    if you can save around £300, a month you will be able to achieve it. I would leave the two months free incase your budget goes over or that one or two months you have an unexpected bill ( ie. new brakes for the car - like the problem we had this month)
    if after you work out that you can save £300, or about that then i would say yeah you should be fine.

    I think you've made the right decision, by postponing. There's no point getting yourself into debt or financial hardship, especially when planning a wedding can be very stressful.
