Wedding Wire was so very helpful. I used some of their tools to pull off an incredible Vow Renewal Ceremony and Blind Wine Tasting Reception on New Year's Eve. My husband went along with what ever I suggested. Hey After 41 yrs together he knows how it goes. LOL. A lot of the Budget Categories I didn't need to use. I practically made everything myself. The reception was at our home, everyone had to bring their own bottle of wine, I made and printed my own invitations, program, and made my own slideshow with instrumental music only from the song list. I decorate cakes already, so that was a no brainier. When I first inquired with Wedding Wire, I wasn't sure where to start. Several individuals through the forum gave me suggestions and I chose ideas from each of them The colors were easy. Ruby red and silver, and I stayed with in budget, thanks to the budget tool. The checklist was also helpful. I didn't have to use have of them.

    Here are the last two pictures. I tried to upload the video of our processional, but having problems with it. I'll try a little later on that. I made my own cake and instead of everyone sitting, I used bistro tables and had the seating area in our family room. Even though we celebrated 40 yrs, I can say I still felt like a bride, not a diva or bridezilla. So, if you plan ahead and stick to your budget and check it often, you won't become discombobulated.
