Decided to move the date closer.

Freecycle

Craigslist

garage sales

helpful friends and family

Jo-Ann stores (get on the "preferred customer" list and get discount coupons

"think outside the box"

you can make your wedding quite fancy without spending a lot of money

(instead of a fancy guest book, get an inexpensive autograph book and cover it with satin or lace)

actually we had a looseleaf notebook filled with heavyweight paper, on a table at the reception, with crayons and colored markers ... we put up a little sign asking each guest to "draw a picture or write a comment" ... it's one of our treasured possessions

Actually how about a pic of the happy couple.

You know how we love pictures.

Yeah, it often snows in April and up here in May. A couple years ago we got quite a few inches on April 9th. You sure you want to move it up? Think of it this way, if you get married on a later date, then you can have 2 celebrations every year, the wedding anniversary and the first meeting anniversary.

Of course, I'll find any excuse to celebrate.

Stevie, if your going to have a
wedding in Michigan (of all places)
theres no way! you could have it outside!
I live in Michigan and its COLD ! Even in
April!, the only time it get warm here is around
June and may. if your want it outside think
LOTS AND LOTS OF heaters

We are going to do it inside and maybe guest can bring food? kind of like a potluck dinner thing?

 

[Kaneke]

much smarter idea for wedding in April in Michigan !

also friendlier ... less fuss ... fewer arrangement needed

can be fancy but not so difficult to get all the arrangments set in place that way

Hey, are you ignoring our pic requests.

 

[hypnofrogstevie]

. She wants to wait until the wedding day to have the pics on here.
also if people bring there own food the can choose what they like

NO NO NO thats too long to wait - you might be able to wait that long, but we can't.

The pic's you have in a photo album, you can take a picture of them with the digital camera, make sure to turn the flash off, and be directly in line with the photo - I normally put the picture on a table, then stand up on a chair and aim directly DOWN onto the picture - with enough light on that I don't need the flash to go off and create a glare......

Go on try it - we'll wait here a few minutes
