wedding planning update

The biggest lesson Rory and I are learning about planning a wedding...if you make a great team, you won't have any stress - it's the family that adds unnecessary stress to just about everything.

It would help if people stopped saying things like, "that's so far", "i don't like that colour", and "that's not my style" and started saying things like, "i'm so happy for you", "can i do anything to help", and "i can't wait to celebrate with you".

Otherwise, I can't wait for October 31st to be here!

on the good side, glad to hear that the plans are easier going with all the help...

it's the marriage that's important, not the wedding. :o)

First of all it is your and Rory's weeding and not theirs (well I guess if in the wedding party that muddles it since they want to look pretty and Nice). That being said there is a way to say things and a way not to say things and they are saying them the wrong way. If they don't like the colour what they should say is "Are You sure, I don't think that is a good choice" then follow that up with "It is your wedding so what ever you want just let me Know" You can disagree with someone's choices and still be supportive at the same time and it sounds like they aren't doing that. I can't wait to see how things come out, it will be a great time. Well unless I'm like in the back row and there is a row of like Basketball player in front of me so I can't see anything, HA. But even so that would be ok because it is about you 2 and not me. I think that often people often forget that and also that they know what is better for you then you do. I'm not saying you shouldn't be upset. I'm saying that I'm hoping that what they are saying is said with good intentions but I don't know if they are or not.

Haven't RSVP'd yet b/c I wasn't sure if I was bringing a guest or not- but then yesterday my new boy told me he was putting in for the days off, so it looks like I'm coming, and so is he. :) yay!! I'm excited for you.

Oh yeah- is there any sort of halloweeny theme?
