One Man’s Trash… Will Help Pay for My Wedding!!

Cynthia Writes:

So things are moving right along! We've put deposits on our reception site and DJ, so we have a place to party and music to dance to! & thanks to my friend Codi, we have someone to make our wedding cake and is giving us an awesome deal!
At the end of the month we will also be putting the deposit down for the photographer, and within the next few, the mariachi as well.

Now, how are we going to pay for all of it?! This is where you can do you part to help out a broke ass bride! No, we're not asking anyone to be "padrinos" (sponsors) and give us hundreds of dollars. Instead we're asking for your plastic, glass and aluminum! This is our way of making a little extra cash to pay for the wedding and saving the planet at the same time! We also figured, since times are tough people wouln't mind giving us their "trash" as much as they would if we asked for cold hard cash!

So far people have been very helpful and think it's a great idea. On the 4th of July my tia Victoria gave us our very own started kit! At work, my boss is letting me take all of the empty water bottles from the gym. Tim's mom has also given us big bags full of water bottles and beer/wine bottles. No she's not an alcoholic, she works at a restaurant!

Eli & Julio doing their part to help us out!!

Any donations will gladly be accepted! Just give us a call and we'll stop by to pick them up... unless you want to make a special delivery to El Centro!! =)

  1. Great photo of Timberly! You sould keep a chart of how much you've raised by recycling and post it on your blog. Or maybe just on the side bar add the total by month. I think it'll be interesting to see and it would keep us all on track as contributors.
