Recycled receptions
With my own wedding in mind, I've been in search of savvy ideas, and I found many at RuffledBlog.com. The concept is simple: Allow couples to connect and re-sell items from their weddings. From gowns to glass vases, centerpieces to chandeliers, the site helps eliminate excess while allowing brides, both past and present, to save money. It's also a great resource for anyone looking to plan a party without breaking the bank!

Giving Keys transform old, discarded keys from trash into treasure; each comes engraved with a word like “love” “hope” or “strength," and is meant to be passed forward, giving each new wearer the same positive message ($35, thegivingkeys.com).
