    try to be as non-traditional as possible. the second people hear you're planning a wedding prices go up. my wife and I designed and hand-made our own save the date cards, invitations, table numbers, place cards and most other decorations. we had a family friend make cupcakes instead of a fancy traditional cake. I bought black suit and had only my brother as my best man in his military dress uniform (no tux rental and no large wedding party). My wife found a vintage dress and paid a few dollars for alterations which came out way cheaper than a traditional wedding dress.

    it's about your day, not about what your everyone expects to see at a wedding. have fun with it.
