The budget

The budget, the thing I think all brides dread. We are on a servere budget like the bride that has the $2000 wedding I am looking around the same thing or less. I think I am pretty thrifty and enjoy a good sale. Although this week a lone I saved a ton of money but not eating lunch out of the office not one day!!! Now working on a budget should be no thing, since I work for a non profit where budgets are always a crying matter!

Lately I have noticed all the hubbub about budgets and I am almost embrassed when I see other couples who have sent oh lets say $50K, is there not something else besides a wedding that you could spend that money and use. With todays economy I still can't believe folks can spend that on a wedding ( well I am sure they don't work for a non profit)

Anyway, I wanted to share with you all a breakdown of my budget or at least what has been spent so far.
