Wow I am so pleased!

When we were making our budget up, we had to guess a lot of things like the price of the cake, my dress etc. Now I know a lot of defiant prices I decided to update the budget AND IT IS ALMOST 2 AND A HALF THOUSAND LESS THAN THE OLD ONE!! We must have over budgeted big time!!

Yippee doo!!!

I just over budgeted a lot I think, for example in my old budget I had guessed that out wedding cake would be about £300 and it is actually costing us £130!

Just shown Cupid my budget and now she feels better!

I over budgeted by nearly £4k, coz my friend told me her wedding cost £15k! I had to help Mark pick his chin up off the floor!

Ours was a big white wedding, and including honeymoon came to £11,500, but another friend organised her's for nearly £7K

Depends on what you want really!

Well done you - have to say I was the same.

I over-budgeted on absolutely everything and I was so pleased when I got all the definite prices in and it was cheaper.

Makes you feel good doesn't it!
