Today’s post is all about the numbers – our $5,000 wedding budget and how we spent the money. I’m mostly going to post the budget breakdown in manageable chunks but I’ll add notes here and there to help clarify a few things. Right. Ready? And away we goooo!
A Wedding Day Emergency Kit Checklist (for the Kiddos)
It’s important to be prepared and your wedding day is no different. I think it’s a good idea for every wedding to plan to have a Wedding Day Emergency Kit on hand… just in case (If you hire a wedding planner – they should bring one with them.).
