People spend way to much money on weddings. Keep it simple and with the ones you truly love in attendance. Have a big party on a special anniversary.

Why not have a reason to celebrate something wonderful, in a big way? Life is too short not to. I think to each his own. I've known people who would rather elope and use the money they would have spent on a wedding for a down payment on a house or to go travel. I've seen people get married in their kitchen and have pizza delivered. People want what they want. Let em be.

I've been married for 16 years. Yet I'm still here watching because I always love seeing your DIY's. Even if I'll never make them.

@Kc 82 ~ Hubby and I are 33 years in!!!! Congratulations to all of us for our long marriages!!!!

I’ve been married 35 years but still love watching your DIY’s wedding videos. Saving them for my daughters for their special day. Thank you so much for your brilliant ideas.

If you are using a venue, you may need to check if they allow open flame candles. I have seen people use the battery-operated candles, and they look great. Also, another suggestion for saving money on cakes is to have a small stackable cake, and then have sheet cakes back behind. Cut the sheet cakes to serve your guests. This is also a money saver.

Just make sure you have someone assigned to cut up the sheet cakes. Some places also will do the cutting for you but they charge a dollar+ per slice of cake they cut.

Been married for 20 years on the 17th of this month BUT I'm watching these for ideas for my kid's future weddings. These are fantastic ideas! Beautiful, high end ideas that can also be incorporated into the home. ❤ Congratulations! 🎊

For my 2002 wedding I ordered my cake at Publix & people still talk about how delicious my cake was!

She excited for you! We have been married for 36 years and still enjoy each other! God bless! ❤

I'm excited to see how you decorate for your wedding. Congratulations again. So happy for you and your fiancée.

Thank you so much that’s so sweet!

Just make sure you always put the girl's name before the guy's on wedding invitations, signs,etc. Just a bit of wedding etiquette.😊 Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!

Thank you so much for this video. I am getting married in July to my Jr/High school sweetheart (we reunited 42 years later) I have been planning since Oct 2022 and I still feel like there is so much to do (Good Luck with your preps) Most everything I have created for my wedding has come from Dollar Tree. I was able to pick up a couple ideas from this video so thanks for that. Looking forward to seeing your wedding. Congratulations to you and your fiance! gina

I love your ideas! My daughter is getting married on 10.14.23! I'm sending this to her. Thank you!

Those are lovely beautiful ideas, makes me want to get married again! Beautiful

Oh how beautiful!! Where were you 11 years ago when we were planning my son and daughter-in-laws wedding? 😂 Dollar Tree didn't have nearly what they have now and not did it cost a fortune!! My hubby and I paid for everything with the exception of the cake and a portion of the food. Plus we DIY'd everything. It was crazy but so worth it. When our oldest son got married it was all catered and professionally done. It was pretty but didn't have the warm touch of a DIY wedding. Congratulations! 🖤🤍

Wow! Such beautiful ideas! I’m 56 and I’ve been married for 35 years….I wish we knew all of these cool things back then and even with my daughters wedding 🤗 love watching your DIYs! Ty 🤍🤍🤍

GREAT VIDEO, Sara Jane!!! Another tip: Tell your guests to take items home! No one needs to pack up 1000 votives and centerpieces. If items are reusable, PLEASE take it with you! :)

We have a wedding this fall, our oldest daughter in getting married in October. Then our younger daughter is getting married in November 2024!! We just paid of their cars and college lol.. I’m ready to get the married off because I can’t afford them anymore, lol..

Dear Sara Jane, these ideas, and items are SO awesome. I wouldn't have thought they came from Dollar Tree! I hope people, especially those on budgets, are inspired. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL 🤍💐🤍

My youngest daughter just got engaged last week!! These are great ideas for their engagement party too!!

Sarah Jane I’m so excited for you - he’s one blessed guy to have you for his wife. I love your creative ideas I wish I’d had these tips 42 yrs ago Many blessings!

