Ya I wish I could say it was me, but it was Lance! He is very organized!

That's awesome! James doesn't even want to know how much we've spent...and I really hope the question never comes up =)

I agree, I don't want to let Amos know how much we have already spent either!!!

Guys just don't understand (with the exception of Lance) =)

oh yea - i totally managed the spreadsheet for us. i'd have paul guess every once in a while - and he was surprisingly right on!

Maybe I'll do a spread sheet this weekend.

 

On another note, I took pics of all my planning so far and am going to sit down this weekend and post it, so I can see if I'm missing something.

So, of course I'm not even engaged... but I like to plan, so I have a preliminary budget set up. Let me tell you, getting married is NOT cheap! Dang! So, my number is $29,000. GULP. We are paying for our wedding party to fly & stay, however, and that's $15,000 so I guess when you subtract that it's not that much.

I emailed Mariana at Dreams to see if she could give me some price lists on things like flowers and any extras for the reception that I might want. I want to see what areas I can splurge on and what areas I need to be more reserved on. So far between the ceremony site fee. food, videographer, photographer and accomodation for me and my FI we have already spent half of our budget. I felt as though money would go so much further in Mexico, which I think it does, but there are just so many things I want to do.
