Milestone

This week, I hit an important wedding planning milestone: I got so frustrated with everything that I told James I wanted to just elope. We could hop a plane to Vegas, get married and be back before Monday and not have to worry about all this wedding stuff any more.

It’s a little discouraging to think that we’ve got over a year until the wedding and I’ve already had this impulse.

James talked me down, telling me I’d regret it. And I know it’s not what he wants.

The pressure to have a fairy tale wedding, plus to keep all family members, friends and other assorted hangers on happy and smiling, is just too much sometimes.

Maybe instead of Vegas, we could just get on a boat and be married by a captain.

I just need a dress…then I could do it…maybe…

    I too am getting married next year, on May 3rd, and I totally know what you’re talking about.

    To take the pressure off of us, myself and my partner decided to hire a Wedding Planner, and as much as it might seem extravagant, I swear to you it’s the best thing you’ll ever do, especially if you’re under pressure to have the stereotypical “fairytale” wedding.

    All we have to worry about now are the invitations, the table centerpieces and the cake topper. EVERYTHING else is being taken care of by the Wedding Planner.

    I wish you the very best of luck in planning your wedding, from one future bride, to another.
