Not using a mandap?

Anyone not using a mandap for the ceremony?  What are some cost effective alternatives?

    You can usea huppa style mandap..it is a little cheaper.  Also- if you get married outside and your venue has a gazebo you can decorate it with some flowers...just a thought.....

    I initially thought of this but our families were not okay with it but you can actually buy portable gazebos. I saw one at Stop and Shop and Christmas Tree Shops for about $150. You can have the decorator drape it and put flowers on it.

    Also, someone who can do pipe and drape. Tell them you need a round structure piped and draped and they can probably make a gorgeous one for super cheap.
