Save the PDF to a file in a specific folder, and then mail it as attachement. By @w0rldart

define('BUDGETS_DIR', public_path('uploads/budgets')); // I define this in a constants.php file

if (!is_dir(BUDGETS_DIR)){
	mkdir(BUDGETS_DIR, 0755, true);
}

$outputName = str_random(10); // str_random is a [Laravel helper](http://laravel.com/docs/helpers#strings)
$pdfPath = BUDGETS_DIR.'/'.$outputName.'.pdf';
File::put($pdfPath, PDF::load($view, 'A4', 'portrait')->output());

Mail::send('emails.pdf', $data, function($message) use ($pdfPath){
	$message->from('us@example.com', 'Laravel');
	$message->to('you@example.com');
	$message->attach($pdfPath);
});
