Wedding Budget Blues

My obsession with saving money has possibly gotten out of control.

I have been reading a lot of wedding blogs lately and it is insane what you can do for a wedding with a big budget. It is all well and good if you have the money but if you don’t it just hurts to read. I want damn white peacocks at my wedding too! Just because you can and I didn’t know that. But I almost freaked when I read this. Darci, you can buy jars that look exactly like your pretty Pottery Barn ones at Michaels for half the price. Plus you can use the 40% off coupons. I wanted to cry for the thirty dollars extra she had to spend. I actually had to restrain myself from commenting … because I didn’t want to make her feel bad.  To calm myself, I repeated “she used a gift-card” over and over in my head, excusing that kind of blatant waste of money.

I think I have a sickness.
