Oh I so am and Im starting to have nightmares about it. But FH keeps telling me not to worry like he has a hidden stack of $ hiding somewhere. and if he does, GREAT but I highly doubt it.

i was over budget from day one. i didn't know how much things cost so i budgeted wrong. i didnt know gratuity and taxes and stuff should be included so lets say i booked a place for $100 per person. i thought i was in budget but then after all the gratuities, it came out to like 125 a person. ack! and im having like 300 people. thats a lot of money and voila! im overbudget on day one. ugh.

Re: Is anyone else over budget????

def over budget!!! but i think some of the reason for this is because i made our budget up for each vendor without looking to see the normal prices.

I budgeted us for $1000 for flowers. we went over

I budgeted us $500 for limo. we went sooo over.

Ditto
Our biggest problem was that we never set an official budget. We just assumed we'd find a way. Now we have no choice. Nothing like having two jobs!! FH keeps telling me it will all be worth it and i agree. What would a gorgeous wedding be without a mountain of debt??

Re: Is anyone else over budget????

my first budget was absolutely ridiculous. I thought we could pull off a decent wedding for $15k. That tells you how anti bride I am. I never knew how much everything would cost, I had noidea everything I would need OR tipping guidelines.

Thank goodness my mom stepped in and covered the whole reception, FMIL is covering flowers and RD, now WE ARE ON BUDGET!

haha
