After originally having a $2,000 photographer budget and having a hard time finding one who was available at that range, my budget had to be decreased because our bathroom remodel ran into A LOT of additional problems. But, after about 2 weeks of searching I finally found someone I could afford whose pictures were great and whose style matched our wedding. I booked with Lauren Zurchin!! We just have to meet up and do the whole contact/deposit - but I can feel the stress being lifted.
Bathroom is going to be done by the end of next week - so hopefully the rest of it goes smoothly. Then we are having new flooring put in our front hallway and kitchen because the Master Plumber we had to have come in got purple PVC pipe glue all over our tile - so I now have a patchy purple floor. But on the bright side - free new flooring is a bonus I guess!
