Often times, in the midst of all the chaos, the lovely bride becomes… not so lovely. Although it can be a hassle to choose anything and everything when it comes to weddings, it is definitely common for a bride to become stressed and overworked when her fiancé isn’t really caring about something like the color of napkins on the table. Here are some tips and tricks on how to take a breather and actually enjoy your wedding because after all, it is one of the most important days of your life.
First things first, it is a big event which means that things will not come easy. Trust me, there will be many obstacles coming your way. However, since you happened to stumble across this blog post this means that you will know it is not the end of the world if something does not go your way.
1.MINUSCULE DETAILS DO NOT MATTER! Only you are going to notice the small details
of this wedding. Do not spend a lot of time stressing about what way the flowers are
supposed to be arranged or what kind of design will be on the wedding invitations
because at the end of the day no one will pay attention to those details except for you!
So, stick with this motto: Gather, Celebrate, and Inspire. Focus on making it a good time
for everyone and most importantly you and your soon to be husband.
2.BE OPEN MINDED! Accept what others have to say because they are only trying to
help you. It is important to seek other people’s opinions because they might have other
ideas that could truly make things easier for you. Also, be open to the fact that you may
not get exactly what you wanted and that it will work out in the end even if you think your
whole world is crashing down.
3.MULTICULTURAL MARRIAGES! In this situation, you don’t know how to please your
soon-to-be in laws because of the cultural difference. For example, in an American and
Indian Wedding, they will often have two ceremonies. One for the groom’s side and one
for the bride’s. Although it can be expensive, do not fear. Talk to your in laws and see
what you both can do to come to a compromise.
4.PICTURE PERFECT! Often times, finding a venue, photographer, florist, etc., can be
quite the struggle. However, talk to people you know and can trust to find companies
that are right for your desires. Choosing a brand-new set of options can be risky because
you will not be familiar with their style of their work. Thus, negatively impacting the
outcome of your wedding. Fortunately, when booking with Verona Villa, planning services
are included to limit the stress and make your planning process that much easier!
5.HAVE FUN! This is the most important part of it all. YOU are getting married. This is your
day to shine. Take a step back to take a moment to realize that you are about to spend
the rest of your life with your best friend. Enjoy it while you can because stressing about
this event will take all the excitement away. This is the moment you will remember for the
rest of your life... so make it a good one.
