Use Samples to Trim your Wedding Spending

I am a huge fan of free sample websites like www.yofreesamples.com, www.freeflys.com, www.target.com, and www.walmart.com. We have ordered tons of free products off of these websites that have helped us stay on budget month-to-month. 

I was browsing my favorite free sample sites this morning when I got to thinking. I bet we could use some of the free samples we order to help us save money on the wedding. If you check them daily you can really strike gold! Today I was able to order free coffee samples that will make 2 whole pots of coffee for our reception (not much but hey, it is free coffee), free bandaid samples for our wedding day emergency kits, free facial moisturizers for pre-wedding beauty routines, and a reusable tote bag for keeping my wedding essentials organized. 

I have also collected travel sized hair sprays, tooth paste, feminine products, deodorant, and lotion for our wedding day emergency kits, and self-tanning lotion for my wedding day look. 

Finding free samples may be tedious, but we have been successful so far in collecting samples to use on our wedding day. Each sample we order is less money we will be spending on our wedding. We can now use this money for our honeymoon, buying and renovating our first home, etc. We still have about 15 months until our wedding. Just think of all the samples we will find in this time that will help us shave down wedding day costs.
