Just about everyone wants to save money where they can on the wedding. These events can quickly get out of hand, so we're glad to see any cost-cutting tips we can. Ms. Hamilton at Etiquette Hell has a few ideas we thought we'd share with you.

1. Reduce the number of attendants. Is it really necessary to have eight, or even five? Yes, you love your friends, but there are other ways to involve them than to insist they wear the dress (or suit) and precede you down the aisle. Besides, being in a wedding party can be costly and time-consuming. You might be surprised at how many of them are not just not insulted, but positively relieved to know you won't be asking them.
