Phineas looked rather amazed at Samantha's statement. "Sacre bleu! $50,000! Vous are rolling in zee greenbacks, are you not?" He cleared his throat, attempting to regain composure. "In zee past, I've helped create fantastic weddings on zee budgets of shoestrings. Who knows what's possible with a budget like this?" "Any ideas on what vou wanted to send zis money on?"

"Well you are the planner. Isn't that up to you? I tell you what I want and it happens? Like the cake, dress, venue and food?"

"Zere we go!", Phineas said with a finger in the air. "Cake! Dress! Venue! Food! Zat's what I need to know! What do vou see these as? And more importantly, what do vou NOT want to see? Zese details will make the planning a lot smoother, vou see. Your imagination becomes my mission."

"I'm not sure about the cake, I need to taste various ones to find one I like. I have no clue about the food. As long as its delicious I don't really mind." Samantha leaned back into the chair and closed her eyes. She wanted to do right by both of them, and that included Paul, "Pail loves steak so it has to be on there. Oh and his sister is a vegetarian so something vegan as well."

Phineas put a hand to his chin. "I see. Oui, that can be arranged. Perhaps I can find a catering company who can send the foods we need. If not, zen some grocery shopping would be zee next best thing." "I will be writing a list of what we need. It will be on my computer, so we can change it at any time." "On zee other hand, I would like to know zee specific date you're getting married. Now would be a good time to hand out invitations. Invite all zat you want months in advance, so zey can't make any plans over your wedding. I can get you zee cards whenever you're ready."

Samantha blushed, "April 5th. That's the date. Its special to us. That is the day that we met for the very first day." "I need to go over the guest list with Paul, make sure we invite everyone we want. But its going to be at least 300 people."

Phineas lowered his glasses, his eyes bugged at that last statement. "300 people? Is zat so? Do vou really know zat many?" Stacy raised an eyebrow. "Don't you think that's a little unrealistic? Can you seriously invite that many?" Somehow, she knew the answer was 'yes' before Samantha even said anything.

"Yes that many. If we include all of the family, from both sides, close friends, and not to mention we are giving them all a Plus One invite. And include kids into it? Its going to be that many. If not more." Samantha said without missing a beat. "I want live music too. Make sure its appropriate even for kids."

"Well...", said Phineas as he adjusted his glasses, "Music. Oui. How do vou feel about a small orchestra playing at zee wedding? High-browed, cultured music! Does zat seem suiting of a princess? Zere's nothing inappropriate about zee orchestra!"

Samantha's eyes went wide, "An orchestra? That sounds a tad excessive." she turned to Stacy, "What do you think?" she asked her, knowing she will get an honest answer

Stacy shrugged at the orchestra proposal. "You've got a huge budget, right? If an orchestra's too much, what were you gonna spend all that money on?"

"I was thinking that the venue and food were going to cost a lot. Since I want to get married in a castle, if there is one. Plus we have a lot o guests, the renting of the plates and stuff are going to be huge too, right?" Samantha turned her attention back to the planner

Phineas began to contemplate. "Hmm...So I see. I love zee specifics. Vou cannot plan a wedding without zem." "So let's see... Zere's not enough money for an orchestra, so I'll need to find some high-class music at a smaller price. Most of zat money, zat's going to zee caterers." "Hold on for a moment, mademoiselle. Did vou just say vou wanted to have zee wedding at a castle? Zat may be a little hard to perform, given zee geography. Zere's not zat many castles in zee United States if I remember. But I can look."

"If you can't find a castle, that's okay. I'll settle for an historic church. The kind with stone walls." Samantha smiled and linked her fingers together. This was the first step in many to come

"Oui!", said Phineas, "I can look into zat! I'll find vou zee best stone building in zee area! With zis budget, we should be able to afford a day there!" "Well...", he said with a pause,"I think zat concludes our first meeting, unless you have anything else to mention."
