Let’s face it: even the simplest of weddings require some sort of financial investment.
Unless everything from the marriage license to flowers is gifted to you, you won’t have a free wedding. That’s never been the point here at The Budget Savvy Bride. Instead, staying within your means while enjoying your big day is our wish for you.
Wedding freebies, though, are a real thing, my dears, and have we got a list for you. With our help and the help of all the vendors and bloggers below, you could potentially pay nothing for many key parts of your wedding. This includes invitation designs, printable signs, game ideas, favor label downloads, and more.

Free Wedding Stuff and Samples
Free Wedding Registries w/Perks
Wedding registries are not a new thing, but they have definitely evolved. Gone are the days when a couple was required to visit a store in person and manually add wishlist items to their registry. Heck, some registries don’t even have a brick-and-mortar location!
While practically every home retailer has some sort of registry, the following offer some wedding freebies. The most typical are completion discounts. These offers give you a discount – some as much as 20% – to order the remaining items on your registry after your big day.
A few retailers will also send you wedding freebies for completing certain criteria. For example, some will give you a free item for having specific brands or categories listed and bought on your registry.
While they have certain aspects in common, each of these registries is a bit different. Consider each benefit, the perks, and your needs, and sign up for the registry (or registries) that interest you the most.
