The months spent planning your wedding is a whirlwind and everyone
else is well...not as caught up in the funnel as you are, except maybe YOUR MOTHER!
They really should have a name for this crazy, emotional time. Email me if
you come up with one!
Another thing...TRY, TRY, TRY to be inclusive.
That is really listen to other opinions, ideas, and
tips because usually the people giving them out have been
there before. It also helps in the long run. I'm talking
strategy here...think... The more inclusive you are now,
the more other people involved in this "thing" will be
motivated apt to hear you out. What do I mean?
There is a lot of psychology going on just underneath
the surface. If your listening to someone else, and they
feel they are being HEARD, then in turn they will LISTEN.
Communication 101, yes, but every bit counts when your
talking the involved and volatile nature of wedding and
family. As time goes on this "psychology" will become
more apparent, and as your wedding day approaches things
may have a tendancy to flair up. Remain calm
and remember, this too will pass, just as the big day will.
