Wedding

Weddings are the most amazing yet stressful thing anyone can plan! I was asked to be a brides maid in my sister-in-law’s wedding for this coming April. Deep inside, I’ve never had to really plan a wedding before.  My husband and I went to the courthouse to legalize our marriage and had a quick reception for close family at my parents’ house, so there was no dress, no DJ, or no first dance. I feel a little saddened that I never took the opportunity to just plan a wedding and make memories.  I’m also the type of person that LOVES to plan weddings, birthday parties or just even get-togethers. I love to cook so I normally prep all the appetizers and get party favors.
So when my sister-in-law asked me, I had already started to plan to hire a DJ, and get someone to do the hair for the wedding. It seems I might be over my head with the whole planning, but I love to do it!
So with the whole wedding going on, what really goes into planning a wedding? How much do decent weddings cost now-a-days? I’m glad it’s not me planning the wedding and I think that was one reason why I never had a wedding of my own.  It’s the money you must fork up to make sure you make memories and make sure your guests have a great time.
Is it really worth the stress and the headaches to plan a wedding that will only last a day? So until I start to really get into the wedding mode of helping out my sister-in-law/bride, I might have to eat my own words of seeing how easy planning a wedding might be.  We’ll see!
