7. Recently married (and not recently) friends will become wedding planners.
They are going to offer advice whether you want it or not. Some may miss the excitement of the wedding planning experience; some will think that they are doing you a favor.
If your friends offer any advice that starts with “you should/shouldn’t do…” take it with a grain of salt. If you like the suggestion, use it. If you don’t, be gracious and thank them then carry on with your plans. They are not doing it to be malicious, but just being well-meaning friends.
8.You’ll watch wedding related movies/TV shows differently.
Whether you have always watched ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ or never have, you will find yourself leaning towards it. Actually, anything weddings related. That’s “normal”. This is where you will find inspiration and ideas.
Watch as much as you want or as little. This is your wedding…Have fun with it!
9. You will have a hard time NOT jumping into wedding planning.
Yes, there is going to seem like a million things to get done/booked/planned. AND it will.
For the first little bit, just enjoy this engagement moment. This is a big life step for both you and your partner…just let it all sink in for a bit before you rush in head on.
