Weekend Recap | Wedding Planning
7:47 PM
I haven't done much planning. Partially because I have two friends getting married this year and my focus has been on helping them get through their process. The other part is because I can't decide on a wedding planner. I'm a DIY type person, I can't bring myself to pay for something I know I can do. What I can say I've accomplished is began to finalize my venue (this process took a little over a month), picked a photographer, and picked out some potential DJs.
As excited as I am, T is just as excited...but in a different way. How, you ask....? Well every time I mention wedding planning he "fake falls asleep". It's actually funny to me. But it happens every. single. time. So I finally got to the point where instead of me talking wedding every single day, all day long. I asked, "What's a day we can sit down and talk about wedding planning?" This became a good compromise.
What I've learned so far:
1. He's a man. He doesn't care about if I get Tulips or Roses. He's just excited for the moment and the day to come.
2. He's excited too. Just not the "same exact way" I am and that's okay.
3. He's a tell me what needs to be done (and it gets done type). Which takes us back to number one.
So here's to the next few months of planning: wedding websites, honeymoon ideas, and registries. I'm on the hunt for vintage shops, antiques, and the bridal stores people aren't too familiar with . This month I'll finish The Meaning of Marriage by Timothy Keller. I also plan to read 31 Prayers for my Future Husband!
If you have any other book or shops recommendations let me know in the comments below. Happy Sunday!

First of all I want to say congratulations to you both once again. My husband and I did marriage counseling before we got married and my pastor advised us to read The Five Love Languages "The Secret To Love That Lasts"by Gary Chapman. I found it very helpful to my marriage it has definitely bought my husband and I so much closer and I think it would do the same for you guys love you guys lots hope you enjoy it.
