Hello Ladies I am really new at these whole wedding websites and forums, so please bare with me. I have a few questions and they might be a little silly but I thought it is better to ask then assum someone else will ask it in the future. So here goes.... My FI popped the question in September 11' and we finally set a date for October 12' which is our Four years together. I am super excited but very nervous about the planning and budgeting. We have set a budget for no more then 8,000. We have already put our deposit down on our Venue, which we both love and are obsessed with. We also decided to have a Photobooth because my FI really wanted one. I have not looked into much Photographer/DJ yet, but hope they wont be over to much. We also have a lot of family and close friends, that do these things professionally. We also decided to make all of our food and supply all of the beverages. One of the things we have been having trouble decide on is whether or not to have Beer and Wine. Now all of our family are drinkers, and we always have fun when everyone is comfortable and happy. However our concern is that both of our familys tend to take it to the next level and say things that might not be said sober. We are worried that DRAMA might come from it, and I do not want that, but on the other hand we want our reception to be fun and unforgettable. So I am so lost on what to do?? Another thing, How do you ask or hint that you are asking your family and FI's family if they are going to help you? Or if at all? I know a few of these questions have already been asked but in my opinion every bride has a different story and might have different answers to that situation. I am open to all opinions and suggestions. Thank you for reading. (Sorry if I missed spelled anything lol )
