I’ve been in a Steampunk state-of-mind for a month now, since my Steampunk Up Your Wedding article so I thought it only appropriate to wind it up before my next article comes out in the Unique Bride Magazine and today I have an amazing wedding created on a budget of only $500 NZ.  Yep, you read it right, Five Hundred!!  It can be done!!! So let’s wrap up our Steampunk month with a budget wedding which stars the now famous corset that started off my love affair with this theme.

This is the corset by the frabjous Gallery Serpentine that started my love affair with Steampunk.
