These are all guesstimates, hence the reason why it's a floating figure, but as we look more into it in the next few months we'll see where it takes us. Neither one of us wants a big expensive wedding, but at the same time we want to do something and having it in my mother's backyard is unrealistic for the number of people we'd like to invite (I have a lot of people in my side of the family alone, and I'm close to a good number of them).
So, yeah, folding beds... pretty spiffy...
