I'm now a Newlywed!!!

Hi guys!! My wedding ws 10-7. It was the most amazing experience of my life to date. I can't wait to see the pics!!

At a 30% tax bracket, $35K is roughly a net $25K. I'm told day care is an easy $1K/month...so now you're down to $13K/yr or a little over $200 a week. Add in work clothes, lunches, transportation...& there's not alot of cash left over when all is said and done. Not alot that you probably couldn't find a way to recoup through some rebudgeting. Long Island Business News ran an interesting article on it last month re: the financial aspects and it really made me stop and think.

Thanks Kate

It was amazing for sure!! The day just flew right by me, but I had the time of my life. I do NOT want to go through that planing again but I would love to go back and have the party again! We had the best time!
My whole fathers side of the family haven't been much of a family at all since I was young and my father was diagnosed with M.S. You always figure family should be there but I learned that sometimes friends are just as valuable or more.

Thanks PHYL

My sister and her mother-in-law have already put an album together for me of the pics they took. I am going over to house tonight for dinner to see them. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM!!! Tomorrow it's back to work and the regular routine! I guess it had to end sometime huh? :-(

Nice to hear

Nice to hear everything went great I wish I could go back and do it all over again without all the aggravation but my day was also perfect but still if flew by and I wish I could do it again. I still have yet to get my pictures back yet. The pictures the families took were definitely fun to look at. I was off the week before the wedding and then in Maui for 10 days it was really hard getting back to work and for the 1st 2 days I didn't do hardly any work. Enjoy this time of your life the newlywed time!!!!!!

Congratulations

Isn't it the best. I want to still go back to my day and have more fun. It's amazing how time goes by after that day right?

You sound so happy. I'm glad your day went so well.
