As a mother of TWO brides in the next 6 months, I would like to thank you for this. Wonderful advice very well stated. I’m hoping they will both read, absorb and benefit from your experience… since it’s not coming from mom, they probably will. :-)

Girlfriend, go look at the rest of my wedding. Plenty of pictures. And you're welcome.

Dear Meg,

Thank you sooo much for this wonderful post! I must say this has been everything I’ve been wishing to hear for the last few weeks, despite of lack of pictures which become unnecessary when what you say is already powerful.
I just recently got engaged, and I’m drowning in information, tips, inspirational sites, budget warnings and to-do-lists that grow by the minute. All I really wanted on this quest so far is the psychology of this important process which amounts to a single day in my life, and the most important yet.
It’s easy to pick a dress and venue, flowers and such, but is so important to be reminded, like you’ve done here, that you must stay grounded, follow your heart and understand that you are planning so many things for a few hours of a day just to perform one of the greatest acts of love side by side with your life partner.

Just had to say it.

Thank you,
Neysha

[...] fear of regret - if we don’t do XYZ, we’ll regret it, so we better do it just in case. And what I learned during the planning is that you almost never regret following your heart (or gut), but you almost always regret doing [...]

This is the single best collection of wedding advice I’ve ever read. I’m in the middle of all of it as we speak and just THIS evening I experienced 5 instances in which I would have been better prepared had I known this existed. I’ve cried, fought with my fiance, fought with my mother, pursued a new idea about ceremony and made up with my fiance all in one night. This has made me feel a lot better. Thank you.

Amen. It is about so much more than inspiration boards and a lot about hauling. Speaking from the perspective of a professional "stage manager." Congratulations Meg! xo
