Quotes to ponder:

"You need to be transparent and honest about what you can afford to contribute. If you are getting financial help from parents or other family members, ask them for a specific number that they are comfortable providing."

"Think of each dollar in terms of what it will mean to you in the future. For example, if you are thirty years old, each dollar you save could potentially be worth 10 dollars by the time you retire."

"Remember, it’s about the marriage, not the wedding."
