We are one an extremely tight budget. We are trying to price out doing everything ourselves vs. a venue where a lot of things are included. We have looked all over and found greay places thanks to everyone's suggestions, but we are now looking for low cost catering, photography, dj services and any other suggestions you may have for us. I want a small wedding but I want to be able to include everyone important to me vs. Only selecting 40 since we can't afford anymore if we use a venue. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Check out my wedding site.  My photographer is the least expensive I could find, and I adore their work, so bonus!  My cake lady...wonderful price!  My DJ is so great.  Very laid back, flexible and the pricing is also the best I found.  We are seriously pinching Pennies too, but I was very lucky to find amazing vendors!

    Check out Magic Touch Catering. They are VERY resonable and their food is fantastic!

    If you're looking for a make up artist who is willing to work with your budget, you should try the girl I used - she was phenomenal and helped make me the day be that much better!!   Her website is www.wix.com/SaraColello/MUA

    I also have her phone number - so send me a private message and I can give it to you.

    But seriously, what part of town are you in? We are on an extreme tight budget as well. It might sound crazy but go to Glendale 9 or the old Grey Hound track on the weekends while they are having their swap meets you can go there to be everything! even rental places can be scouted out there.

    I am on a tight budget as well.

    I just booked my ceremony/reception at the Antique Wedding House in Mesa. I am having 40 guests. She waived the tax because it is scheduled on not so popular month (September). The Isabella package is $2,900 with everything included - cake, cake-cutting, photographer, officiant, DJ, ceremony music, set-up/tear-down, and food. 1 hour ceremony and three hour reception. 1 hour to get ready in their bridal suite as well before the ceremony.

    If you contact them, talk to Michele. She's amazing.
