Regrets

its stressful how much money it ends up being, but just know that its going to be the best night ever and it will all be worth it in the end.
ive wondered and wondered how couples pay for weddings, and every persons response is ..... you just do it, you dont know how, but it gets paid for.
there is a light at the end of the tunnel, just be patient and cut back on spending as much as you can and save whatever you can...
if your parents are giving you a gift, ask them how much, and maybe instead of them giving a gift that night, ask them to pay for a vendor that equals their gift. this way, you dont have to make those payments and it feels like less stress because you dont have to worry where you are going to get the money to make the payment.
