frustration pt 2

dear NYC... why do you have to be so expensive???

We spent a lot of time today responding to caterers regarding their proposals and trying to set up a couple more meetings... Looks like in the end, we'll have 5 proposals... Originally I was going for 3 but then read a suggestion of 5 and honestly, am glad that i did as 2 of the first 3 didnt really amount to anything that we could/would want to work with...

but its frustrating... even the 'best' proposal is exceeding our budget, which is already inflated by a few thousand dollars for the sake of being as realistic as possible... which puts us 5k over budget before we've done anything aside from booking the venue & caterer...

thats not really a good start, is it?
