Oh sigh!

Hello Ladies and gentlemen (if any log on to this website),

Sometimes I feel like I am going to explode with this wedding planning! It has been a roller coaster ride since my engagement in December. With the MIL having a temper tantrum in January and forcing us to move in together before our wedding to having to reverse our budget to live together and then saving for the wedding to everytime we try to save, something crazy happens-last night our puppy got sick and we had to rush him to the vet-to my family reminding me that it's getting closer to our wedding date in November and that we do not have time to be wasting. Please keep in mind that it is a DIY and our budget is around $4000 dollars and we do not even have half of that saved because of circumstances that have happened since we moved in. I know we will be fine, but it is hard to stay positive at times. In addition to all of this, people will offer their help, but then have their opinions when I present them with what I want-my mother is one. I love her, but I have no choice in to become a bridezilla! Or another thing, I am faced with is that they will offer to help, but only offer those words! Lol. I have to laugh to keep from crying at times. While all of this is happening, I faced with some rude and mean coworkers from hell and am trying to change my career to teaching since I can not see myself like this for the rest of my life. Ahhhhhhhhhh! I just had to vent.

Thanks everyone! Yell

    In regards to the MIL-long story short, he lived with her and i lived with my parents, we dont make that much and she started acting up- became angry when he spent too much time with me, sending rude texts to him and the list goes on until an argument happened and he left. Since i know that we were barely starting out, we decided to move in together because he had no place to go and it would be more affordable to move in together and save money.

    I guess it was a choice made by us because of her reaction to her losing her son or atleast that is what she thought at the time. And when I saw my finance with no where to go and barely starting from scratch again since he had been laid off and just received a new job, I decided to stick by his side and adjust my beliefs and do what was right.

    Have you put down any deposits that you will lose if you push back the wedding until you can afford it? Some venues may also let you keep the deposit if you book with them just for a different date.

    Thanks JCBSJR. We are really living tight right about now and everything is going towards the wedding! So I do see us having the wedding in November. I just had it in my mind and had to vent. That's all.

    How would the both of you living together be any cheaper for the both of you than you staying at your parents and him living by himself in a small apartment?  If anything it could be cheaper because he could get a smaller place, thus saving you money.

    Ditto this. Not that it's necessarily relevant, but I'm curious, too.

    Shiny you should see my finance.  It has nowhere to go, either.
