Re: Temporary home
Hey Cate, Linds, Heart & Kath.... yikes this sucks today. I am not a fan! Sometimes clicking on someone's name then their posts takes you there and sometimes it doesn't.
Nothing much going on today so since we can't get on our board - I am going to work on wedding things. I need to finish these freaking STD's before I go insane.
Ooh good news! I think we're going to come in $3,500 under budget! I don't even know how but I almost threw up with excitement. Check back later and everyone have a GREAT Friday.
lots of love, Dreamer.
hi!
please share with me how you managed to come UNDER budget that much!
a good friend of mine was telling me about her BIL getting married, and his bridezilla FI. bridezilla's dad said if she could stay within the budget he would give her a cash bonus... however, it seems that her wedding planner has already gone $20,000 OVERbudget. as in... $20,000 more than the actual budget. YIKES.

Wait, were you the one Knot Annie emailed? What did you say? I think I would have written back "can you even read?" Lolz. Then I would change my SN. We only had one exchange in the past and she's a super biitch.

This morning was just a huge mess.
Hopefully, those in New Mexico don't mind us moving in temporarily. Anyone having better luck with NEY?

It's still acting up! When will this end??? lol
Eh the last post on this board was months ago. I think we're in the clear for a while. If not, everyone change their profiles to Sante Fe.

Oh my lord! She could have gotten a cash bonus and gave it up? Stupid!
Honestly, my first wedding (Hence my 2007 Knot account) was WAY over budget. It started at $5,000, went to 10,000, I think eventually ended up (with honeymoon included) around $23,000. I don't know I quit keeping track.
This time we set our budget firmly before we did anything and then we worked backwards. When I first started figuring I was about $2,000 over.
I cut the floral budget back $400, I cut our guest list by 5 people (yes this made a HUGE difference), and we get all of our stationary for free since Mike's aunt owns a printing company. I found an amazing deal on a dress that I love and I think that's basically it. Food was a big part of it. I absolutely refused to spend more than $1200 (including the 15% that's added on to my total catering bill for the management of Historical Parks *rolls eyes*)
One of the catering companies we had to use had amazing deals for "decreasing your economic load" during your wedding. We meet with the caterer in two weeks but I think it's coming out right on point.
Keep in mind I actually ended up adding more, I hired a DOC and rented a photobooth and we're still way under. I didn't get rid of anything, really. I don't know I how that worked out but somehow it did.

She emailed me first then emailed Shoes threatening to ban us. I honestly think she did and I wrote not such a nice message that she has not replied to which really pissed me off. I'm willing to change my profile to Santa Fe - never been but it sounds nice!
Aww Sunbird! It'll be okay.... anything I can do you cheer you up?
****and yes now I can suddenly post under my real SN****
yeah, I figured as much.
Initially I thought we'd stay in San Antonio after it messing up, but even that wasn't being consistent.

Doctor Paige prescribes a big bottle (or two) of wine (or booze of your choice) and sexytime with your FI. It's really the only cure.

ugh - just typed out a long message (well, you all know how I am, it was actually pretty short for me) and it just ate it...not typing it again right now.
hopefully we'll be back to normal soon - I'll check back later.
Since non of us can really get back to NYE to read the posts, I did add that if anyone wanted to be FB friends to PM me. I know that has been a common topic over there lately so just putting it out there.
I'm really shocked that they haven't fixed it yet, it has been going on all morning, you think that they would have fixed it by now. Stupid TK. Oh well I have always wanted to go to NM
eff FB. Everyone follow my blog. It's way better.

Aww, Sunbird, I'm sorry that your week hasn't been going well.
I think you should follow Dr. Paige's directions.
