More Ebay

I posted the other day about my Ebay finds, here are some more of my finds.



I want my two ushers and ring bearer to wear brown Converse since they are children. I did not want their parents to have to buy a pair of dress shoes for wedding that they will not wear again. I am still looking for 2 more pairs, but I found one pair for $15.00.

I was looking to add some wow factor to my centerpieces for the reception, without the wow factor expense. I had seen on one of the bridal shows, how a designer had placed lighting in a centerpiece. Of course, I saw this on a Platinum Wedding, which made me think it was out of reach. It was not that far out , since I found these lights on Ebay for $24.99 for 15. All of my centerpieces that will be in tall vases will have these lights in them and they are even submersible in water.


Here is what the light looks like with used.

I have a few more things I need to locate..Ebay will probably be the first place that I look.

I Love Ebay

I should call this blog "My Ebay Wedding". I found some great finds on Ebay for my wedding. I have saved so much money with purchasing from the vendors on there. Here are some of my recent finds.



I wanted my bridesmaids to have a flower balls to carry down the aisle instead of regular bouquets. I was going to have the person who is making my flower create them, but we decided it would be cheaper to purchase some already made. The ones that I found at Jo-Ann's and Michael's were between $8-10 a piece. I thought that was a bit much. I found these lovelies for $3.48 a piece.


Most people want additional pictures taken at wedding. I could not find cameras that were under $3.00 until I went to Ebay and found these for $1.69 a piece. I will have 30 tables at the reception, but to cut down on developing cost I only purchased 15 of cameras.


I have been looking for months for the groomsmen and ushers ties for the wedding. My broomjumpinggroom, who is very frugal, said that all of the ties that I picked out were nice but he was not going to pay $20.00 for a tie. I searched and negotiated with a seller on Ebay and got all the ties that I needed for the wedding for $7.35 a piece.



Go Ebay!!!!

I Love Ebay

I love eBay. I have been going over what type of jewelry to give my bridesmaids for the wedding. Everything that I looked at was to expensive. I had resolved myself to making them some jewelry. I had even bought some beads and jewelry supplies to make them. Then early last week I was looking on eBay and found some jewelry sets, with earrings and necklaces, for $4.99 and the person had 7 sets, which covers all my bridesmaids and maid of honor. Of course I bought all of them. I purchased my matron of honor a set that was similar to theirs on eBay for $8.00. This was a great fine. Go eBay!! I am not going to post pictures of them since my bridesmaids read my blog and I want it to be a surprise. One more thing off of my list. Now I just have to return the supplies that I bought to make the bridesmaids jewelry and get my money back...my whole $5.00.
