Wow I’ve just begun and this wedding stuff is stressing me out. I had no idea how much weddings cost especially one for 200 people, which is what it’s looking like ours is going to be. Of course my list is HUGE cause my family is so big, so Jonas invited a bunch of his friends locally (he knows EVERYONE in the town of New Smyrna). When I talk to him about taking some of his friends off the list he’s like BUT YOUR LIST IS TWICE THE SIZE OF MINE! Which he’s right... but mine is mostly family…. I know he doesn’t think that most his fam will come so that’s why he wants to invite so many friends. Since none of our Family lives in Daytona we’re trying to have the wedding and reception at a resort or an area close by a hotel that all of our family can stay at which is proving to be super expensive… It’s just so stressful. We had such a great weekend… we went out in his friends boat and then just hung out at the house on Sunday… but Sunday night as soon as we started talking wedding stuff it turned into this tense conversation about cutting cost and saving money and cutting corners… etc…. It really makes me wish I was one of the girls on Platinum Weddings where money isn’t an issue. Must be nice….
