I have to laugh.... I didn't put a quarter as much time into my own wedding as I have my best friends. Maybe because I was young and it just wasn't my "dream" growing up to be the princess bride when I got older...... have 20 kids and become Betty Homemaker.
All of the details is making me crazy, does every little rhinestone, napkin and chair cover REALLY matter so much? It is only a 5 hour event for crying out loud.
Yes, I get it, the day needs to be perfect for the Bride..... but why don't you just give me the 10 thousand plus dollars that this wedding is costing and I will give the Bride a perfect WEEK....and still have enough left over to buy myself a few pairs of shoes. :-)
I love her, and I want so much for her..... I hold the title of the Matron of honor in true delight, I will shower her at her Bridal shower and I am taking her far far away for her Bachelorette Party.... I will stand beside her on her special day....shed a few tears as her father gives her away.... dance all night with her til we both drop....it really will be a night to remember..... and I am so happy her dream day is becoming a reality.....
But I have to say........ after April 5th.... I do not think I can deal with another THOUGHT of a wedding. Its just so OVER RATED...... what happened to a nice and simple gathering on the beach or at the park..... exchange vows before God and BOOM.... you share his name.
Ta' Daaaaaaa!!!

I just got married a year ago and I remember my now husband saying, "why should it take months to plan for a couple of hours?"
I had never thought of it that way; he really put it into perspective.
We stressed ourselves out about the silliest things for my wedding, and when it comes down to it, I was in such a daze that day, I didn't hardly notice the things we had all thought so much about at all.
I am really not a HUM BUG when it comes to weddings, its just a bit over whelming.... lol....
