Let me be clear, a dollar store is not the place to buy most of your wedding supplies and decor. Some things you shouldn't buy for your wedding - no matter how tempting that $1 price is -include fake flowers, self-stick, giant, white bows, and tealights. The first two are self explanatory. I say 'no' to tealights from a dollar store because burn time is important. You don't want your candles to burn out long before the party is over.
Now that you have been properly warned, here are some great steals for every bride...

Love these garden hooks for ganging lanterns.
Flip flops for your guests on the dance floor really show you care. 
There are always lots of signs to be made (menus, instructions, storyboards...). These little easels are a great way to display them. 
If you're having a toss garter, might as well throw one that didn't cost an arm and a leg.
White tissue paper is great as an unseen filler in the bottom of baskets and other containers.I encourage you to walk the whole store and see what you find to fit your needs. Just say no to tacky. Also, keep in mind that some things they sell are cheaper elsewhere. For example, I saw small bags of river rocks during my shopping trip. However, if you need a lot to fill a bunch of vases, buying them in bulk would be cheaper.
Happy deal hunting,
