Budget 7/07 - 7/20

Since I need this paycheck to last me until the second day of my honeymoon I figured it was wise to write up a budget so I don't forget anything in the midst of wedding planning.

BTW I should have realized what I was going to get when I googled "two brides" but this image refers to a semi-financial quandry I am in. :-)

My friend is also getting married and her shower and bachellorette party are this weekend. I have already RSVPd yes to both events, but due to a death in a third friend's family I no longer have a way to get to them - five hours away. So...I'm trying to figure out what to do...and how much it will cost. So here's my worst case scenario budget:


Starting Balance = $1337

Sallie Mae - 406
Defaulted Student Loan - 260
Credit Card - 100
Sprint - 74
Health - 45
Shower gift - 60
Transportation and party misc. - 180
Wedding week & misc. - 212


Okay, so that's not too awful. Of course it doesn't take into account the vast amount of money we will spend during the week of the wedding but that is coming out of the separate wedding budget I've worked so hard on for the past year. Time to enjoy it!

Ha, 2 brides...why were you googling that anyway? Just for the picture? That is too funny.
