So I am having budget issues with photographer and here is what I keep telling myself...

This is the day that you are supposed to do everything you want, go with your gut, pick what feels right...

Do you want to look back at your wedding day and think..'I wihs we would have gotten married at CLM?' (also, this is coming from a CLM bride...biased i know!)

What other places are you looking at? You might fnd that CLM is around the same price as the others anyway...

We are looking at Swan Club, Larkfield Manor and Crest Hollow
and then cheaper ones like Stewart Thomas Manor, Milleridge cottage and Smithtown landing or Tall Grass (Lessing)

If you really want it then I would book it. You only do this once so I would definitely do what I want. Good Luck!

Re: Please help with my RH.......

im sure you can make up the $5000 some where else in your budget. no matter what you are going to be spending ALOT of money on the RH so it might as be one that you LOVE.

take money out of things like your favors, flowers, etc... us 09 brides have plenty of time to do our research and find affordable vendors, so im sure you can take the $5000 from somewhere!

good luck!
