Prepping

Having to pay a second deposit on Thursday for the reception venue: $1,500.

The hysterical, therapeutic laughter when you and your fiancé realise how this wedding tends to cause sporadic 'pseudo-brokedom', and he suggests jumping ship and shouting everyone Subway instead: PRICELESS.

Oh wait.

I don't HAVE a Mastercard. Hell, I don't even have a credit card.

Awwww, how very exciting! When is your wedding date?? Hmmm... maybe best not to look at receipts and get sucker punched at the end? (FYI: DO NOT ever follow my advice. This is a sure-fire way to end up in some serious credit card debt!)

I'm very excited for you!!! :)

Yargh, the money part of wedding planning is the LEAST fun part. Yick!

I'm a newbie stopping by but LOVE reading blogs about wedding planning, especially when they are Aussie ones!

@ Charlotte: Nov 20th...! Less than six months to go now, how freaky is THAT? In an exciting way, natch. ;) Heheheh.

@ Breathe Gently: Ooh, a new reader! Helloooo, welcome! (Please stick around. :P) Although my blog isn't about wedding planning per se, I'm sure I'll have posts going forward in which I elaborate on the 'fun' of it all. :D
