Take a deep breath, block out time in your diary (quiet evening, bottle of wine), and sit down together with your fiance to work out if you actually want the same thing.
- Is it church or civil, beach or garden?
- How do you want people to remember your wedding? Fun, glamorous, romantic, funky, different, traditional?
- Morning or afternoon?
- Big (100+) , medium (50 - 100) or intimate (20+)?
If you are coming up with different ideas, then listen to each others reasons behind each choice made and then, as with all good marriages...... compromise.
I believe that organising a wedding is natures way of testing a relationship. It's a bit like 9 months of pregnancy, it can give you sleepless nights and indigestion, but by talking things through and asking people for help along the way, it can be really exciting and incredibly satisfying to see the beautiful end result.
So, get started, start planning, and remember..... have fun!
