African American Weddings

Did you fell overwhelmed towards the end....

When you were down to the wire? I'm sitting here reviewing the list of the final things I have to do for this wedding and my reception, as I'll officially have 30 days until the wedding tommorrow and 51 days until the reception at home.  I'm just thinking about all the money we've spent here and there and the final items we have to take care of, i.e. boarding the dog, getting our plane tickets for our reception, etc. I'm like my Lord where are we going to find the rest of the money for this. I can't wait until this wedding is over. I would probably be crazy if I actually had a bridal party and a full blown wedding to deal with. I keep trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel once we are married. No more wedding expenses and some of our other expenses will decrease, such as the need for us to not have to carry two seperate health insurance policies. Well the gubment pays for his (retired military).  I wish tommorrow was October 31st LOL

    Girl, I feel you! On top of last minute wedding expenses we have homeowners insurance, car taxes and homeowners association fees all due this month. I can't wait until I am on our honeymoon sipping a drink with a little umbrella in it!

    My point exactly. On top of wedding expenses everyday life must go on. I think I might call Bank of America and tell them I'm skipping my mortage this month as a wedding gift from them. LOL They'd be like Girl Bye! LOL

    Hi Ladies: I agree with you both.  When I start thinking about all the money spent I start getting headaches and I have a destination wedding (less ppl).  But you know what 60 guests and trying to hotel and activities together is a pain in the butt.  Thanks for letting me vent right along with you all :)

    Soror! I feel your pain. I have a little over three months left and I just want to throw in the towel with this wedding stuff. What makes it worst is I never got another teaching position! I'm not really nervous more like SCARED! I know that the good Lord and my hubby to be will take care of me. I'm sure they will do the same for you!

    I know it will work out for you, as well as all of us. My fiance said I just want to be your husband, everything else is secondary. I was all in after that, until he started getting in my nerves 5 minutes later. I am just in prayer overload the next 30 days.
