I just came across the graphic above, which is a nice way to visualize the results of the 2011 Wedding Survey by The Knot and The Wedding Channel. Survey says.....the average cost of a wedding in the U.S. is over $27,000!

I personally feel you can have a stylish, modern, and special wedding for much less than this, and I see several areas where you could cut costs easily.

What do you think? How does this compare to your budget? Too high or too low?

Coach wristlets are popular bridesmaid gifts and certainly a favorite among bridesmaids! These are such a nice way to return some of the love to your girls and a gift that they will use often! Of course I may be biased- I gave these to my girls as part of their bridesmaid gifts, but I've also be so happy to receive one as a bridesmaid!

What's great about these is that you can snag these gifts on a budget too! Coach Factory Stores have wristlets like these for excellent prices! I was recently in one of the Coach outlet stores, and the staff told me that Coach has stopped using outlet coupons and instead has lowered the prices across the board in the factory stores.

From what I saw, I think that is true- I was surprised by how great some of the prices were! Several wristlets like the one above were just $29- an amazing price for Coach! Head to a nearby Coach Factory Store to see if you can score a similar deal!

Vistaprint's 6 spring freebies are still available- you just pay shipping! Get creative to make these into wedding details- chose one freebie or all six!

A few ideas for making these into wedding details:
- 250 FREE business cards: Personalize these with your names and wedding dates and use them as favor tags or tags on your out of town bags- just punch a hole in the corner and tie a ribbon through them!
- Self inking stamp: Use this for your return address on your invitations, save the dates or thank yous
- Free sticky notes: Personalize with your name or "Bride to be" to jot down wedding to do list. This is a fun thing to add to another order, since you'll already be paying shipping.
- FREE tote bag: Love that there are wedding designs included! Personalize it with your name or "Bride to be" to haul your wedding binder to all of those vendor meetings or "Just Married" for your honeymoon!
- Free t-shirt: Make it into a "Bride" or "Just Married" tee for wedding planning or your honeymoon!
- Free 4 x 6 flip photo book: This would make such a sweet gift for a flower girl or ring bearer.

I added all 6 products to my cart and shipping came to be just $11.64 for me or you can choose just a few items and shipping will be less. For example, you can score this cute wedding tote bag for $5 shipped!
