After dreaming about it your whole life Mr perfect finally proposes, and with no question about it you of course say yes! You gleefully tell friends and family, you rush to set the date, life couldn’t be any better… then comes the wedding planning, a tad stressful – to say the least, all of the juggling of time and money, working your way through endless to do lists, ignoring interfering comments from friends and family and resisting the will to just ‘give in’ when your maid of honour announces that she will be nine months pregnant and about to pop on the date.
Incredibly you got through it, you kept your sanity and the day is set to run as smoothly as clockwork! But wait, what’s that? – The niggling feeling that certainly something will go wrong, disaster will strike! Never fear, we are here to set your mind at ease, here are a few answers to the most common concerns experienced by a bride to be.
The NO-show -Will he be waiting for me at the alter? – Of course, relax, he was the one to ask you after all, even with those little not so subtle hints he still made the executive decision to ask you all by himself! Plus he hasn’t headed for the hills yet- he has stuck around for the planning of the day itself when yes maybe once or twice bridezilla threw a tantrum or two. He’s in for the long haul and cannot wait to make you his wife!
*It’s definitely recommend that you make it clear to the ‘best mate’ to not whisk the stags off too ‘pre-wedding’ at least a week before is safe, a hung-over groom, a groom in a jail cell or a groom in another country would not be wedding bliss!
Your bridesmaids – strong and in control, not a chance in hell that they are going to let anything spoil your day. Rely on them, delegate to them, they are your closest friends and you know you can trust there decision making. Let them deal with any problems that may occur, leaving yourself free to enjoy and experience your day.
* A recovery kit is a great idea to combat any little problems regarding unplanned predicaments, leave it in the hands of your most trusted bridesmaid (the most sensible out of the group, not the one most likely to have snook off with the best man) small enough to be kept in her bag, consisting of useful bits like nail varnish to combat chipped nails and ladders in stockings! Hairspray to keep your locks looking glamorous, a mini sewing kit to fix snags or tears, baby wipes to remove any marks and stains, makeup for beauty touch ups and perfume to keep you smelling wonderful.
Good company – Surround yourself with it, enjoy the ride, benefit all of the details that you put into place during your planning. Laugh, catch up with relatives, enjoy being a newly wed, laugh at the speeches, enjoy the food, drink your champagne, dance at your disco and enjoy the simple fact that all of your hard work has paid off, each and every one of your guests have come to celebrate the union of you and your new husband.
The after thoughts-
After all the time and effort that was ploughed into the big day its all over, its time for the debrief. Now what will you do with all of your time? Your life of marital bliss has begun, you can focus on your new life as a Mrs, and if that’s not enough, you can busy yourself with present opening, thank you cards , honeymooning, name change forms, wedding albums…