I'm widowed , but today would have been my 34th wedding anniversary. I wish we had Dollar Tree back then when we were planning our wedding . Our wedding was very fancy and gorgeous, took a year to plan, and was an amazing day, but using Dollar Tree products sure would have cut the cost lol Thanks for sharing 🥰💐🌷🪷🌞🍒💖✝💝 I love all of your ideas. The Walmart cake one, and cake stand are really brilliant ! Congratulations on your 2024 wedding ! 🥰💐🌷🪷🌞🍒💖✝💝

Great wedding diys ! You should look into being a party planner , especially for weddings you have great ideas & the decor looked so elegant the way you styled everything ! Can’t wait for your wedding !

Sara Jane I don't know how you are going to choose which decoration your going with because they all were absolutely beautiful. I would hire you as my wedding planner!! Love watching your videos. 😊 Again Congratulations on your engagement.

I can't wait to see pictures of your wedding. You will be a beautiful bride. And I know it will be gorgeously decorated. ❤

I managed an Event Center for 5 years...I’ve seen so many Weddings...It was a lot of fun, minus all the weekends lol. Congrats again 🤗👌😊🥳

There’s no doubt your wedding will be absolutely stunning! John and June are very lucky to have you do their wedding decor!! I find it so cool because my name is June and…you guessed it…my husband is John. I wish I had your wonderful videos back nearly 17 years ago. My wedding decor would have been done exact like what you’ve shown!

Congratulations Sara Jane, your day will be spectacular ❤ my husband and I will celebrate 27 year's this year😊

Congrats on your engagement! It would be amazing to see how you decorate for your wedding. I assume you ARE doing your own decor as the DIY decorating queen that you are! ❤

Wow! you have some really great ideas. I remember doing some DIYs for my daughter's wedding using Dollar Tree supplies. I agree with another subscriber you should be a wedding planner. You made everything look so very elegant. Thanks for sharing Sara Jane.

I've been married for 11 years but wow the themes then was bright colors so it's definitely changed. I LOVE the neutral colors for weddings it's so elegant. I'm loving your shirt also! Love the videos!

Thank you! I just got engaged and was waiting for some wedding content!

How exciting! I noticed your wedding is May 18 of next year. My daughter is getting married on May 19th of this year☺️!! It will be here before you know it!! Congratulations!!

Great ideas! Silk flowers cost less than fresh and arrangements can be made weeks ahead of time (vs. last minute, staying up all night). From the seats, guests can't tell they see a big silk arrangement up front at the ceremony. For inexpensive arrangements at the reception table, a single rose in a bowl of water surrounded by votive candles is elegant. Again, buy the roses at least 3 days early so they have time to open fully. Scatter the petals of one rose per table.

Just make sure to check with the venue about candles because some of them don't allow an actual flame and you'd have to get the battery-operated tea lights and things of that nature. Great video!

We had cinnamon apple scented tea light candles at our wedding and it smelled lovely for the fall, but it turned out my mother-in-law was slightly allergic. 😝 She was fine, but now I know why she propped the door open, she hated it. 😂 I absolutely love her but there always is that humor in the mother-in-law versus daughter-in-law choices being soooo different. She didn’t say anything until I bought her a candle by the same scent for Christmas. 😲

Great weddings DIYs!!! Planner tip on Sparklers ... the dollar tree ones are fun and inexpensive, but produce a lot of smoke which will ruin your send off photos. Please use the savings from all these great Diys and get sparklers made specifically for weddings.

That lamp base floral arrangement is absolutely beautiful! Congratulations on your engagement ❤

Happy Saturday gorgeous lady ❤ I love your top so gorgeous! So beautiful and so high end looking. You are so great at being creative. Wow absolutely gorgeous lady!

I can't wait to see more DIY'S from you. I'm so excited you have a house now. You're going to make the most beautiful bride!!! I got married in 2007. I look back and think, Wow, that was something we didn't need to buy 😢. The DIY decorations are the way to go. Keep the party small and intimate. Don't invite anyone that isn't a part of your life, not your Mom's cousins or Dad's old buddy from work. I spent too much time going around thanking and visiting strangers with each of my parents. I wanted to be on the dance floor with all my girls from grade school and High school. Don't stress about stuff that people will NEVER remember. Please show your fans pictures after the wedding. I'm so excited for you! Take lots if photos. Especially of you and your groom. You'll never feel or look as beautiful as you do that day! It's that princess day.

