here to find more.

I also found this iPhone app called Wedding Snap.  It is a photo sharing application that allows your guest to take pictures and everyone saves them to the same album.  Have your guests or wedding party download this app before your big day and they can help you capture all of the things you might have missed!

I hope these freebies help you out - I know they will help me a bunch!  Please follow along on the Design Your Dwelling Facebook page.  I'll be posting links to any new freebies I find here. Click here to follow on Facebook.

Have a great Wednesday and a Happy Halloween!
