June 13, 2006 — -- It's June and wedding bells chime. But with the national average cost of a wedding at $28,000, saying "I do" has become an increasingly expensive proposition.

To ease the cost, some enterprising brides are finding creative ways to finance their dream weddings, such as finding corporate or local business sponsors who place ads in the wedding program or on place cards at the reception. One New York couple even rented out a baseball stadium and is busy selling advertising space on the billboard.

Is this tacky or practical?

Have you or anyone you know tried something like this for an upcoming wedding?
