Wedding Budget Blunders

1. Your groomsmen gifts were personal handmade keepsake cards tailored to each of your friends.

• It's the thought that counts, right? And the two dollars in material costs.

• As 'live entertainment' goes, Flo wasn't half bad. She out drank half your friends, and you lost five bucks in a bet. Who knew a 100 pound dame could inhale an entire cigarette in one mind-blowing draw?

• It seemed like a good idea around this time last year...

• The band received its loudest ovation when Luigi fell off the stage and onto his face in one drunken careening spectacle.

• Your tuxedo has more crimps and ruffles than a tutu dress, and you're sporting so much polyester you begin to feel like an extra on "That 70s Show".

• Your Honeymoon suite at Motel 6 comes complete with heart-shaped bathtub and a free continental breakfast. You wake up late the next morning, so you have to fight off a ten year old for the last warm waffle and a creme-filled do-nut.

• How much cash for all the toasters?
