but I know you 08'er girls are wonderful and wont mind helping me out...
but FH and I are unsure how to set a realistic budget for our wedding-- we dont have anything booked yet. We want to get married May 24th 2009 it is the Sunday before Memorial Day so we can have it at night which is great. But we are still unsure we might end up getting married August of 08 (but not too sure cause FH will be in Japan till July of 08 and I will be planning alot of it on my own- so we have to check out prices and decide which is best for us)
anyway- sorry for the tangent lol
we were thinking around 30,000-40,000$ budget hopefully. we are pretty much paying for it ourselves but have a good amount saved up already....
we are inviting around 150-175 people and we are thinking 100$ pp is a good price and our hall would prob go for 25,000$ the most and still have a good amount of $ for other vendors- so besides the hall the photo/video are the next most important thing to us but we are so confused on how to budget (flowers/dress parents are buying so we are covered there and FH's parents =RD)
help please!!!
sorry i know it is long

thats how my FH is...i mean he has a couple credit cards but pays everything on time and even has Excel spreadsheets for every month and his bills and balances his account on Excel-- he is anual... he got mad at me when i payed my cell phone a day later
thankfully i am getting to be a little more like him- no excel spreadsheet yet
This is what i cant understand...FH is extremely good with math, he can do insanely hard calculations in his head and figure it out quickly...even those some calculations faster than you can do it on a calculator...Not only this but he is OCD, and i really mean OCD...everything else has to be perfect, in order...but when it comes to money all of these things go right out the window...Being great at math and being ocd should make you the best at handling money
He is a shopaholic, and you dont even know whenhe does it all the time, bc he loves shopping online...then ill see packages in the house like hmmm wheres this from.
He does pay everything on time, but he loves spending money

that was FH before we got engaged...he was so impulsive and if he wanted something he would just get it...and i am so opposite i hate spending money on myself and things i dont need....
but he got better with shopping, but thankfully he was always so good with keeping track of his spending and everything-- for some reason he thinks if he gets audited he will be safe
