BRONZE BUDGET BRIDE

"PartyPOP.com is the World's largest online directory for weddings, parties and special events. We are giving away FREE printed wedding invitations to anyone who is getting married.

Ok, long story short, what EXACTLY will you get when Mr. Mailman knocks on your door?

Gorgeous invitations printed on 80lbs card stock paper, plus beautiful envelopes in matching design. All in professional layout, chosen by you.

Is everything REALLY free?

Yes! We know (and value) the real meaning of the word "FREE". So, to be crystal clear: we do not take ANY money from you for the design, paper, envelopes, printing or shipping. Also, there is no fee later, no need to buy anything or print anything yourself. How cool is that?

Why are we giving something of this value away (at no cost whatsoever)?

With the amount of spam and scam on the Internet, people have stopped believing that something awesome can be given away for free. The answer is really simple: we are passionate about great weddings and instead of spending millions on TV commercials, we spend our ad budget on you! Maybe, that's why we are the largest and most reliable online event and wedding directory. All we hope to accomplish is that, if you are really happy, you will tell your friends about us. And who knows, maybe one day, when you decide to plan another party, you'll think of us. That's all that there is to it, really.

To which countries do we deliver our free printed invitations?

Our print invitations are available all across the USA, Canada and the UK! We're ambitious, you know.

Will you get anything else, apart from the invitations?

Now, it may sound crazy, but the answer is yes! The bride and groom, who order our free invitations, will also get access to their own web page. Through this page you'll be able to post your wedding stories and pictures, you can link the page to your social networks and share comments coming from your friends. You can get valuable help for organizing your wedding, your guests get access to all the important information such as RSVP options and much-much more!"

If you are interested in making jarred favors like Pancake Mix In A Jar or these Homemade Super Chunky Cookie Mix then start getting excited because you can now find canning jars at here at DollarTree.com. :D

Just in time the Christmas season, Dollar Tree has new 8" Colored Vases in stock. You can find them in translucent, translucent spiral or frosted styles. I personally love the translucent, spiral ones but they're all beautiful.



As usual, you can buy them in bulk for your wedding right here at DollarTree.com but hurry because I am sure they will sell out very fast.

I am so excited about this sale because you can already get table linens and so much more for your wedding at Linen Table Cloth at affordable prices. However, this past Friday, Saturday, Sunday and this Monday they are taking an additional 30% off everything in their online store. What this means is that you can buy 120" Tablecloths for your wedding reception for less than $10.00, which is half the cost of renting one.

This great sale ends today, Monday 21st of November. I hope you won't miss it and all the other great sales happening this time of the year that can save you hundreds of dollars as you plan your wedding.

We take a look at what’s on offer from some of the country’s biggest department stores to give you the bigger picture on what to buy when for brides-to-be

Getting married is the biggest day of many people’s lives. It signifies a lasting commitment, a bringing together of two distinct families, and a massive party. Not only does it cost a lot of money, it means the creation of a new life, a shared one, with a whole lot of new and different possessions.

And as a friend of newlyweds, or soon-to-be-weds, finding the right way to show your appreciation and love for their new venture can be tough. It can also be expensive. A gift can only do so much talking for your feelings. But thinking in a specific way about your wedding gift-giving can be the most helpful.

Too often we fall into classic ‘wedding gift’ territory and end up giving something for the sake of it. Why not take a focus, like gifts for her? Department stores such as House of Fraser have extremely helpful databases of gift ideas that are perfect for both weddings and a more feminine occasion.

You can easily buy items for a bride-to-be which are practical, on budget and useful, without losing out on the personal touch.

Time and again, consumers come back to the quality homeware of Le Creuset, whose glazed stoneware dishes and casseroles are beautifully designed and incredibly functional. They are a perfect addition to any household – starting at £10, they always look the part for a very reasonable price.

For autumn and winter brides, skip buying bed linen and instead think of a really characterful, textured throw or rug to add warmth and colour to a bed or sofa. Not only is this an immediately useful gift for newlyweds in the colder months, it’s also a bit more fun and lighthearted.

Sumptuous Christy throws in gilded greens or greys are a delightful and classic way to give a stylish, memorable gift.

Many gift-givers overlook items on wedding lists because they are boring – cutlery and china being a great example – but you can have the most memorable gift of all if you make a bold and tasteful choice in such an area. Pied a Terre peacock dinnerware is a really fun way to spice up plates and mugs.

For all my Bronze Budget Brides I try hard to find affordable items on the market that will help you to create a platinum wedding look with your small budget and items like this Paris, Flea Market, Crystal Chandelier will help to do just that! Would you believe that each one is only $19.99!

You can hang one over each of your reception tables...or maybe just add one in the celing of your dance floor! They are 23.5" tall and 14.75" wide! They could hold four pillar candles but I think that the tapered candles, like you see in the photo above, looks so much better.

They are very elegant, regal, chic and I am planning on hanging one in my daughter's room and I know she will love it.

Interested in buying some for your home or wedding, find them here on Save-On-Crafts.com!

If you want chargers for your wedding reception, Koyal Wholesale have the color you are looking for I'm sure. If you are planning a Peacock Wedding, they've got a Peacock Blue or Teal charger for you! Among the colored chargers you can find there are pink, purple, lilac, green, black, gold, yellow, silver, brown and orange! They are under $2.00 each and are sold in packs of 24 but if you are interested in buying some, do so as soon as you can because these chargers sell out fast.




Find these chargers and many more here at KoyalWholesale.com!

There's one thing that most Platinum Weddings have in common and that's the bling! However, my job is to make sure that you  get that Platinum Wedding look on your bronze budget and I've got another fab find for you! Right now, HERE at Koyal Wholesale, you can get three feet or one yard of Diamond Rhinestone Ribbon on sale for only $9.99! I've seen this same ribbon for as much as $60 per yard and you can get it even cheaper if you buy a 30 feet roll for only $49.98! That's only $1.66 per foot!



You can use it to decorate your wedding cake, wedding bouquet, vases, candles, candle holders and just about anything you want to shine!



So go HERE to Koyal Wholesale right now and grab a roll or two before they go out of stock!

I don’t know what it is but diamonds just leave us girls in awe. My first diamond ring was my engagement ring but up until then I wore nothing but the look for less versions. I think that ring spoiled me a little though because ever since then I gravitate towards diamonds like a moth to a flame.


Of course, you know me, I would never pay an arm and a leg for jewelry, even diamond jewelry, but remarkably now none of us do! Just check out these diamond rings from ShopNBC…aren’t they fascinating! Each time I see one that I absolutely love, another beauty catches my eye. They're so beautiful, so different, so unique and you know I'm all about “the different." It’s the only reason I decided to plan an “Alice in Wonderland” wedding because different gives that extra “wow” that traditional sometimes can’t. I really am a traditional girl at heart so I do love the understated diamond rings just as much.


My absolute favorite ring among the collection has to be the “Diamond Domed Wire Work Ring!” I’ve never seen anything like it…it’s a piece of art through and through. The longer I stare at it, the more I have to have it! Unfortunately, that ring may be out of my budget but there are many more gorgeous, diamond rings at ShopNBC to choose from and even those that are less than $200 are stunning! Look at the “ Diamond Rosebud Ring” that I've posted below…isn’t it awesome and would you believe it's only $59.75?


Now I know where I will be sending Richard to buy my Christmas; Birthday; Anniversary; Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day presents because I don't think it's possible to have too many diamond rings! Do you?

Looking for clear cupcakes holders that are affordable? How about these from Koyal Wholesale that are $12.99 for 25 of them! The more you buy the more you'll save.
