    It's the free stuff happy dance!

    I went into the pharmacy that I used to work at the other day and started chatting with my old boss. Apparently he's bored in the pharmacy and decided a few months ago to buy a limo company and... he told me I get a free limo for our wedding day!!!! Laughing  FI is elated.  We were planning on just using our own car (not that exciting).

    Anybody else get any awesome freebies from family/friends?

    Wow! That's a great offer! Congrats :)

    So far no freebies for me, wait, that's not true. My mom has a wedding cake business so our cake is free!

    That's awesome. I'm glad you were able to get a deal. I didn't have to worry about hair or make-up for my wedding, because my MIL used to be a hair stylist. My best friend did the bouquets for me and insisted on paying for it herself, which was a huge blessing.

    Too cool!  My hairstylist is gifting my hair for my wedding day.  I've been using her for almost 18 years now she's become part of the circle of friends who you consider family.

    Also, my happy day dance is because I got a really good tax return! Sigh of relief no worries now on the wedding! :)

    That's awesome! We have a free getaway vehicle as well, but nothing fancy like a limo...we're having a rustic/country themed reception, so we're using a family friend's 1960 Chevy pickup truck for our getaway (the back end is a flat bed, so we'll put bales of hay in the back for our wedding party to sit on when we drive away...should make for some awesome pics!)

    Yay free stuff!