Girl, you are so incredibly creative and talented. Thank you for sharing your ideas!

Wow amazing and affordable wedding DIY'S! You look so pretty Sara! I've been married 40years and I did enjoy this video 😊

October 2023 bride here! Thank you for this wonderful video! I am very behind on DIYs and the calendar just keeps on getting closer.

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I'll be married 36 years on June 6th.

I love all your videos but this one is my favorite, so elegant and simple "clean looking " I can't find the right word lol . These ideas could be used for milestone birthday parties and large family reunions, elegant baby showers ...

Nailed it again!! GORGEOUS ideas! Congrats on your future marriage

So nice to see a video of yours. I am having a very sad brand new empty nest sort of weekend 😩 so a video from someone I’ve been watching for years is a comfort.

My sister bought a wedding sheet cake from Wal Mart for my wedding that fed a lot of people. I bought a Dallas Cowboys Groomsmen Cake for my husband.

For my Daughter’s wedding last April, I ordered all the glass wear from Dollar Tree. I was very impressed with the quality of the glasses and the affordability.

Great, affordable and very classy ideas!!!!

You've already paid the ground work for your own wedding. Wow! Great ideas. Yes you could definitely have another job on the side as wedding planner. You must have helped someone else with these great ideas & where else? DT of course. I can't wait to see your dress & all of your decorations & things from your wedding. Have you got your dress ? You are going to be a beautiful bride. Just take deep breaths & don't stress yourself out. God bless both of you.

I am married for many years and really enjoyed watching all these DIYs . If anyone is getting married these tips and tricks are amazing. Mant people have back yard weddings so to speak. How elegant. Love it

I absolutely love weddings and I think I missed my calling in becoming a wedding consultant. I can't wait to see how your wedding turns out and I hope you make a KZread video so we can all see how the day went.

Just discovered your channel and let me say, because of you I will NEVER look at Dollar Tree the same again. You have a great eye and creative mind! Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with us.

I host a lot of showers and parties so I’m loving these ideas!

Really really nice ideas! Not just for weddings, but any celebration!!!🎉

You have so many beautiful ideas that your biggest challenge for your own wedding will probably be trying to decide what to use! 😄💕

I'm so excited for you! Do you have a date yet? I planned my wedding in the 2 weeks between Thanksgiving and Dec. 12th of 1972. No, I wasn't pregnant. LOL But it was during the Vietnam war and he was leaving on Dec. 27 and was gone until June '73. I didn't know at the time but he was on an ammunition ship so his ship had to sit with ammunition for others to offload. He made it back!

Congratulations sweet girl. I'm so happy for you. These are all fabulous ideas. ❤❤❤

All of your ideas are inexpensive, easy to do, and, most of all, very classy! Thank you for sharing, and I'm looking forward to any pictures you'll share from your wedding once your special day with your fiancée has come and gone!

My wedding was last year so I'm having flashbacks watching this video lol. Great DIY ideas and Congratulations again!

Sara Jane you're a genius!!! Love all of these ideas. I think a trip to the Goodwill for a lamp base is in my future.

Am so anxiously awaiting YOUR WEDDING !!!

All beautiful, you have a classy touch. I am sure your wedding will be the social event of the year! Everything will be gorgeous, can't wait for you to show us. .

Sarah Jane, you seem so bubbly! I'm so happy for you and this is a great video I'm sending to all my friends with kids around the marrying age LOL! Oh and I'm also looking forward to your next Walmar haul. I wish I could tell you how many things I purchased because of you.

These were some great tips! All of the projects were so cute. No one would know they came from Dollar Tree!

I'm not getting married but some of these ideas can be applied to different things like birthday parties, showers and many other things I am a true believer of using something in a different way in other words not the way it was intended to be used

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I'm not getting married, but I did notice that my local Dollar Tree had some really cute arrow signs that say things like "Cocktails", "Reception", etc.
