While Jacob and I have been together for over four years now, I have learned far more in our first year of marriage than I did in three years of dating him. Everyone told us we would grow more than we thought we would during this first year, but as naive as we were, we didn’t think much about it until reflecting back on the year.

Here are 10 easy ways to save thousands of dollars (just going with #1 could save you upwards of $3,000) on your wedding day and still create your perfect Pinterest wedding.
