Every day there are tons of deals and freebies posted online re: the wedding industry, so I thought it would be a good idea to collect whatever we find here so our brides to be can take advantage.

note: if you are a vendor, this is NOT an invitation to advertise your products or services! this is for brides from brides. for all advertising, please post in the Bazaar Talk forum.
as an aside, the general rule is not to self-promote or advertise directly to brides except in bazaar talk. when you self-promote than i feel like brides aren't getting the best reviews or opinions because its always coloured by your desire to get more business. i think paklinks is turning into a resource for many brides across the world that are looking for vendors of worth and if a client or past client is reviewing a vendor's work and linking to them, or if a blog-reader is posting about a great deal on a blog, then their perspective is different. and hopefully in the end, the brides get an honest review, whether positive or negative, about a vendor rather than an ad by the vendor him/herself.
in this case, i think it'll be straightforward for a bride or groom to read about a deal and judge for him/herself if its actually worth the money or not.
