Um, plan something that IS realistically within your budget would be the logical thing to do.

The whole "waiting to get married to save wedding money up" thing is a bit much. I've seen people end up being engaged for like 3-4 years trying to save up for this "dream event" and I think that's silly.

I mean, what's the goal? Do you want to get married? Or is the goal to have the wedding of your dreams? I would think that the end goal here is marriage. You can have a very nice event within a realistic budget that doesn't require years of saving.

Besides, the fact that someone has to postpone a wedding or set a far off date in order to save $ for it probably means that it is not something that they can afford.

But that's just me and my crazy thinking. lol.

Personally speaking, I've always wanted to get married in Vegas (been vacationing there since I was 5) and that thankfully doesn't require a ridiculous budget.

I'd rather put that money into a home for us or use it to ensure that we enter marriage debt-free.
