Re: Paying for the wedding yourselves...

We have to pay for the photographer and maybe the flowers. Everything else is covered.

However, I feel soooo guilty when I see the numbers and what my parents are paying!!!

I think I will owe them FOREVER after this!

Re: Paying for the wedding yourselves...

I'm constantly freaking out about the money factor!! Hopefully, I'll get a job offer soon and we can start saving some more money. Weddings are so expensive,.

FH & I are paying for the majority ourselves and its been making our lives extremely tight. My father is giving us some money too so that should help a bit in the long-run.

Re: Paying for the wedding yourselves...

I'm not over my head yet since i havent signed anything yet ... thats why i am cutting all the stupid wedding things out .... and doing a lot of research .... and making most of the things , since i think alot of stuff is overpriced .... but i am still worried about how to pay for it

Re: Paying for the wedding yourselves...

we're just taking everything one step at a time since we are 1000% alone in paying for the wedding. We have the big things out of the way like the RH and photographer and we have set up payment plans that are very very manageable. We just have to make sure not to get caught up in the little stuff that may pop up and subtract significantly from our budget.

We want to be young homeowners probably within 2-3 years of our marriage so we are thinking of things in a broader scheme. Ex. Do you really want a limo or a jacuzzi in the master suite?

Re: Paying for the wedding yourselves...

I look at the deposits we have in, the price for what we dont have, how much we DONT have in the bank and neither of us have full time jobs (he works Part time while in school, I am still looking) and I get panicky.
