got my shoes and head piece from Primarni, invites and stickers came from vistaprint through quidco meaning that i got free items, paid delivery but got cashback which meant that VP paid me to use them, balloons were ebay, and table confetti, champagne bubbles and weights were all from the poundshop, and wedding was such good value as its in Vegas so we paid for a relatively cheap package and added on extras.
I'm very good at sniffing out a bargain and hate paying full price for anything lol x

CommentAuthorKath2010
I agree Lou Lou they don't feel cheap and nasty so overall pleased with them. I could only get 3 though as all the other stores were sold out. I'll keep looking tho. I have seen some really nice heart shaped tea light holders in the Deb*nhams sale too, but not sure if I am just gathering trinkets lol
CommentAuthorkaz44
i have managed to get a couple of bargains, first one was evening invites from Dunelm, pks of 10 (they are M&S) were £4 reduced to £3 and when i got to checkout they were 50p so got 70 invites for £3.50 !! second bargain was last week on the bay brand new silver shoes exactly what i've been after for £2.20 in original box etc. soooo happy.. just checked my local argos for the bowls but outta stock in both xx
CommentAuthorVsmith
I think my biggest bargin is my dress at £150.. it too is an ex sample one. Also got 45 x glass tea lights holders for £5 off a local site on facebook, A giant snakes and ladders game for the kids to play at £2.50 again off facebook... oh and 150 party poppers of fb again. I truely recomend if you haven't got one, setting up a for sale page on facebook for your local area where everyone can sell their stuff they no longer need.
