Re: How many of you are....
we are!! and let me tell you - when your wedding is over it will be a HUGE weight lifted off of your shoulders!!!
DH & i had some help with the down payment of the house however, so i would love to say that we did EVERYTHING on our own, but we almost did!! we did enough to stress us out for the whole process so i know how you girls feel!!
....and we are closing on our house june 5th

I couldn't imagine, we toyed with starting to look for a house but we think we need to handle one big event at a time so after the wedding we will do the house hunting, but I can only imagine how stressful it must be!

Re: How many of you are....
It is like they are neck in neck......we have to have all the wedding planning done and the house renovated all at the same time. I know in the end it will be worth it especially since we bought the house when the market was at a low so we will make money on the house but right now it is just making me so anxious and stressed to try and get everything done.

Re: How many of you are....
We were freaking out just paying for the wedding ourselves. We are going to keep renting for a year or so after the wedding.. then we should have a down payment for a house!

I know tell me about it Everybody keeps telling me to take things one day at a time because you cant do everything all at once but I want my house to be all finished when I move in. That might sound terrible but I do. The house really is in move in condition but there are still somethings I would like to do if we can. Besides the small things like painting and new carpeting we need to fence in the yard, put a new floor in the kitchen and new countertops. I would love to re-do both bathrooms but we will see how it goes. That might have to wait until later, what ***** is that it seems like everything I pick is so expensive and things add up quickly. I cant even start to think about the fact that we also need all our furniture
