Bartering for a Wedding

Have any of you bartered for your wedding?

Definition of Barter:

Barter is a method of exchange by which goods or services are directly exchanged for other goods or services without using a medium of exchange, such as money.[1] It is usually bilateral, but may be multilateral, and usually exists parallel to monetary systems in most developed countries, though to a very limited extent. Barter usually replaces money as the method of exchange in times of monetary crisis, such as when the currency may be either unstable (e.g., hyperinflation or deflationary spiral) or simply unavailable for conducting commerce

This just seems like such a SMART thing to do! Our daughter just recently got engaged and planning on a Sept. 2011 wedding. It is CRAZY how much weddings cost nowadays! So..... we were thinking perhaps we could Barter to cut down on some of the expense.

She needs the following:

Invitations, save the dates, etc...

Flowers (either Hot Springs, AR or Fayetteville, AR area)
Muscians in (same area as above)
Limousine (same area as above)

Videographer (same area as above)
Photographer (same area as above)
