Ladies, I have never been this broke in my whole life and I haven't even started planning/paying for this wedding. I don't know how it's going to be done!

Re: BROKE!
You can do it!!! I had to pay off two huge hospital bills just as we started planning for this wedding and it can be done!!! You do have to cut back on some extras and eat out less, etc. but you can do it. Don't worry!!!

Re: BROKE!
Make up a budget for yourselves and decide how much you can realistically put away each week. There may be some things that you'll have to cut out of your wedding, but it can be done.

I probably could, but I can't.... the job I'm at right now is so stressful... all I want to do when I come home is have a glass (or 5 glasses) of wine and call it a night. So I probably shouldn't be complaining because there is room, very little room, but room in there for a second job, but I just can't do that to myself... I guess I'll just have to cut back on the wine.

Don't worry FH and I started with little or no money. We were able to save money for our big day. You still have plently of time to save money. Are you getting any help from your parents? If not FH and I took out a loan to help with the cost we couldn't save up enough money for. Don't worry things will work out. YOu don't want to spend your entire time dredding the wedding because of money issues. In the beginning I was and I only felt sad.
