I need Jesus to lead me in all my relationships because I am broken and because the people I am in relationship with are broken too.
That means our relationships are broken, yes, but those broken relationships are opportunities for Christ to be glorified.
In this post I will break down how we were able to pay for our rehearsal dinner, wedding, and honeymoon for less than $10,000.
At the end of the day, however much money was spent, however many guests attended, however many slices of cake eaten, we were husband and wife.
And because of that, it was the very best day.
As of this coming weekend, Matthew Darling and I have been husband and wife for 6 months!
It's been great and it's been hard.

So. Many. Decisions.
That's why I thought it may be helpful to share our experience for any soon-to-be-married couples out there who are feeling overwhelmed by the process.

Now I am able share it, so I can help YOU have the best day too!
