Holy Guacamole!



It has been a couple weeks since my last post. I blame it on the fact that I get married in exactly 3 weeks! Ahh!
It is so soon because my fiance's grandpa is very ill and we want him to be able to see a grandchild get married. The wedding date is November 1 and will be at the same park my fiance and I were at before he asked me out, and where he asked me to marry him. This is beyond stressful since we are getting all of our plans done in less than a month.
We have these things completes:
ceremony venue
reception venue
wedding rings
Photographer
We need to do these things still:
Dress for me, vest and tie for him
Justice of the Peace
Marriage certificate
Write invitations
Make ceremony decorations
Make caramel apples for favors

Believe it or not but the entire wedding will be under $1000! It helps only have 25-30 of local family and best friends there. But isn't that all who matters?

I'll give you a breakdown of our costs. I never believed I would have a wedding under $5000 until I found my own money saving tips from lovely co-workers and research.

  1. Hi, I saw your message on the Knot.com about planning a wedding so quickly.

    I'm looking to get into the events planning business here (I recently moved to Brevard County), but have had some experience with weddings in Pittsburgh.

    Would you be interested in a day-of coordinator? I'd offer my services totally free in exchange for a good referral/review by you if you like my work. I could help with any last minute details. For example, are you having flowers? Are you having a wedding cake? I could set up your ceremony decorations for you, etc.

    If you are interested, let me know. You could email me back at: knottiekwynn@gmail.com

    Hope to hear from you soon!
