( He works the family business in Miami and I knew I Had to move if we were to stay together) ANYWAY, A couple of weeks ago we went house hunting, Not thinking we would buy ahouse this soon, but the otherday a lady that owns the house we love accepted our offer!!!! Now I am getting worried about planning the wedding and getting the house!!!

I need some way to get rid of the stress. Any ideas???

I know it can be alot to deal with. Fortunately we already have our house, but we're in the process of major renovations and the wedding is 3 months away. It's alot to have on your plate at one time, but you WILL manage. Take things as they come, deal with the most essential things first, and let everything esle be secondary. Good luck!

the house is definately more important, as that will be there for years to come... we also buying and planning at the same time and what helps me is to remember is that the wedding is one day, you dont need to most expensive things to make it a beautiful day

We are in contract now. It is stressful--the mortgage part the most stressful part, believe it or not. It is definitely possible, and your wedding is far enough away so that the house stuff should be all settled by then. Good luck!

We are in contract right now too! And I'm not even working! I go to Grad School... thank god, FH has a good job, and my grandparents and his parents are helping us with the wedding,... although, I can still see that we may have to take out a loan! STRESS! But, I know in the end, it will all be worth it,... at least it better be!!!
