1st step to planning your wedding: Create Your Wedding Budget! You know, I spent the entire weekend fretting and worrying about our wedding finances for the 2nd half of this year... As we complete paying our deposits for the banquet and photoshoot (by Sep I hope), it's time I start to worry about other items, like paying for photographer, videography and many other miscellaneous. That was when I decide to search for wedding budget planners online. Found this link particularly useful: http://www.kissmegoodnight.com/wedding-costs/wedding_budget_breakdown_of_costs.shtml When I started reading their articles, I realized how naive I can be! By right, creating the wedding budget should be the primary issue the moment you decide to get married! Like what they say, the budget is essential because YOU can never be sure what you can afford for each aspect of the wedding if you don't give yourself the limit to the overall spending cost. Here's a sample of the Pie Chart: 
Sometimes I really hope to have a memorable and unforgettable wedding experience, yet it comes with a high price *shrug*. After listing down the categories (what needs to be done), I realized there are a couple of items which I might need to forsake. For example, diamond accessories to match my gown, room decoration for solemnisation ceremony, Europe honeymoon trip and so on! (Probably really need to try my luck on 4D and lottery) To be on a realistic note, my mum always tells me the same story: Marriage is for life. Wedding reception is temporal and happens only on 1 day. It is important to note that the wedding ceremony is meant as a celebration for the newly-wedded, not a platform for flaunting or boasting how grand or now much $$ u have plounged into the planning. With this faith, I'm positive that with whatever limited budget WeiSiang and I might possess, we will be able to make 18 May 2008 a beautiful, unforgettable fairy tale wedding.
