Ok, so I'm know I'm not very active on this board. I'm much more of a lurker. I just wanted to spill a little bit to women who would understand.
For awhile now, I've been wishing this would all be over, the planning, the wedding, the drama. Now, I just want to get married. I want to see him when I come down the aisle with my dad, with all our friend's and family, and be made HIS wife. That's what's important, right?
I've been planning this wedding for a year and half now, and it's hard to believe it's about to come to an end. Would I change anything? A few things... our photographer worries me, the decision not to do a video, wondering if my desire to stay in this "budget" that was set is going to kick me in the end.
I did SO many things DIY, or figured out a way to cut corners. I made my own centerpieces, I hemmed my own dress, I made my headpiece(not wearing a veil). Our caterer is fantastic and has been awesome! Our venue, and everyone there as been great. Every single person I have dealt with in the last year of planning has been amazing. Our friends... one is our officiant, one is a baker who is doing our cake, one is a DJ... It's because of all these people that I am going to have a wedding I can be proud of, under $10,000! It can be done!
I promise when everything is over, I will come back with reviews on every single vendor I have dealt with. In the meantime, should anyone like to know WHO, for the own budget , message me. Until then, I wish all the brides here luck, stand your ground, enjoy, don't stress. In the end, it's you and him
Thanks for listening.
