Family financial expert Crystal Paine is the creator of the amazing website MoneySavingMom.com. SAVING MONEY WHEN PLANNING A WEDDINGThe biggest thing is you need a budget. How much money can you realistically devote to paying for this wedding? Really think about your priorities when it comes to that budget.  CREATE A BUDGETCreate a budget by category and then decide what categories you want to prioritize and put a little bit more money in. And in which areas could you live with spending a little less? For example, perhaps you decide that spending a lot of money on professional photography isn't all that important to you, but you would really like to have nice flowers. Decide ahead of time how to prioritize your resources. And we highly recommend that you do not go into debt!  It's not worth it. You can simplify your wedding and still have a great marriage. We promise! WHEN TO WED?According to knot.com, about 43% of weddings now take place between September and November. So how does that affect the cost of a wedding?Just remember the laws of supply and demand. If you're holding your wedding at a really popular time of the year, your costs may increase. Venues, photographers, cake decorators, etc. … all may charge more because demand is higher at that time of year. So if possible, consider holding your wedding outside of those peak months. Perhaps you could consider a December through February wedding date. If you go in the offseason, it's also going to be easier to find service providers as they're less likely to be booked up. OTHER MONEY-SAVING TIPSCrystal shares that she wore her mom's wedding gown during her wedding. But there are a lot of places online that offer great deals. For instance, David's Bridal offers sales a few times a year with significant discounts. Crystal says she's seen wedding dresses for as little as $99. So planning ahead can really save you a lot of money there. Also, ask around to see if there's anyone you know who can actually decorate cakes. There may be someone in your circle of friends, or a friend of a friend, who could help you save a lot of money on your cake. And if you're willing to hold your wedding at your church, rather than an expensive outside venue, you may be able to save a bundle there as well. Unless you're planning a super simple wedding, one investment that may be well worth your while is a wedding planner. Crystal shares that hiring a planner was the best investment she made for her wedding. A good planner can take a ton of stress off your plate. But they can also negotiate prices, help you stay within your budget, and may even save you money in the end. On today's program, Rob also answers listener questions: What are the tax implications of giving an adult child a large cash gift? Does it make sense to enter into a rent-to-own agreement for a home if your credit isn't great?  Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000. Faith & Finance is also available on the Moody Radio Network as well as American Family Radio. Visit our website at FaithFi.comwhere you can join the FaithFi Community, and give as we expand our outreach.

Like many of the leading issues that were top of mind until the pandemic sucked all the oxygen out of the room, in-person event risk management is once again being discussed as the industry ramps up to pre-pandemic levels and attendees are traveling for meetings. But while DEI and sustainability have regained their status as key industry concerns as the pandemic wanes, many believe now is the time to elevate risk management back to its pre-pandemic prominence. Meetings Today's Tyler Davidson sat down with Gary LaBranche, CEO of Risk and Insurance Management Society (RIMS) at ASAE's 2023 Annual Meeting & Exposition, to push the reset button on this critical topic. Included in the conversation are tips on how you can ensure the safety of your attendees, an active-shooter situation that impacted RIMS's RISKWORLD event in Atlanta in May, as well as how RIMS is teaming with ASIS and ASAE to develop a risk management toolkit that will help planners keep their events safe.

On July 20, Capitol Forum Executive Editor Teddy Downey spoke with Diana Moss, President of the American Antitrust Institute (AAI), about what a LiveNation-Ticketmaster monopoly breakup could look like. The AAI recently published a deep dive on vertical integration of Live Nation and Ticketmaster as well as proposed remedies. On the podcast, Diana describes the legal climate around vertical mergers in 2010 when the two companies first merged: “We had this whole gestalt around vertical mergers being viewed as pro-competitive, getting a lot of deference in enforcement cases, no case law. And that merger, Live Nation/Ticketmaster, was especially egregious because Ticketmaster had about 80 percent share in primary ticketing.” To put that statistic in perspective, Diana sites the new, proposed merger guidelines, which describe 50 percent share as a presumption of anti-competitive outcomes. The current result, she points out, is a lack of choice for everyone involved: “Venues have no choice, or very little choice, but to go to Ticketmaster. Artists have very little choice but to go to Ticketmaster for ticketing. Even Taylor Swift had to do this. She was promoted by AEG, which is a competing concert promoter, but AEG didn't have the ticketing services. So Ticketmaster was the only option.” Listen to the full podcast to hear about: The complications of secondary markets Retaliation fears from artists and independent venues Historical breakup precedents Potential remedies, including the drawbacks to conduct remedies

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: An organized Leftwing political campaign in Lubbock, including by Moms Against Gregg Abbott PAC, successfully bullied Sandy Henry at the Science Spectrum to cancel the facility rental for an event at which parents and citizens were to be taught how to find pornographic, sexually explicit, and sexually inappropriate books in school and public libraries. Homewood Suites by Hilton in Lubbock also appears to have done the same.Is it the position of Homewood Suites or the Science Spectrum that it is good policy to have in our libraries pornographic, sexually explicit, and sexually inappropriate books for children? Or, is it simply that Sandy Henry of the Science Sprectrum and the Homewood Suites stand with the Left on the idea that only Leftist expression is to be protected?And don't buy the baloney from Henry about cancelling the event because it is “controversial.” First, science itself is controversial and second, the facility has rented its meeting space for many things that the Left would consider controversial including churches, partisan political debates, and more.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.More lawsuits filed against Texas: Group Sues Texas Governor and Others Over the State's TikTok Ban on Official Devices Parents, doctors sue Texas to block transgender minor medical procedure ban Here's another big nothing from the liberal press when deconstructed: Attorney General Ken Paxton met with GOP activist he was prosecuting. Oh boy, a politician meets with a political activist for a few minutes two weeks before a primary election – that's certainly never happened before! The story is classic example of misdirection to the point of being absurd.And, other news of Texas.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.
