Lies Of The Wedding World

    Believe it or not, lies abound in the wedding world. People seem to prefer the view that it's a glittery, perfect world, full of glitz and glamor. At times, nothing could be further from the truth. Let's look at some of the top lies of the wedding world.

1. Jobs are easy. Some jobs are understandably hard. Wedding planning, making the dress. However others (making treats or bouquets) may be more misunderstood. It seems simple enough. Some mixing here, some dipping there, some coating all around, and maybe a dash of cooking. It's hard. It's not glamorous. It's hot, it's labor intensive. I have a need to get it right, and if I don't, it's back to the drawing board.

2. It's your day. There's a reason those screaming, over perfecting brides are known worldwide as Bridezillas. No one likes working with them. It's fine if you want the special day to be special, but it's not all about you. The fact that your guests (and especially your significant other) are happy is just as important

3. Everything has to be just right. I'd like to believe this just as much as you, but nothing's perfect. Thing will go unexpectedly. Take a deep breath, view it with new eyes, and embrace it. Perfection is overrated, and the unique, zany moments are what people will remember. Don't stress, it will work out.

Finally, the last, and one of the biggest lies:

4. You need to spend tons of money on your wedding for it to be good. A wedding on a budget is doable. You don't need the fanciest silverware and china. That DJ who offers more song choices than the last when you don't really need those options anyway isn't crucial. The most important thing to remember is that your wedding matches your vision. Collaborate with your spouse and discuss your options. It may be better than anything you could have dreamed of.
