FI set a budget of $5000 from the beginning. We didnt have any money saved but were paying cash as we went. I felt everything was going smooth and well under control but starting to panic a bit. We are 5 months out....FIVE!! and I just caved and hired a day of coordinator. FI knows the caterer (a mom & pop type of business) so he was dead set on their food (which was supposed to be buffet prior to covid). The coordinator is assisting with servers for a plated meal as well as wedding/reception set up. I'm happy about that, now I dont have to worry! Hopefully this will be a worthy expense.

We still need to pay for attire for FI and our children. And finish diy my centerpieces, bouquets, bouts, corsages. Oh, shoot, I need to contact the bakery. 🤦‍♀️I'm scared we are going to run out of money!!!!

Take a deep breath it’s going to be ok, I completely agree with hiring a day of coordinator if you want to. I’m looking in to doing the same. Also I am looking in to doing sheet cake for guests and a small cake to cut for the two of you.

You got this girl!!! Our budget was 5k but we went just a little bit over because our venue is allowing us to bring in our own liquor so we won’t have to serve the cheap stuff lol. Your going to be fine just breathe.
