Actually I supprised the crap out of her when I said if I could get 20K for everything I'd sell it. Would like to pay off the bills to start fresh. We're also looking at buying a house. We need a 5 bedroom house for us and her family.

Jesus the stress is starting to make it not even worth it. I could just run down to the strip and we could get married for $40. Why the hell do I need to spend all this money and stress over all the details! I dont give a grap about a big wedding, or even a Batchler party. I just want to get married.

Sorry had to rant. Ever since the planning started theres been alot of tention between us. And we both know its the stress doing it.

Edit: P.S. Thank you for all the congrats.

Congrats Mike. Its a once in a lifetime event that im sure your fiance has dreamed about since she was a little girl.

But me, I 'm on your side. I would take all the money for the wedding and use it for a downpayment on the house.

How big of a wedding are you guys planning?

Weddings can be really stressful if you decide to care about family attending and focus alot on the tiny details. My friend got married and she basically dropped out of school for a year because all the preparations were eating her time up. She had a fairly small wedding (<100 guests) and it was still a pain. I think she spent several thousand just for food at the reception for relatives she doesn't even know.. Plus some churchs have rigorous testing to make sure you are compatibile before they will marry you.
It's a crazy mess but I'm sure you will make it through.

Hopefully you can enlist the help of your parents, friends, and close relatives to delegate tasks (like finding a reception hall, dj or musicians, etc).

So far, we're getting married at the park ($25), have the preacher reserved ($175) and the reception is going to be at the house. The big issue is time. June is pretty close.
