Seriously, I can't find any decent figurines here in San Francisco; everything I've come across looks absolutely terrible. Does anyone know if there's somewhere in Washington, D.C. where I could send my bestie (who lives there) to pick some up for me? Or maybe online, though I'd really prefer finding something locally in the States if possible.

I was checking out cake stands in San Francisco earlier. Even though I’m getting mine from a local bakery, you can actually pick some up at a Trump store for $50 on the second floor.

I don't want to clog up the feed with links, so just type origami into your search bar and look for boxes—there’s some seriously cool stuff there.

You could even DIY some little boxes for those leftover cake slices you give to guests. For anyone still counting down the days until the wedding and looking for a fun project, you can totally assemble and decorate these yourselves. Here’s a quick look at how they might turn out:

All you really need is some thin cardstock, which ends up being way cheaper than buying pre-made boxes. Honestly, once you start doing things yourself like this, you'll see how much you can actually shave off the total wedding budget.
