Planning Your Wedding Together

For all you couples planning your wedding this year, you need to make sure the experience is one that you both enjoy. Try to make it fun, not stressful. It’s never fun to be stressed out, so, make a promise to each other to listen and if one of you is starting to get overwhelmed, the other needs to step in and help.

 Now Guys, which I don’t know how many of you actually read this stuff, but you need to pay attention. This is “HER” day, we all know this, but, don’t expect her to plan her day for herself. You need to be right there in the mix helping her pick out everything but the dress. I know we would rather drink a beer and just say, “Yes honey that looks great.” or ” I don’t care as long as your happy” THESE AREN’T GOOD ANSWERS!. Put down your beer, it will still be there, get up and get your hands dirty!! You both need to be happy, and this is when your lovely lady is going to need you most, even if she has had this day planned since she was 4 playing with Barbie and Ken , she really does need your help.

Ok now that I just called guys out, I have to say a few things to you Ladies. Now don’t get mad at me and ban my blog, take some advice from a guy and see how it works. Ok deep breath, here we go. Ladies, IT IS YOUR DAY, But remember you do have a man to. He might have always thought about something cool to have at his wedding. Yes we think about that stuff to, just not in great detail like you guys do, so ask him his ideas and opinions. Ok next step, if you do ask our opinion for something in the wedding like invitations, place settings, ect….Ask to have our complete focus and for us to look you in the eyes. If you don’t like our opinion don’t blow up and go bridezilla, maybe we see what your talking about, but in a different light. Remember you both want to get married so you both care, talk things over and come up with a solution you both love. This is what married life will be all about, so this is a great step toward your wonderful future together.

 Now lets learn how to deal with stress. I know what your thinking, he is a guy what does he know about wedding stress. Just listen and maybe I can help. Plan early and don’t wait!! You cant wait until the last minute. You will explode and we have all seen bridezilla one to many times. So, what you need to do is both sit down together ( guys are you still reading? Ladies if he isn’t reading this with you get his butt over there ) no distractions, pick a date then move forward. Do little tasks along the way to help alleviate the work load. Last and most important, IT’S YOUR WEDDING. NOT ANYONE ELSE’S. ONLY WORRY ABOUT YOU AND YOUR MAN. YOU WONT BE HAPPY TRYING TO PLEASE OTHER PEOPLE AT YOUR OWN WEDDING.

Ok, I think I have rambled enough today. The motto of today’s post is happiness and to make sure we have fun planning our wedding. Tomorrow I’m going to talk about a very controversial, topic Gay Marriage. Thanks so much for tuning in!
