Our Wedding...

All of my wonderful friends have asked about my wedding date...which is sweet, but I still haven't planned a thing! I am very excited about marrying my sweet man, but between trying to get 100% out of debt (hope to hit that goal in 2 more months) and worrying about the economy...I have stalled on any planning. The most important thing to me is I will be Ed's wife. It is just hard for me to turn on the news and hear of so many people being unemployed, families losing homes, etc... I cannot stay focused on the money that would be spent on a wedding. Or ask friends and family to spend money ...at this time when the economy is so bad. I swear ..."ELOPING" ...sounds more and more like a good idea. Then we could use the money that would have went on a wedding for a down payment on a house and have a party to celebrate both our marriage and our home. Is that bad??
