A 2 Dress Conundrum

I am usually not as comfortable in longer dresses which is why I chose to go for two. So much easier to move and get around! The downside to that is that I only wore it for about an hour before the reception was over.

Ways I SAVED money:
Instead of going to a flourist, we found that going to the farmers market and SAMs club saved us a TON of money. And then we had my aunt who is a florist put all of the flowers together!
We had a family friend make our beautiful wedding cake instead of going through a bakery.
We booked our amazing photographer a year in advance and got her 2014 rate!
