No kidding ... Have you ever thought about how your future hubby perceives this excruciating wedding planning process?
Here's a excerpt of the article I recently wrote on our website:
She says: "Do you prefer the Lilac or the Lavender ink for our invitations?"
You think: "I don't really care it looks the same to me."
You say: "I really have no opinion; I'll leave it up to you."
She says: "See, it's always the same with you. You don't care about anything. You don't care about this wedding. You're so frustrating"
You think: "I guess I need to have an opinion, I'll pick one of the colors."
You say: "I guess I prefer the Lilac"
She says: "Why do you like the Lilac better?"
You think:
"Oh no, it's not enough to have an opinion about flowery colors, now I
have to have a reason for it. I picked one because you wanted me to
pick one!"
At that moment you have a strike of a genius and you say something really great like:
You say: "I think your mom would like the Lilac better"
Or
You say: "I think it would match better with the bridesmaid dresses"
She says: "Yes, you might be right... but I really like the Lavender. It is so much more us. Is it OK if we go with the lavender?"
You think: "Why in the world did we go through all of this if
she was going to get it her way regardless and I was OK with either
option anyways?"
You say: "Of course sweetheart!"
