Check (Doing the cabbage patch over here)

egammo3 · June 2012

The Lord is good ALL the time, and ALL the time The Lord is Good! I never really post checks because by the time, I get ready to type I've done so much, and can't remember it all. But, Imma remember this one and sing it to mountain tops all while I'm praising my God, cause he made it all possible.
-THE VENUE IS PAID OFF! Just made the final payment today. Ya'll don't understand how I've waited for this day to come lol. Every month I damn near wanted to cry as I wrote those checks and thought about how many pairs of shoes and how many outfits I could've purchased. But being young, it really taught FI and I a lot about prioritizing and financial responsibility. On top of that everything was paid off from our own personal accounts, no loans, no credit cards... A blessing!

Now, its just the little things such as getting a few items for my centerpieces from Michaels, Dollar Tree, and the flip flops for my BM's, and of course Programs.

Yes, girl! When we first set out to do this, we were skeptical because it was ALOT of money just for one day. Hell, I could've put a huge dent in my car note, but, now that it's done I'm relieved. I guess it was the missing piece to the puzzle that I needed to put it all in perspective that I'm actually getting married in 3 weeks.
