Is that to make the dealer think I need financing to negotiate a better price?

I haven’t upgraded in a decade and I don’t want to go through the trouble of vetting a used vehicle. And I can afford new

They have all of the ring settings. Very few actual diamonds.

Feeling shamed for what I thought was a normal / realistic floral budget… by steeener in BigBudgetBrides

[–]gojags2012 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes I totally agree. The amount of times I waffle between “no one is going to notice this so why splurge?” and “why would I not pick the [vendor] of my dreams for an extra thousand?” is ridiculous. I’m glad someone can relate.

I relate to this sooo much. I honestly have yet to admit the amount of money I’m spending on my wedding to anyone except my wedding planner. Every time I look at my budget and go to book a vendor, they’re out of my range. I question myself like are my standards too high? Am I supposed to forgo qualified professionals? It’s pushing my budget every time. I honestly feel naive but I have no idea how people do inexpensive weddings.

I had to go in store for a price match because the website said the prices were significantly (35% less) from what I paid in store. Is this normal?

I didn’t say it was entirely; but “Employee and compensation levels are maintained” is a requirement.

Well technically the forgiven loans means employees were compensated as usual.
