OH God, tell me about it.. this is the main reason why we chose to plan this wedding for a little over 2 years.... we take our time save all the money we can and take it day by day.. so far we have been fine and no stress and I truly hope it stays this way..

Thank God hubby makes alot of Mula and gets awesome bonus' about 6 times out the year

Yea, its just scary when you look at how much this is all going to cost. My FH made a excel spreadsheet and i dont even wanna look at it! LOL

OMG I made one too.. but most of it I dont have set prices on so it's really based on assumptions ( besides) SC and OMGGGGG Iwas sooo scared at the total so what I have to try to do is stay below my assumptions and we will be fine and DH will not want to kill me.. lol

Same reasons FH and I choose 2+ years also. We needed plenty of time to save and be able to pay things off w/o stressing. Also your right Hildie.. we need to book these vendors so we'll know exactly what we're paying! RH out the way now onto the next most expensive.. photo/video. I didn't even know it was so expensive until I started checking prices. Def had to add onto our orginal budget. Hopefully we won't have to do it anymore.

Omg I'm not even going to share final prices with FH. I'm just telling him who we are using and what that includes!

I'm right there with ya! I looked at all of the prices the other day and thought I was going to DIE- I kept saying there is no way in HELL we are gonna have this money, even having almost 2 years, especially since I'm only working part time now and going to school.

But today I just found out I got an $8000 scholarship I applied for!!!!

I was so happy!!! Guess I'll be getting that band I want now
