The top 3 challenges/difficulties of planning the wedding.
1. Managing drama with grace, impartiality, and understanding.
2. Going to endless appointments and choosing between apples and oranges.
3. Fitting everything you want to do in just one evening (yes, time goes by very fast!).
The top 3 most fun/easiest parts of planning the wedding.
1. Having a mother with excellent taste that specializes in all things wedding who genuinely wants to plan every detail of your wedding for you.
2. Trying on wedding dresses.
3. Picking flowers and table arrangements; so many sparkly things to choose from!
What fun/unique feature of your wedding made you the proudest?
Having people from literally all over the world attend my special day. From my in laws in Kentucky to a former teacher in Tunisia, Africa, I was the most happy and proud that the special people in my life showed that I was equally as special to them by making the trip out to California for me.
If you had it to do over, what would you change, add or do differently?
Put up a 7 minute dome of silence over my table so I could have shoved my face with the delicious food I picked. Love you all, but I was so hungry and shoveling food into my mouth between “Thank You’s” was not easy! Also, a person dedicated to bringing drinks to the bride so I didn’t have to literally bum sips off of all my friends. No time to visit the bar.
