I have said time and time again that I do not plan weddings because there is WAYYYY too much drama! If you were to analyze my personality and emotions without knowing me...you would think I was a man. I become annoyed quickly with the over dramatic emotions women can display unnecessarily. It's such a waste of time and energy. Over the last two years I have been consistently attending weddings for friends, family, strangers, friends of friends, etc. Each time it seems like the bride is all stressed out instead of enjoying what is supposed to be the happiest day of her life.
I keep hearing about how the family wants to take over, especially mothers and mother-in-laws. I do not understand why this happens so often. Didn't they already have their day? Why are they so overbearing with their opinions? Is it because their mothers did it to them, so they don't feel like they got the wedding they wanted? Is it simply because they're paying the bill? I truly do not understand this ridiculousness.
Weddings have been happening for centuries yet we still can't seem to get it right. The focus should be on the commitment that is being made by two people who truly love each other. Instead, people get offended and sometimes hold grudges for years because of incidents revolving around the wedding. LET IT GO and pay attention to what is really happening. I truly believe that the honeymoon is for couple, so they can get away from their family and spend some time living drama free!
Ahhh...I feel better now.
This is sooo true and luckily I have only been in the audience of weddings and not within a wedding party. I think I would be the one to pass my duties over to someone else if alot of unnecessary drama occured
