Hey girl heeeey!!! I know I have been real ratchet and inconsistent with my blog post for that I am truly sorry. I have been real busy and a lot of changes (great changes) have happen in my life in the last 6 months. I will have a full video update on my YouTube channel at a later date to share all the new changes in my life stay tuned. Now lets get to the reason for this blog post, as I am sure a lot of you know I am engaged to be married 7/26/14. Wedding planning has been to say the least stressful as hell just to keep it all the way real. With the recent changes in my finances some days I felt like just going to the court house and just saying the heck with it all. I was not born into money so that whole tradition the brides family pays for the wedding you can forget about that it's all me *in my Drake voice*. Who came up with that tradition anyway lol shoot he asked me to marry him lol j/k. So what all that means is that I have had to find some very unique was of having this wedding, so I decided to do monthly post related to a budget friendly wedding. Where I will post tips and money saving ideas so that you can have a very nice wedding and still be able to afford it. The goal is to not have any wedding debt after the wedding so you can enjoy being Mr and Mrs and buy that huge home you always wanted, you know the stuff that really matters. Who knows maybe with my tips you may be able to take a really nice honey moon the day after your wedding instead of waiting years later like some have too.
When we were little girls we all dreamed of that fairy tale wedding and if you are anything like me then you have been planning for this day all your life. Why does it cost so much to have a wedding? What you will find during your wedding planning journey is a lot of people will try to take advantage of you. They hear the word wedding and automatically inflate their prices. I have noticed a lot of companies don't have there prices listed for this very reason. The biggest resource will be your family and friends you really have to reach out to them and see who will be willing to help with what. I know It could be very stressful not having a company and a contract to work with. However when you are on a budget you will just need to rely on trust and the words of those who promise to help. I have a lot of tips I will be sharing in the upcoming weeks so stay tuned.
My first Tip of this series is to not let the hype of having a extravagant wedding cloud your vision on what really matters. That should be marrying the man of your dreams and building a life time of memories and a legacy for your children and family. Remember that after the wedding you will have a marriage that will last forever and keep God first in everything you do.
