today i have also learnt that few of my friends are planning their wedding/getting married! CONGRATULATIONS!
***
er.. and since you guys are asking about tips on planning a wedding then i share share a few... i am very humble one ok.. =P
#1 - i have learnt that guys are usually the less enthusiastic about the planning but that does not mean that they do not love you!
i think they are just lost about dress patterns, flower colours and table cloth matching with napkins.
the process of wedding kind of bored them - why should they be interested? during choosing of clothes, their coat is of similar design and limited colour - black, white or grey. while we lucky girls get to choose from a range of colours and shades and of different cloth material, design, etc.. during pre-wedding shoots they get less shots than the bride and most frequent thing they hear is "ok 老公好了，站一边" and 40% of the time they are standing at the side blowing bubbles... during make up, the bride takes 2-3hrs while the groom at the most 30mins? they are like most of the time being left aside. poor things.
i guess just have to find a way to coax your man to be more involved. i had a hard time coaxing princess also. he is always telling me that there is still time and i decide what i like can already. but when he saw me near-drowning in the amount of things to do and sudden realisation that time is running out, he became uber hardworking and even completed the wedding montage his own!
i have also learnt that he secretly likes it when i give him the attention i am being given. while i am being fuss over by the bridal shop assistants, he likes me to fuss over him. i think thats fair. =)
so do not be overly upset about it. rally in your sisters & BFFs, i think they would surely love to help.
#2 - wedding should reflect you+him. do what is really you+him. do not just because it is in fashion and then you have it. its your wedding, not D&D or NDP. please. people will know and you will end up with a rojak wedding.
if you guys need to practice kissing of hands and other acts of affection, i guess that is not you. just stick to what is comfortable and natural reaction.
its not a show either.
#3 - the wedding is just the beginning of a marriage. there are bound to be things that you guys dont agree about. my pastor's wife, auntie cheryl, said this to me before the marriage preparation class, "girls are bound to be more of perfectionist, but in the end its only the marriage that matters. compare the thing that you want to the marriage, if it not important.." *hands does the throw away action.
when i heard it, i was thinking in my head and horrified.. "what? throw away my dream of making hand made cards for my wedding since i am seven!" ok i am kidding. but really running in my head was "i cant throw that or that or that either away - i have been planning that since princess proposed!"
but at the end of the day, she is right. marriage is what is important. nobody is going to remember how my heels looked like.. or whether you printed the card in gold or used inserts... or what flowers i carried. do you remember?
not saying that you cannot have wants but if it is causing much unhappiness and it is not of an importance/custom/tradition maybe should consider not to have it.
thats all i have for now.. the hubs is chasing me to slp already.. happy planning!
nites everybody. =)
