Blog: Wedding Blog (and life thereafter)
I'm up late because I consumed a caffeinated beverage from a certain coffee establishment that shall remain nameless. I will say that I managed to finish my wedding music playlist. I'm a bit irritated that I can't play all the music I want to hear and dance to because I have to accomodate everyone else :( Maybe I'm just tired or something.
I am getting a little depressed. I hope that all goes well as resonably as can be expected from a well planned wedding. I hope that my fiance and I will have a good life. I'd be happy if my dress fits and my chicken wing arms don't show at this point. I got my own credit card and I didn't have to bum off my siser's AMEX once again. I'm able to put gas in my car this week and next week. Thankfully next week will be the last of the highest and most horrible of gas prices that New York can offer 3.15 a gallon. Oh well should I be complaining when I buy coffee from Starbucks???
Anyway, going all cash and having a budget is going to be scary. This is the last my credit card days because after the wedding and honeymoon is Dave Ramsey time. Boy am I glad I'm not doing financial peace stuff now because I'd not be having a wedding at all. Be prepared to spend money. I don't care what anyone says. I've been to this one wedding prep site telling you how to save money with weddings...PLEASE. I would NEVER attend a reception where people ate off paper plates. OMG...that's taking the whole penny pinching thing too far. Yet, this whole wedding planning business is a continual reminder of my own personal lack of funds. If I can't afford a wedding, how on earth can I afford children? I have an $900 hospital bill (actually it's a stack of hospital bills) dealing with my pap smear to make sure I can have children in the first place.
Maybe I will start a financial blog after all the dust settles with the wedding. I'll turn this blog into the 'post-honeymoon how's married life treating ya? blog'. I'm confident that my fiance and I will be okay but one can't help but wonder. My nightmare is having to work and not be a stay at home mother and care for my children.

There's no way to know what the future holds, but you've got a committed partner to share it with. That's amazing.
Would you like a raw buddy for your last two weeks? I myself was looking to do a 2 week push of 100% raw eating and I can't think of a better way to do it than as a celebration of your coming nuptials.
Oh and PS I'm having paper plates at my bbq buffet wedding (hahahahahahaha - no sweat!) but I understand what you mean, it's money all over the place. If my parents hadn't given me 10,000 I wouldn't be throwing a wedding at all. But I'm really excited about all the gifts.
We actually have a pretty put-together house, so all we really want is the $$$$$ so we can buy our own house.
I didn't know you were going the equivalent of raw financially after this was all done. Wow. You'll have to keep us posted!
