Don't Do It!

If you have just gotten engaged or you are thinking about getting married do not do the following:
1) Don't bother with the whole wedding thing..go to a judge or do a destination wedding
2) If you really want to walk down the aisle..don't have anyone in the wedding. Make it about the two of you. This means: the groom stands with the priest or judge or rabi..and the bride walks down the aisle. Nobody comes before or after you.
3) Don't have too many hands in the pot..the more people who decide to help you pay for the wedding the more ideas/changes/suggestions (that aren't really suggestions..they are demands) that you are going to have.

I would never, ever suggest the full blown wedding..it costs way too much money and it's easily the most frustrating time you'll ever have trying to prepare for approximately 5 hours of your life.

Apologies to all my blog readers

I have a very GOOD excuse for not writing..really! I'm a panicked bride-to-be. I have to admit that I never really understood the panicked bride-to-be syndrome..now I do. I think that I'm defining it actually. You know..the breathing into a bag, head spinning, questioning everything you pack for the honeymoon, annoyed at every vendor, wondering if you are going to trip when walking down the aisle, will I look fat in my wedding dress?..this is what I'm thinking about on a daily basis. Top that off with a stressful new job. Everyone says "Don't worry..you'll be fine...blah blah.." Maybe that's true, but it doesn't feel like it. I'm looking forward to the actual day, but getting there is definitely interesting.
