The great changes I'm noticing about couples getting married this year are worth sharing. If you are getting married, these are the top takeaway tips as you plan:
1. Don't get swayed by external pressure and this applies to suppliers and the advice of friends and family. Your vision, budget and style is personal. For some reason a wedding invites unwanted opinions but if it was your birthday it would be a different story. You can just say, hey thanks but I'm excited to see my vision become a reality and for you to relax and enjoy it!
2. Don't do things because it's "what you should do". Include it if it's a vibe, delete it if it feels untrue.
3. Things that don't pan out are often total blessings. If you miss out on a venue you want, or the date you want, it might mean you get a venue that is more suitable in an unseen way or date that surprises you with cracking weather. Try not to force things into being one way.
4. Vows- you can opt to say your personal vows in private if you're not a fan of public speaking. Only a legal sentence must be said before your witnesses/guests.
