Dollar Store Wedding Finds

So I drug hubby out shopping with me a couple weeks ago and we had to make a stop at the Dollar Tree.

He. Was. Amazed.

He didn't realize that the Dollar Tree carried so many wedding planner staples! He asked me "Why didn't you shop here more often when we were planning our wedding?"

I did...

No, you aren't going to find everything you need for your wedding at the dollar store, but there are so many thrifty ways to save money for your wedding! Here are a few things to pick up at the dollar store next time you're out and about:

Glue Sticks:

You need glue sticks for your wedding. Whether you're a DIY bride or not, glue sticks are an essential.

Vases and Glasswear:

Get cylinder vases, bud vases, fishbowls, milk jars, even the occasional mason jar at the dollar store!

Flowers and Stems:

Ok, ok, now, I wouldn't hold out hope that every flower they have will look 100% real, but given enough digging you might find some flowers and stems that look very nice.

Marbles, stones, or gems:

They even offer different colors!

Tea lights:

Everyone wants tea lights for their wedding. And at Dollar Tree you can choose between real candles or battery powered.

Favors:

There are so many things to choose from to give as gifts to your guests! Candles, photo frames, candy. Have fun with this one!
