Weddings

There are so many programs on TV now about planning weddings, choosing the right dress, Bridesilla, all of them are easy to get sucked into. When you are planning a wedding, it takes over your life...you need to make decisions, plan ahead, find venues, music, food, church, drink...it's all overwhelming. It just seems to take a life of its own....this wedding, and it becomes a part of your life, for the year or so that you are getting the whole thing together. Everyone feels like they are so important, the wedding revolves around them. Even though that person may be a distant cousin of a family member who actually met either one of the happy couple 10 years ago, yet they are so close to everyone in the family, and will be offended if they don't have just the right seat.
Personally I feel that the couple have the last say on everything. It is their wedding, they will only do it once...(hopefully) and they should do exactly what they want. I don't care who is paying for anything...the wedding couple have the say.
I really think that Rob and I had the wedding that we really wanted. If the old bags had something to say, I think we ignored them. They were pretty good about the whole thing actually. We just had a great time, and so did parents.
Any who, we are going to Ohio for a wedding. How fun! I am driving with Abe, Sam, Bri, and Jake. We are going to see Grandma, she needs to meet Sam. She is going to absolutely love it, and so are we. Then the Big Fat Griff/Alanna wedding. I am so looking forward to that.
