Check that the menswear suit you like, actually comes in shiny silver, and not just in a dull, gray color.

Great idea for an inexpensive bridesmaid gift.  Help promote the planet and the use of recyclables by conscientiously giving your wedding party something they would use.  If you want to personalize it iron on large monogram letters in the center.

So much of this look can be handmade by you, your family or someone in the bridal party.  The silver sashes fabric can be purchased at any fabric store, cut the sashes on a bias and stuff the raw ends inward for the wedding.  1, 2, 3, and you got it!

Whether you are planning a magical Christmas wedding or a traditional Spanish event, this year's must have 2011 wedding-to-do is adding flashy, silver, accents and features. Silver has never been a real bridal contender until now. Many famous haute couture designers used flashy silver lame fabrics in their collections this year. The runways of Dior, Gautier, and Lagerfeld featured array lavishly expensive, flowing, jersey and knitted, fabric dresses, accented by either a handsome side-kick suited in a stunning, shiny, silver tuxedo, over-the-top silver shoes, jewelry or bridesmaid dresses. If they can do it, so can we! But our high fashion, silver accented, Haute Couture wedding will be hosted on a budget.

When planning an event, such as a wedding in this case, it's good to know all the particulars of your budget before purchasing any product and making any serious cash deposits. Once the bridal budget has been finalized, do yourselves one big favor, by strictly following your cost saving ideas, and using your budget accordingly. Wedding costs have a tendency to get out of hand, and out-of-hand fast. So it is much better to face the music now, before it turns out-to-be too late. Think about it..., the last thing you and your bridegroom need, would be to start your new life together in debt! Planning a budget wedding takes time.  It requires you to shop selectively. It's your goal to get what you want, in a timely manner without costing you the "checkbook operator" a fortune. I think the other two, most, serious aspects of planning a wedding on a budget is comprise and patience. It is good for you to realize it now that you cannot always get exactly what you want. Be patience and kind, and you will find that your wedding will go off without a hitch, and still be the "idealistic" wedding you wanted it to be.

Then again, you could always marry a multi-millionaire. And get the guy in the silver Dior suit to try on the next size up in jackets.

NOW you've really done it! All of this traditional stuff looks boring! Good thing I'm already married because what would I tell my bride to be. "Honey, Julie ruined me. I can't get married." "Who's Julie?!" "Now honey she is just a friend of mine that I've been looking at wedding clothes with." "Who's JULIE?!" "Honey it's just a girl I know that calls herself IntimatEvolution and..." "Who's JULIE?!! Intimate What?!!! Intimate!!!"
