Avoiding Wedding Disasters - Part 3
Okay, now that you have read the first two installments on avoiding wedding disasters, here is the 3rd and last one.
Yes, your wedding is a celebration, but it’s also a symbol of putting childhood things behind and becoming an adult with all the responsibilities that come with that. Again, and I’ve said this several times already, remember, it is your wedding. You’re an adult, and you need to (nicely!) take control of your own life. Do what feels right to you. Get people’s suggestions, but make sure that they now, right from the getgo, that you have specific ideas and you’d like to make sure that they happen.
That being said, don’t get “stuck”. Listen to parents, relatives and friends. Give it some thought, even if it’s just for 15 minutes. Embrace their ideas, then dispose of them if, after awhile, you still don’t want to go that way. And if you respect who is saying, weigh it heavily, especially if it is suggested to you out of first hand experience.
This next suggestion is very important. After spending days upon days planning and working toward your wedding, take a weekend and get away, either alone or with a couple of friends. Honestly, this is not only good when planning a wedding, but under any stressful circumstances. You can’t imagine how your perspective changes when you get in a different environment.
Keep a sense of humor. Laugh when you want to scream. If you can do that, you will sail through this time of your life and enjoy every moment.
Don’t just plan the wedding, plan your life together! Remember, the wedding lasts one day. Hopefully, your marriage will last forever. Get together with your future spouse and promise not to discuss the wedding. Talk about your future together – if/when you’ll have kids, your careers, if you want to buy a home and when, where you’ll be living, etc. Actually, that’s more important than that swift 10 hour day.
Last but not least, get your unique wedding favors early! You don’t want to have that stress you out last minute! Hey, take a look at this one from my website.
This letter opener is one of my most popular wedding favors. People will have it and think of your special day for years to come.
I got married many years ago, married off two daughters, and I’ve been an integral part of over a hundred weddings. If you listen to my advice that I have given you over the last 3 blogs, you will be shocked at the stress that will be alleviated.
Much happiness coming your way,
Bella
