IF YOU'RE FEELING DOWN ABOUT THE DRAMA TODAY . . .

. . . look at, or start working on, your guest list/seating chart.
You'll focus on those who love you and support you and get your mind off the BS . . . plus, it's a complicated task that takes longer than we think!

Thinking about who will be there and where they will sit (how close to you, how close to the music, etc.) gets your mind onto those who really count and the day that really matters, which is NOT today!!!!!

I'm scared to make the seating chart, I haven't even began to think of where to seat people...

It's so hard . . . . I had no idea . . . you will find yourself adding tables because these 5 and these 3 have no one to match up with, but then what??

Of course a good band/DJ means no one sits . . . so I'm going to suck it up and fill the tables as best I can . . . . I do recommend working on it early so you can keep at it over time.

I was thinking about that yesterday. For example if your counting on 120 guests, you would think quickly and say oh, 10 at a table thats 12 tables... but it's really not that simple, because everyone has to be paired up differently, aunts with other aunts, couples of course together..etc..

And then my mind wandered, and how do you even know how many guests are going to def. come...which could be more/less tables..

And from there it kept wandering into how do you know how many CPs to ask your florist for?

This wedding is too much thinking!!!!
