Unfortunately I got laid off a month after we got engaged and after we had already put the deposit down for our venue and coordinator in Hawaii.  But in a way it has been a blessing in disguise … being at home all day long sure has given me tons of time to plan my wedding!!  And, now that I’m on a budget, I’ve been trying to DIY a lot of stuff.  I just finished making my invitations!!  I found the images online as clip art and just put them all together!!  And being a total DIY budget bride now, I printed 100 sets (4 pieces + 2 envelops) for only $150 (this includes about $40 to rush and custom mailing labels)!
