yeah the cost of getting married is ridiculous. There's so many things you can do yourself to cut the costs down. This is a perfect example.

That is a wonderful idea. I only wish when I got married, almost 10 years ago, there were a Michaels in my city to do this awesome suggestion.

This is a great idea and the smell is so wonderful. Little cheesy sayings on paper punched and laced with ribbon make great favors for any kind of party. Try this one on for size, "You light up my life."
