So my birthday is in two months and I already have my dress and crown the only thing I still need to get is the function hall in which the party will be held ,the dj who will provide music,the food, the church,my shoes,the little party favors which people will take home as sortve a memory of the party, the hairsalon, as you can see I stilll have a looooong way to go and on top of this I'm planning on having the 7 girls and the 7 boys traditional waltz dance .
My problem is I only have two months to get all of this bookd and plannd out well and I'm slaking A LOT I do have a job but every pay check I receive I can't save it up I always end up spending it on something stupid and pointless and money is the biggest issue right now for me I'm trying really hard to save up but its too hard.
How can I get all of this to work before two months ? How can I learn to save my pay checks?

Well you need to get to work on the plans today. First write down everything you want in detail right now, turn off the computer and go do it, (:P) and then start looking around for the things and plan what you need to pay for and make a budget that is reasonable. Then look at how much you make in a month and how much you spend in a regular month (lunchs, at the mall, other expenses) and cut everything you can out. Limit yourself to a five$ a week budget (or less if possible) and find ways to cut back. If your frieds say they want to go shopping, tell them you have to go home and plan your party. Bring bag lunchs!!
Before you buy anything for your party write it down and make sure you can pay for it and still have room for other things later.
I have a little question, why do you need a church and a dj and a hall for 14 people? Maybe you should look at cutting the guest list, or if you really need the church and the hall andthe DJ, invite MORE.
Also, search the internet for hair styles and find one that you can do yourself that will look awesome (that cuts out the hair salon). Then, for party favours, what you can do, is buy decorations for the tables (say where you're putting the food and stuff) and let the guests that them home. If you go to google, and search like center peices you can probably find ones that are super cute. My cousin made chocolate candy flowers, they looked adorable and everyone took them home to eat later. It was awesome. Something like that would work well.
Well I hope I answered your question, let me know if there are any other things i can help you with, just leave a message in my inbox. Good luck, and happy birthday!
Love ya,
