Search in your own words. Describe what you need or ask a wedding planning question.
For all the brides savings for the wedding themselves (parents not paying, taking out loan, ect.) are you on target? I have 3 more months and I think Im on target but not sure? Anymore getting nervous? 2008 is so close!! Anyone think they will be short? what will you do if you come up short?
Worse case---Im thinking Im going to open up the envelopes right there in the bridal suite to pay the tips.

HA! i just figured this out ( i should be working LOL) and as of this moment we have enough for EVERYTHING except for the tips. . . like literally on my wedding day the account is going to have $400 left in it. . .so we need to come up with about $2000 for the tips. . . I started rolling change the other day ( not joking ) and i just want to get that extra money in there so we REALLY have nothing to worry about !
Your soo lucky! Tips are optional and you will def. be able to come up with the 2k no problem! Everytime I think Im on target, I think of something else I need. And Im also counting on alot of NOs too!

i am gonna pull a heist
i've often asked if anyone is with me to pull a caper...so far only kellybean is in....
Oh my god... My Fiance and I are wayy off!!!! The reason is because we went wayyy over our budget... We are about 10K over our budget... We really have to pray for NOs! But I have Mom to help me out to so thats good... We recently started rolling change too!! Believe it or not we saved over $200.00 in 6 months (went into savings)... Not to much, but more than we had before... I'm totally off target!!

i stress everyday about this and i think we may be short but we're gonna wait til the end of april to see if we are then FH is gonna sell is racing car.i really dont want him to cuz thats his baby so im trying to save even more now.
No way we are far behind due to taking money from the wedding fund for our apartment. I keeping looking for a third job but no one is hiring me so we have no clue what we are going to do.

I think I'm on target. A while ago I deposited half of the wedding costs (FH and I are splitting the costs 50-50) into a CD. It prevents me from using that money for other things, and it's earning interest. I can't touch it until February 2008 and by that time I'll have gained an extra $1k in interest on it! With our budget right now, this CD will actually end up paying for over 1/2 of our wedding.
We're working on it. I put myself on a tight budget, and am going to move back in with my parents 2 months before the wedding to save some extra money. As of now, we should be ok...but alot does depend on how many guests say yes.
