Where to Shop

eBay: You can find great deals on nearly everything for your wedding on eBay. Look for dresses, d’cor, silk flowers, plates and more.

Thrift stores: Hit local thrift stores for plates, vases, and other supplies in your color scheme. You can come up with cheap, eclectic decor this way.

Consignment stores: You’ll find quality wedding dresses, d’cor and more for awesome prices at consignment stores.
