My Wedding Is In 3 Days
Personal Finance
I have to say, I’m feeling a little nervous but not terrible. I’m not really nervous about the wedding itself but rather nervous about being nervous (if that makes any sense).
From a financial standpoint the wedding has been tolling. I jokingly told my fiance she was no longer allowed to see the caterer anymore a few weeks ago because every time she did it was an extra thousand dollars added to the already exuberant cost. I definitely feel like we overspent for the event and could have cut costs in a lot of places. Its gotten to the point where as a finance writer I am embarrassed to say the total amount spent.
But it is her special day. We aren’t saving for a down payment on a house (or even in a starter home), have tons of debt to pay off, or aren’t saving enough for retirement so I guess its ok to indulge this once and hopefully have some great memories.

Just think of the memories you are both going to have. This is going to be one of the best parties. Stop worrying and enjoy the moment. What’s done, is done.
When you come back to reality, get busy with the pay-offs and the savings. Should be easier without a big expensive day in your future. Just hold off on the children for a bit :)!
