I wonder what life will be like in one year.... George and I will be (happily?) married. Living in our new house together. Probably settled into a comfortable sleep, work, cook, eat, sleep routine.
Right now, my entire brain seems to be screaming "wedding... Wedding... WEDDING!!!!" So much to do, so many decisions to make.
We've screened so many vendors already (venue and catering, photography, videography, decorators), and I feel like we have just gotten started. I have probably sent out more emails in the last month than I did in the past year (possible hyperbole). And then after gathering all that data, we have to make a decision. And I'm not good at decision making... Perhaps I'm afraid of making the "wrong" decision. What if we regret this choice later on?!
Weddings have become overblown extravaganzas. Our culture puts an emphasis on THE PERFECT WEDDING. I am told by Pinterest, The Knot, Facebook, Instagram that I need the perfect dress, the perfect venue, the perfect photographer, the perfect day. I even have been googling "weather in September" to perhaps unconsciously will the weather into submission for my wedding day! There's an insane amount of pressure to manufacture "the best day of my life."
Do other bride-to-be's enjoy it? Supposedly wedding planning is amazing, but I'm over it. I'm ready for the quiet and routine of next year to roll around!
