If you and your fiance have decided to create every wedding detail yourselves, make a checklist early in the planning process of all the items the two of you will take care of as well as the details someone else will (that someone else being a vendor, relative or friend). There are the obvious items—invitations, floral decor, favors, the wedding cake, food and music—and then there are the not-so-obvious ones—china, glassware, linens, heating lamps (if you’re getting hitched outdoors), chairs, tables and flooring (also if you’re getting married outdoors).

If you can order items from fewer places it will make it easier when it comes to deliveries and billing. Rental companies will offer you a large variety of items but if their price tag is a little too high, look for discount sites.

For all your linen needs check out TableclothsFactory.com. The company manufactures every linen item you could possibly need for your wedding, including: tablecloths, chair covers, sashes, napkins and overlays for discounted prices. You’ll find linens in a wide range of colors and fabrics so you’re sure to find the perfect set for your wedding.

Don’t think you need more than a few things for your wedding where flowers are concerned?  Want simple and inexpensive yet still beautiful arrangements for the rehearsal dinner?  Are you planning on DIYing the wedding but want your bouquet done by a professional? Semi-Custom Quade, a line of wedding floral packages by Kerry Quade—one of Brooklyn’s top florists—allows couples to choose specific styles a la carte.

The designs available include classic white, green moss-inspired, mod and rich red.  You can order the elements you need—bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, bouts, table settings—as well as accessories—candles, birch poles and petals—at a discounted rate.

You can pick up your package at their studio in Red Hook or, for a small fee, have it delivered. There’s no set up involved so make sure you have some crafty friends to help arrange everything on your big day.
