Food: MIL also said she would pay for it- LUCKY US! we're making it all ourselves though which im very excited about.

Flowers: $220, I'm going to order them from fiftyflowers.com and I'm getting a LOAD of sunflowers

Rentals: $350 for chairs/tables/plates/cups is all i need to rent because my MOH has everything else left over from her wedding and shes letting me use it.

Cake: $50 - MIL said she would make cupcakes with me, and its what i wanted anyways! i make delicious cupcakes. supplies are $20 for that and Then we are getting a 6" cake made to cut, and it will be $25. The cake stands we are buying front thrift stores to get that old vintage feel.

Invitations/STDs:  $45 - My STDs only cost me 15$ and 15$ for my invitations because i bought the supplies for my STDs in bulk and have enough left over for my invitations, i just need to buy a puncher. Sending out only 15 STDs and 15 invitations, so a little under $15 for all the stamps.

Favors: $15. I'm buying sunflower seeds in bulk and making paper envelops for them to go in. And printed out a little monogram to go on them, EASY!

Centerpieces: $20- i'm getting huge (either half gallon or gallon) mason jars. found 12 mason jars for $20. And my MIL has about 20 little black votive lanterns, so cute

Plane tickets: Since we live in Hawaii, and our wedding will be in Washington, plane tickets cost almost as much as the wedding itself- a little over $900. But i would never ever be able to have a wedding that i could afford in Hawaii (though it would make things easier).

Hair/makeup- I'm almost 100% possitive I'm doing my own.I've already done trial after trial and I know what I want and that I can do it. WOO! FREE!

Misc: $50 disposable cameras, music for the wedding from zune

Total so far: $950 + 900 for plane tickets = 1850+/- overall!
