We dont even know the grand total of our wedding. We stopped looking at our total a long time ago!

We didn't really have a budget but we are trying to keep it reasonable...

I set up a budget and then realized I was way out of date I gave up. I went into sticker shock at first but now I am taking in one day at a time. Look for coupons-like Joann's is my favorite place lately and DIY. Go to the flea markets and use Craigslist.

Exactly my thought.. I still have a list and somehow it added up to 10 grand AHHHHH I never intended to spend this much money,. Somtimes I just want this to be done with so I can actually start to save some money!

The spending never seems to end. The little $5 and $10 here and there really add up. I just added some small stuff on the excel-ouch.

I sooo feel the same way! I feel like I'm being really frugal with all the little things and I've been doing DIYs to save yet everything just keeps adding up and up!!!
