wedding planning is tough stuff.....

As I was reading my favorite blog, Wedding Bee, I was inspired to post. The post I read was about a bride reflecting on the planning process after the wedding.

While reading this post, it made me think of all the emotions/actions that come with planning the wedding. Some of these are stress, financial burdens, worrying, breakdowns, trying to please both worlds (all the families), anxiety...etc. Planning a wedding is tough stuff. Besides stressing on how to pay for it all (probably FI's biggest stress) is trying to please both families. Before moving to the beach, I hadn't been able to really connect with the in laws. Sure we have spent time together and we took one trip together to Jamaica. However, I didn't really see them much before we were engaged. Now, I am trying to make life decisions with them and it is so hard for me. So that is a stress of mine. This doesn't even mention all the projects and trying to complete them all! Plus the scheduling with vendors, emails, etc. and all in a timely manner!

The conclusion is that wedding planning is complicated and involves a lot of people's opinions... I am looking forward to the wedding day and the happiness it will bring!!

I started my new nannying job this week. It is going really well shadowing the other nanny and trying to get to know the girls. They are 3 year old twin girls who have been with this nanny since they were 6 months..WOW. I know it is really hard for them (the whole family) and I feel like I am the bad guy, even though its not my fault at all. Its just a phase and I know things are only going to get better.

Well, after I work all day at their house on Friday, I have to drive to Charlotte for a florist meeting on Saturday...ugh. I love the planning, but I don't feel like driving 3 hours to meet with a lady about flowers. Oh well, vent over. I am meeting with Wilmont Florist in Charlotte and when I get back, I'll let you know how it goes!!
