Yay! For Weddings!
Let’s not underestimate the power of a ceremony and celebration such as a Wedding. Being lucky enough to attend and be actively involved in several weddings within the last 6 months I have fallen in love over and over again with the significance, grandeur, holiness, and aesthetic beauty of the occasion!
My brother, my best friend, and myself all 3 were married in the past 6 months. Now another very special friend is planning a wedding for October of 2008. My advice is be creative, this is YOUR wedding, and it is a carefully orchestrated event that promotes you and your significant other in both subjective, and objective ways. Use special details that illustrate your own interests, likes, and dreams. Be forward thinking with your wedding the love the two of you share and the dreams the two of you can build together for your future. Most importantly have fun! Don’t get overwhelmed or caught up in decisions just go with your instincts and the event will pull off better then you ever expected! Don’t be afraid to ask for help! If you are lucky enough to have friends and family close by don’t over look, or reject an out reached hand! Last but not least work on the wedding together. More then likely the female will have the proactive and leading role here, but ask for your mans opinions! He may not come up with ground breaking ideas, time-lines, order of events, or menus, but he can help eliminate likes and dislikes which will in time help make your “to do” list shorter and shorter. If you keep him actively involved he may surprise you and think of ways to simplify problems you as a female may magnify!
That’s it for now, I am always open for wedding discussions, brainstorming, planning, and coordinating! Best wishes to all of you newly engaged couples out there, and warm wishes to all of you newly weds!
