Re: budget
Tips for all of your vendors-they can really add up. Hair/Makeup Wedding rings
If you haven't already check out the Knot's wedding budgeter. You can fill in the amount you want to spend and it allocates $ to every item, which you can then adjust for your actuals. You can also add in any extras not in the budgeter-like tips.

Rehearsal dinner Bridal shower Day of jewelry and accessories Bridesmaid gifts Ring bearer/flower girl things Wedding rings
Programs for ceremony? Do you want to do bathroom baskets? Are you/do you want a musician for the ceremony or is the DJ taking care of it?
I'll probably think of others...

it depends on each situation. for me, my mom's paying but i know another girl who's paying for her own shower.

No honeymoon right away. Fh is in school
I am going to be giving bookmark out thanking ppl. Was thinking of giving something else but not now. Fh wants to I think. Will have to redo budget. But may also make some more ppl b list or may just drop people to bring no guest. I have to look at list again with fh to see what we can do
He is thinking of inviting his chours frinds with out gf and maybe without wifes. I can see the no gf but I am not sure of the idea no wifes

Re: budget
Yeah, Im not so sure about the no wife idea... Whats the point of it anyway? If it's the money thing, do you not think people will cover their plate and you'll be short, or you just can't come up with it up front? May upset certain people and then they wont come, which could be kinda sad...
We are doing a donation for our favors. My mom and step mom died of cancer. We can give whatever amount we like and at least we know it's not something that's just gonna sit somewhere- that we spent a lot of money on.
I'm curious what you're going to do with flowers. We have a tight flower budget too. I keep coming up with low budget put it together yourself ideas and FH keeps laughing at me saying we can't do that bc it'll create too much worry the day of... Which is true. But God would I love to go to a wholesale in the city, buy a bunch, get cheap stuff from a craft store and just make it myself! LOL.
