I'm curious what has been the most stressful for everyone? We did a lot of DIY to save on money and what not and we are coming down to the wire (3 months out) and still owe about 5k (actually a little less because our parents are both chipping in a little) so closer to 3k but it has been stressful....

We did a lot of DIY to save on money and what not and we are coming down to the wire (3 months out) and still owe about 5k (actually a little less because our parents are both chipping in a little) so closer to 3k but it has been stressful. WELL I just got a raise today! which added 6k a year to my salary (which isnt a lot in the short run but i will definitely take that)! That was such a huge blessing and has definitely made me feel better about these last few financial areas!

Now my big stress is arranging everything (set up) and coordinating with vendors on timelines so everything goes on a decent schedule. I wish I hired a coordinator but definitely wasn't in the budget. lol

Congratulations on the raise, that's so exciting!

So far for me it's been the guest list. My parents are being VERY generous and paying for about 75% of the wedding and asked us to keep it at 150. FH wants to invite everyone he's ever met so our master list (before any cuts) is 215. We need a guest list for our STD's by early September. I have time but I've been so stressed about it that I don't even want to look at the list.

Congrats on the raise! That same thing happened to me, I switched positions at work unexpectedly and was able to get promoted during the planning process so that took a huge turn for the best! The most stressful thing was definitely the bridesmaid dresses and invitations. Those thins are so tedious for some reason, but my bridesmaids all have their dresses, and as soon as the invites are out I will be so relieved! Happy planning!

Oooo congratulations on the raise. The most stressful thing has been money. We are under-budget but I still have these moments where I freak out and say can we pay for this. It is absolutely stressful!
