Yes that is correct. I have been engaged for about 72 hours and I don’t know where to begin with planning. Luckily, I started 2 magazine subscriptions back in March when we went ring shopping and picked up a couple of books and Houston specific wedding magazines Monday at Barnes and Nobles but otherwise not quite sure what to do. I feel like I need to be doing something or come up with a plan of attack but maybe I’m over thinking things and just need to step back and enjoy this week.
Every book I pick up and person I talk to say pick a date so I guess I’ll do that this weekend. Our church is wide open so that should be good. Hopefully my first choice for wedding reception places are open as well but…
I’m worried about the budget part. I am NOT a budgeter and have the worst time sticking to a budget. I prefer lump sums or monthly maxes with my regular bills/expenses and stick with that instead of x amount for food, x amount for entertainment, etc. Not sure how this way is going to work. I guess I’ll keep reading and thinking about it so that I will be ready when it all starts coming together.
Oh this is going to be so fun…NOT! I hope I can make it through in one piece without blowing too much money or being too cheap. That is my other fear. I can be too cheap with important items so I hope I don’t do that. This is a day I will remember for the rest of my adult life. I know it won’t be perfect but it will be close.
