So…I’m getting married in about a month but I’m not your typical Bridezilla. Below I share with you some of my confessions and tips if you want to have a no fuss wedding.
- First off, I only began planning my wedding a few weeks ago. I figured less time to plan = less stress.
- I’m keeping it small and personal, about 50 guests.
- Instead of sending out traditional invitations, I decided to share my news of the big day with an electronic invitation. It’s better for the environment, it allows my guests to reply in a very convenient and fast way (one click) and it was FREE.
- Your wedding day should reflect who you are and celebrate your relationship. I’ve chosen to let go of the idea of “tradition” for my wedding because I’m not a traditional person. Doing things just because everyone else does it a certain way would not be true to who I am. Do what works for you and who cares what people think! If they don’t like it, they don’t have to be a part of your celebration.
- Through this process, I’ve enlisted the help of my sister (Maid of Honor) who has been more than helpful in planning my special day. If you’re not hiring a wedding consultant, I highly recommend finding a close friend or relative to help you plan.
- I’m listening to my soon to be husband who doesn’t want to be bothered about every little detail, like what color linens I selected. Don’t burn out your fiance before the big day with constant chatter about the wedding. He will enjoy it in his own way, don’t take it personal: he’s just not that into it.
- Finally, enjoy the aspects that mean the most to you. For me, it’s my wedding day fashion. I have selected a unique dress that fits my style perfectly. As for the shoes, one pair just won’t do. Below are my picks for your bridal style inspiration. Happy (wedding day) Heel Hunting!
