Tiny Wedding vs Big Wedding-
Which is Less Stressful?
Your eyes sparkled, your smile began from the depth of your soul as he slipped the ring on your finger. You gazed into each others eyes and embraced. The sweetness of the moment poured over you like warm rain. Peace intermingled with excitement, was how you described it…
Now the big wedding plans begin…. The guest list grows as more friends of family, not yours, and work acquaintances are suggested. Bridesmaids and dresses are chosen, how many? What style? That warm feeling begins to trickle away. Flowers, table décor, gifts for the brides maids and groomsmen, music for the reception-trickle. Venues, for the wedding and reception, when are they available. Trickle, trickle. Your wedding dress, shoes, hair, this is supposed to be the fun stuff. The enormity of the guest list, the menu, the cake. Everything seems to be growing and growing. Trickle, trickle, trickle. Until the warm rain feeling you had experienced on that special day turned into nerve endings, and you realized, YOU’RE Stressed!
