Budget

No, it's important to remember that you will still have a life and things to pay for outside of your wedding. To come up with our budget, we decided how much we felt comfortable spending out of our current savings, then figured out how much we could realistically save each month and multiplied it by the number of months until the wedding.

As far as what you should splurge on and what you shouldn't, decide what your top three priorities are for your wedding. Food? Photography? Decor? Splurge on those items and try to cut back on others.

Hi there, Megan! I can totally understand why you’re stressed.

Is it just the two of you going to Hawaii? If so, you’re already making a large saving by not having guests.

As Caytlyn advised, you and your FS should sit down and see how much you are willing to spend on the trip, set up a savings plan, etc. Having a plan will alleviate a lot of stress! You can then begin working toward your saving goal and enjoy the trip without any money worries
