Wedding Mayhem

It is in times like this that you need to pause, take a step back and restart everything. This is your opportunity to think outside the box. If no one has RSVPed, there's really nobody to please but yourselves. 


My greatest wedding regret is to have my family say they are coming and then hide in a room somewhere during the entire meal leaving the whole table empty except my parents, his parents and my godparents' family. My four siblings and their families all hid in another room because one of them told the rest that there wasn't enough food.... 


To cut the long story short, don't please anyone but yourselves on that day. You might even consider eloping.... Just think outside the box maybe? My brother had his on a cruise..


Weddings are once in a lifetime so even though it's not fun planning it now, please try to make it as fun as possible, because if it's not, the wedding can't be fun either. Sometimes it can be a reflection of how much you've enjoyed each other during the planning process. I know this sounds silly but to me, it's the little things that make everything better. Ice cream and chocolate might be some of those little things that make me happy. And when I sprinkle some of these little joys into something disastrous, at the end of the day, everything is perfect because that's what people remember and most importantly, that's what you remember.
