I am a firm believer of everything you have posted, and I always will be. I thank yo soo much for reminding me
And I do agree w/ the best wedding; the best wedding I've gone to was at a little hall, where the bride, and groom and family did all the decor. All of the aunts, and grandmothers made dishes for all to eat, and it was buffet style. Lots, of family, anf Friends. It was the best!

Re: Advice to brides

bumping because I think some ladies could use some good advice when it comes to dealing with people making demands for your wedding

This was great to read. The thing that struck me the most was the part about the photography. That was something I was stressing about. The 'naturalness' of my photographer's photos was what made me fall in love with her work so I need to just let her do her thing!

WOW! This could NOT have come at a better time. I've been so stressed out because the 2nd batch of lavender ribbon I ordered for my DIY invitations was 2 shades lighter than the 1st. This was my sign. I'm letting it go & finishing my invitations with the 'Lilac Mist' ribbon instead of the 'Lavender Orchid'!!!!! Who's gonna know?

Thank you soooooo much for slapping me in the face with a reality check!!!!! You deserve an award of excellency! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I had to bump it - I know some girls are getting unneccessary grief from people and the section about $ and people making demands is so great.

So while I'm not a bride anymore, thanks for posting the article!
