saturday's lotto is up to $177 million I believe....unfortunately though, i'm planning on winning it, so you'll have to wait for your fountains and tiaras.

hahaha the fountain is already done
Its so hard once all the big stuff is booked not to want the extras. Another huge $$$$ extras are the things the hall offers! we are already doing the vienesse but there are extra entrees and amazing stuff for the CH!

I think my problem is that I don't have a budget. Never made one, so I just keep adding and adding and adding. So the day of my wedding I can be found recycling cans at the local supermarket.

Re: I was doing sooooooooo good staying under budget..

We are trying to have a budget but there is no way that that is going to work. My FH and I were talking when we first started planning things and he said that he wanted to stay under a certain amount. I laughed because our reception is almost that much-nothing else included. By the way flower arches at the church is nice, but you are there for the shortest period of time out of the whole day. They take it down as soon as you leave. If you have planned everything else and you still want it then do it. Credit cards are wonderful
