~~~***QOTD 9/7/11***~~~

Original post by lindseynaggle

Good morning ladies, the semester officially starts for me today so I won't be on until later, but I'm hoping some of your answers to the following question can help me justify my own answers.

Today's question: So far, is there anything you have splurged on for the wedding, something you went over-budget? Anything you saved on and went under-budget?

I splurged on the venue, which is the worst thing to go over-budget on since it is the most expensive! Oh well, I love my RH. I also splurged on makeup, but in the scheme of things, it's not that much (at least that's what I keep telling myself!)

I have saved on almost everything else. I am not talking to vendors that won't bargain with me. My biggest savings was my wedding gown (where I was sure I would go over budget!) but that was just luck (they had my dress as a double sample in my size and color, it doesn't get better than that).

We went overbudget on photographer/video but we figure both are really important & when we looked around I think we just had an unrealistic # in our heads for what we wanted.

I haven't been underbudget on anything yet but we haven't booked florist & limos yet-hoping I can save some $ there.

Splurge - hiring a Band
Saved - invites, stds, flowers
