I am struggling to pay for my wedding. I have no help with anyone in my family or his. I am a mother of 3 and I cant afford anything else. It isnt that I went over my budget it is we had nothing to spend. I have racked and scraped and I have know idea where the money is going to come from. I am over stressed and feel like calling it off and throwing in the towl and having a wedding I can afford. COURTHOUSE!! I feel that I am being selfish but, I want a wedding it is any girls dream!! I understand that I had kids b4 my marriage but, that what happend. It is very important to my kids for me to have a "wedding" or I would of ran off to a island and called it a day. I settled for everything in this wedding. the place mostly.
But, the only thing that I wanted was a horse & carriage! Its my dream it is 275 but, I feel that I should be allowed to have something this is MY wedding day. I just really dont know where this money is going to come from. I have tried thinking and I come up with nothing!.
My whole wedding was paid for with stuff I sold on e-bay or garage sale money. I am overly stressed and dont understand why no one will help me. My family loves my finace, but it isnt there. My dad left me when I was little and I was raised by my mom alone.. I cant ask her to spend money I know she dosnet have. & I respect that! On the other hand his parents havent asked to help out at all! I am speachless I feel that they must hate me. Or something! Please help me find a way to make my dream wedding possible! I understand that it is only a "wedding" but in my eyes it is suppose to be the most happy day for a bride. I have paid for everything! It is unrealistic that we can pay for it ourselfs. Maybe I should of realized that no one cares about marriage anymore. It is only a paper right?
To me it is suppose to be a joyful event shared by the ones you love. It hurts me that everyone around us knows that we have 3 kids and we both work and support ourselfs. I thought that there would be more people that would want to share the cost in this or at least offer. I am not wanting a hand out I just want someone to notice that we are living on 2,000 a month taking care of 3 kids and paying for everything. Everyone always says I cant believe that you are pulling this off. It is goign to be beautiful and I am not pulling it off. I am struggling to complete this wedding and still have HAIRI have already paid for my dress, both my daughters dresses, my sons tux, I only have little things. 250 more for my pics, 130 more for my flowers, my horse and carriage 275 . I am almost there. I just wish that I can pull this off without help or having to ask my aunt that I know could help me. I just dont understand why she hasnt offered!! I dont want to ask her I want to pull this off but, it isnt looking good. 1,000 and I would be set! I just think why did my father have to be a SOB and y isnt he around paying for this he has done nothing my whole life!! I am almost there. I guess I just needed words of strength :(Thats the only thing my horse and carriage is doing taking me to the reception from the church.. I have the center peices and food and basically everything else. its just the few big things that i need to finish off.. BLAHAMEN! That is true I want it more then anyone! No one else cares about it  |
