Couples are always trying to cut wedding costs, though mostly for themselves and not you, judging by the thousands of dollars you have to drop on airfare, hotel rooms, rental cars, and wedding gifts. Married people are dicks. At least make sure you aren't forced to stand by a cash bar without the silent dignity of a plus-one, by hipping your foolishly betrothed bros to Bridal Brokerage.

Appealing both to couples who broke things off and want to recover deposits, and those who want to get married but are either a) on a budget, b) bad planners, or c) have an "accelerated timeline" (pregnant? Pregnant.), BB arranges the transfer of cancelled nuptials by coordinating with booked venues, caterers, DJs, photogs, florists.

Couples just need to provide their budget, location, ideal date & # of guests, and BB'll do their best to match you with a suitable package that's already been reserved, facilitate payment to the original bookers, and even assist in sending out save the dates and invitations -- if there's any justice, yours will cover you and some girl you're hoping to get intoxicated without spending thousands of dollars.
