Don't worry Lisa, it will all come together. Just put on a spread sheet what you have spent so far and how much more you need to spend. I know its hard but just keep saving and cut back a lot. I know its much easier said than done!! I am in the same boat!
Save all bonuses and tax returns!! Let FH do the same thing too!! Trust me it makes a diff!!

Re: Just had a $$ meltdown....
I had one of those a few weeks ago, so I made some major household changes. Cutbacks, cutbacks, cutbacks!!! 1. Cut down the cell phone and cable plans 2. Cut down the guest list 3. FH is not allowed to drive to work anymore, saves so much on gas!! 4. No more eating out every other weekend, try not until after the wedding! Maybe the occasional chinese, but forget Manhattan! 5. Bring lunch to work everyday, no buying outside!!! This includes bottles of water from home and 100 calorie snacks! 6. Keeping the lights off in most of the rooms in the house, so ConEd doesn't get rich off of us! 7. We're sticking to the basics with the RH. It's already in the summer, $$$$, and they offer a ton of desserts, so we're cutting VH. 8. We also renegotiated our guaranteed minimum of 145 down to 100 and are going to stick to that # or close to it. This helps believe it or not. 9. I have kept my behind out of Sephora, Zara, Arden B, and all of my other favorite stores since July, and I've probably saved over $500, or more, just on 'on the spot' shopping! 10. We're on a budget!
Just figure out ways that will help you save and cut back expenses, and it will be ok
