Can't believe

Can't believe it is time to pay our first payment on our hall today. It makes it feel so much closer, kinda scary.

We spread them out to give them a certain amount every 6 months. So we have one now and then next march and next september and then our final payment with our headcount 14 days before the wedding.

Re: Can't believe

make as many payments as you can! sorry, crashing! but by the time my wedding rolled around i had to dish out over $60K all at once because we had ONLY put down our first balance's on everyone. not fun.

Re: Can't believe

For our venue once we hit half way we don't owe anymore until the week before, but FH and I already agreed we are going to continue to make monthly payments so it doesn't sneak up on us. I also think I'm going to pay off most of the vendors asap so that I don't run into the same problem

Re: Can't believe

Same here! I dont want to wait until the last min and be stressed and broke trying to pay everything off.

Question: Does paying for a vendor upfront save any money than making monthly payments?

I don't think so but I could be wrong. I personally wouldn't give all the money upfront in case something happens. I know a person who I worked with booked their photography and then there was an investigation on the company and they lost all that money. Just makes me nervous since I have a year and half till the wedding. Even though I trust all my vendors you never know.
