Did anyone incorporate Goodwill (or second hand) finds into their wedding? If so, what was your best Goodwill find?

    I have bought about 2/3 of the lanterns for our centerpieces from Goodwill! I haven't paid more than $8 for one yet!

    I haven't been to Goodwill yet, but I will be making a stop there for things like centerpieces.

    I got our centerpiece vases for 50 cents a piece and they were brand new.

    Not mine, but I'm jumping in because my sorority sister found her wedding dress at Goodwill! She wasn't even looking!

    My beautiful venue had THREE fireplace mantles that we wanted to decorate. My mom and I scoured Goodwill and yard sale sites on facebook for candle holders - all different sizes and shapes. We did one mantle that was all cylinders, one mantle that was all silver and one that was all glass. They turned out beautiful!

    No goodwill finds YET but I've found a bridal silk robe, card holder, and throwing garter on craigslist. The lady who sold it to me was awesome!

    Vases for our floral centerpieces. They just need a coat of paint to match our theme and we'll save more than $10 on each Centerpiece

    Yes!! But, I work for Goodwill so it would be more of a shock if I didn't!! I'm stocking up on milk glass vases. I was amazed that at bridal shop they were asking over 5 dollars per vase, I've been buying mine for .75 - 1.75 after my discount! I'm trying not to go to crazy yet, because we don't have any plan solidified, but I will more than likely be buying lanterns and candles soon!

    I haven't looked yet. I am trying to get through some of the bigger stuff first but I plan on going to look for vases for center pieces :-) Spent A LOT of time with my old roommate at the outlet center for her wedding Smiley smile

    My sister found all of her vases/trays/plates for her centerpieces at good will, and I found most of my jars and large apothecary glasses there as well! Super cheap and exactly what we were looking for

    Vases and picture frames. I got some really elaborate frames with minor chipping for about $5 each, spray-painted them gold, and used them to hold various signs.

    Haven't purchased anything but there are always a ton of vases and candle holders at any thrift store I've been to.

    I love thrift shops but so far haven't been lucky enough to find any good scores for the wedding

    (half my house is repurposed thrift shop finds though)
