Hello wedding bargain hunters! Are you planning on getting your wedding party some thank-you gifts? It is traditionally expected that the bride & groom get their groomsmen, bridesmaids, flower girl, & ring bearer something special. Normally, it is different from (better than) what wedding guests receive as a favor.

These are some of the best deals I've found on groomsmen gifts and bridesmaid gifts this week - On Sale at The Knot Wedding Shop. Click on that link to check out their great deals. Honestly, the deals that they have right now are better than we can directly sell for!

Need Wedding Ring Deals?

Can you Recession-Proof your wedding?

All the economic buzz these days talks of recession. However, we know that weddings will never cease no matter what the economy does... :-)

Which wedding services are most effected by recession price increases and soaring fuel costs?
Catering/food, jewelry and transportation services are obvious categories seeing price increases lately. Slight increases may happen as well in some cases for gowns, flowers, DJ's, and officiant services all due to the increased costs of shipping and transporting these items/services. Categories that are relatively uneffected by recession are photography, tuxes, wedding planners, rental services (unless they are delivering), beauty, pre-marriage counseling, invitations & printing, and venues. Whether or not these items will see price increases "just because..." remains to be seen!

Stay tuned for more recession-proofing wedding ideas.
