I'm sorry for the long break this time; as usual pursuing my Masters Degree keeps me VERY busy!!! But now that school's out I can devote more and more of my time to the WEDDING!!! Which means more blogging. As I buckle up into the bridal drivers seat once again I am faced with a new and not so fun challenge...
The Budget FAIL...
Yes it's true do to a job change for my "Husband-to-Be" we've had to make some drastic changes. We are still hoping to make our 10 Thousand Dollar mark, however, we are preparing for the very real need to cut back. The first cut back and the biggest cut back has been really hard and we still don't have it settled. That cut back is the dreaded "Guest List Shrink," we've had to cut our original 100 person guest list to a mere 50 and if the budget continues to flounder that may have to be dropped to an all time low of 25. We then made yet another drastic cut and that was with the reception. We cut out dinner and went to a "Cake, Punch & Mingle," idea with casino hopping likely to follow. Doing these things has cut our budget by almost half. Which still leaves us with quite an up hill battle but at least a more manageable one. In honor of our budget FAIL we'd like to hear from all the brides out there. Please offer up some comments, advice or stories about how you saved money on your wedding!!!
In order to help us cover some of our costs we are selling a Vintage 1980's Wedding Dress on www.RecycledBride.com PLEASE take a look. If you like it make us an offer or pass it along to someone who might be interested!!! THANKS :)
