HELLO EVERYONE NEW TO THIS SITE

MY NAME IS KAREN AND MY FI NAME IS ROB WE WERE ENGAGED ON 2/12/03
OUR WEDDING DATE IS 09/10/04

I'AM A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED AND I KNOW I SOULD NOT BE. YOU SEE MY FI HAS THREE SISTERS ONE IS ABOUT MY AGE 24 AND HER FI PROPOSED TO HER ON 02/13/03 AND THEIR DAY IS 09/29/04. SO WE WERE TALKING TO THEM AND THEY ALREADY BOOK THEIR HALL. BUT HER FI SAID YOU CAN'T HAVE A NICE WEDDING FOR UNDER 50,000 AND I AM LIKE WOW I MEAN MY LIMIT IS 35.000-45,000 I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S IS A BAD PRICE. NOW HIS FAMILY COMES FROM MONEY AND WE ARE PAYING EVERYTHING ON OUR OWN.

SO I JUST WANTED TO SEE WHAT OTHER BRIDES BUGET WERE

THANK YOU
