Stressed About Wedding Planning?

Hey! You just got engaged and you are ECSTATIC!  Showing off your new rock... everyone's gushing about how cute you and your fiance are.... you are in shock and everything is just a whirl around you! 

And then the questions come..... 



When are you getting married?!  Where will you have it?  Let's go dress shopping!  Find a caterer!  Find a DJ!  Find a photographer!   Wait.... we don't even have a song!   

Take a breath.   

Just find a simple wedding planning checklist.... like this one!    It'll help you keep everything on track and help you remember the things you're bound to forget until last minute.  

Here are some more examples..... They are all organized differently so find one that fits you the best.

Also, have your maid of honor really help you stay on track!  At least find someone who is responsible, trustworthy, and fun to be around.  If you have a married friend, ask them for advice and suggestions of who they hired and what they wish they would've done or would've NOT done on their wedding day.   

And most of all..... spend time with your man!  Remind each other that this engagement isn't ALL about the wedding, but about preparing for marriage.   Selflessly serve each other, patiently listen to each other, find fun things to do together, and encourage each other.   

Cheers!
