Wedding Funding Options: Loans & Grants for Your Big Day

Question
I am getting married in 5 months exactly. the wedding date setting set for approximatley November 4th of this year, but i am extremely paniced and troubled. i thought i would have enough money, but seems like i wont. I will be in need of around $15,000.00. is there a grant, or loan or anything i could apply for to assist in paying for my wedding? i need some help!

Answer
Dear JD,

I understand you want to make it the perfect day, but putting yourself $15,000 in debt IN ONE DAY is more than any spouse should place on each other. I do not know of any loan, grant or otherwise (with the exception of a morning television that wants to "follow the bride and groom through their wedding day")that would loan money for a wedding. Consider making a budget of the ultimate wedding and then little by little see where you can save some money. Decide what is absolutely the most important part of the wedding and start from there. I'm sure theknot.com has some sort of wedding planning advice when it comes to a budget. Check these links out- http://www.theknot.com/ch_article.html?Object=AI980914211805&keywordID=156&keywo...
