My fiance and I FINALLY!! decided on a location to have our ceremony and reception. We went 2 months past our set deadline b/c my mom kept giving me the run around (that's another story)
That being said, we have to pay 1/2 of the total amount to rent the venue upon signing the contract. My mom (who said she would pay for the venue) wants me to put the deposit on MY credit card; that she "will pay it off". I already have all of my student loans in full payment mode as well as one of my credit cards that I used to purchase books during school. My fiance and I want to buy a house shortly after we are married, and we decided that we can afford to do that since we do have some money saved, have good credit, and our debts are mainly our student loans.
I'm afraid that if I agree to put the deposit on my credit card, I will cause us to be ineligible for a loan approval and I will run a huge risk of my mom NOT paying it off like she said.
I don't know what to do. I really like the venue, but is it worth it?
