So you’re engaged?  To be married next year?  Oh what fun, to plan until you’re spent – financially, emotionally, and socially.   Don’t get me wrong, the big day will be BEAUTIFUL, but your work is cut out for you.  No matter how well you plan, or how easy you think it will be.  Elope now OR learn how to meditate, because you are going to need a way to relax in between the months of planning and stress.

I thought I had it easy.  Get married barefoot on a beach.  No wedding party.  Invited close friends and family only.  

1.  Saved money on the dress – bought mine on clearance for $99.

2.  Saved money on the tux – he’s wearing linen pants and a white shirt.

3.  No Bridesmaids, so no dress for my girlfriends to bicker over, critique, or obsess!

4.  “Wear what you want,” I said.  Dressy-casual, it’s the best!

5.  Four women offered to throw me showers or parties.  I thought I was in heaven. 

Then there’s that pesky thing called “the details.”  What’s that they say? The Devil is in the details!  How true!
