Wedding Budget
Today we stand at $1,500.00!

I know $1,500.00 is a doable budget for a simple wedding but I just would like my whole family to be present and help celebrate at the most important day of my life. I would say $1,500.00 would be a challenging budget for me because I am super picky and everything has to be perfect. Don't get me wrong, my main focal point for this day is becoming one with Mr. Steve Luster! All I know right now is DIY projects is the way to go with my budget. DIY projects are time consuming but I have to say you will be amazed at what you have created at the end of your project.

My check List contains the Following:

Ceremony Location: Pending
Reception Location: Pending
-Update 7/10/2010- I went to the Top of the Mar and I must say they have a great venue. Plus my the person that was assisting me had told me that if I want my ceremony at their location they would have it set up with all the chairs and everything for FREE... God is truly hearing/answering our prayers...I will post some pictures of the area soon!

Number of Guest: Pending
-Update 7/11/2010- As of today we make our minds up with the total amount of guest. Our minimum is 50 guest and our MAX is 100 guest.

It can be done Mrsluster! My beginning budget was $1,500.00 too, but we stretched it another $500.00 to $2,000.00. We did it and it was refreshing to have a nice balance in the bank afterwards to pay our mortgages. Congratulations on the budget!


Keep that budget!

@rodrhonda4ever: thank you for your support. To I went to see a venue and I was surprised at the offer they made for me. I couldn't be happier I stopped by the Top of the Mar to see their venue and what they offered. *I would have to thank my aunt June for giving me the confidence to seek this venue*

We don't really have a set date. It all depends on money. Our wedding really shouldn't cost that ...
