Friends and Family discounts!  We got a great deal on the materials needed to build our new bed because our friend works at a local hardware store!
~ How We Saved the Week:
Bed supplies, and wedding makeup!  I'm having my makeup done, then buying the makeup that looks good, and having my sister do my makeup for the wedding! I'll get a great look AND get to keep the makeup!  Terra Firma Cosmetics is doing the makeup and providing the cosmetics! Crafted locally and made with natural products in the little town my mom grew up in!
