Ok so basically FH and I are alone when it comes to the wedding reception, my mom can't afford to give me anything and his parents cant either. We kinda wanted to do things ourselves anyway. So when we booked the hall we were told we had to come up with payments every other month. Basically financing the hall...
Anyone else doing it? And how do you feel about it. I'm a little bit under pressure but it makes me feel proud to work for it. I know Im a weirdo!

We are paying for 'most' of the wedding our self but, I dont think that is a bad idea because my hall doesnt want anything after the down payment until a year later they want 25%. I think I might send them small amounts anyway because its better than having one big bill in a year
i thought of sending them additional money or giving more for the down payment. However, we opened an online savings account at HSBC and the interest is pretty good so instead we keep it in savings and earn interest on the money.
You are so right hotair... I dont know why i didn't think about that, i have been keeping money in my regular savings account with like 1% interest.
Yeah my RH has a payment plan too 500 down then 1,000 for the next 4 months, then 5,500 6 months before the wedding ...then (the big one) 75% has to be in one month before the wedding and then the day of the wedding 10%.
