Hello! So my boyfriend and I have talked many times about marriage, and we both know that in time, it's what we want. Neither of us want to get married too late in life, and we've been looking at marrying after we both graduate college.
He knows what job he wants in life, which would put him into the work force once he graduates, but I'm looking at med school. I know med school can be long and tough, and I don't like the idea of having a wedding while I'm in school.
At this point, both of us are aiming to graduate a year early which would give me a year off between college and med school. What I'm particularly concerned with at this point is how we will manage to fund a wedding. Both of our parents are putting in a lot of money towards our education, and at this point, I highly doubt that they will be able to help us contribute much. We've both looked at getting jobs, but it's been really difficult, and it feels as though no one's hiring right now. We aren't looking to have a huge grand wedding, but even a small one is expensive.
Do you think it would be tacky to have our registry be that which helps us pay for the wedding? Neither of us need house things as we won't be buying a house for a while. The liklihood is that we will be in one of our parents' homes, but I don't want to look too far into the future. The whole ordeal with money is just making me nervous about how things will work out and any advice would be fantastic!! Thank you all!!
