Just as the wedding planning season is about to start full pelt, I thought I would take a minute to think about what really matters when you are planning your wedding. Its the one big day in your life when you declare to the world and each other, that you want to spend your lives together. As you go through the whirlwind of wedding planning its very easy to get so bogged down with all the details and organising, that you can forget the true goal of the day, which is to promise to love and take care of each other.
The Wedding Genie’s passion is to plan and coordinate weddings but we also want to ensure that you start your married life with a good foundation for a long and happy marriage. With this in mind before you even start to think about finding the venue, dress etc have a think about the fundamentals of what you promise to vow to each other.
Check out one of the best weddings I have ever seen. Yes its fiction but it illustrates how simply it can be to get married.Yes its fantastic to have the biggest budget in the world and spend as much money as you like on that designer wedding dress or the most exclusive venue, food and wine, but at the end of the day its your promises to each other that will stand the test of time.
So if you want to get married on a shoe string it does not mean that your wedding won’t be anything less special than a wedding with the budget of a small nation. Its what you put into the day that counts. If you get caught up in the whirlwind of wedding planning and loose sight, take a minute and check back here to see what is really important.
Until next time, happy planning.
