Default To clutch or not to clutch

Getting married...fiance found a really nice place to hold the wedding and have a nice small ceremony.

Joe@Zspeed has hooked me up with a great deal on a full clutch replacement and I have thrown in a bunch of upgrades as well that I want to do at the same time.

Wedding cost - 2200
Clutch/upgrades - 2400

Oh what ever shall I do....

Go for the wedding. You'll never ever work your way off her **** list if you blow more than the cost of the wedding on car parts right now. Or go fry your clutch. It's easier to justify fixing something than upgrading something.

Tell her you are a firm believer in tradition, and traditionally the bride's family covers the wedding cost. Go for the car upgrades.

I agree with both comments above, and thank The Lord that you're getting away with a $2400 wedding!!!

Man I was thinking the same thing. OP should be lucky that his wedding is only the price of a clutch job. I thought I did good at 6x that amount. We shouldn't have to say this but definitely pay for the wedding.

We so need a sarcasm emote haha.

Of course i'm going to do the wedding. I really like giving her crap about it though. This morning I left her a note when i came to work saying we needed to push the wedding back two months because I had ordered my clutch instead. Oh the phone call that got me at work!
