So DP and I have finally set a date to get married, which is bloody brilliant, I'm over the moon.
We are flat broke though, running up debts, and only have £10 at the end of the month (if we are particularly careful). We've got all the benefits we can, I'm working two jobs as well as being a SAHM to save on childcare costs, we don't have any luxuries, selling everything we can get away with living without, etc. There is nothing more we can do to help our finances save DP getting a better paid job (which he is doing every spare minute of the day). This has come from a couple of people who would know (Cab, accountant friend, etc).
As a result, we are just going to get married in a registry office in the cheapest ceremony we can have. After that we may go out for dinner if we can stretch to it, with any guests paying for themselves.
It'll be lovely and I'm looking forward to being DP's wife, getting all the legal protection for our daughter, etc.
But AIBU for feeling a little sad for the wedding I've wanted since a little girl? Especially since there is absolutely nothing we can do about it?
