having a wedding party can create stress

Everything is fun at first!

You celebrate, you toast, you buy your outfits and start the planning process. And then come the opinions.

  • they will disagree on your chosen date

  • they will find a reason why you should choose another wedding venue

  • they will share their disapproval of the attire style and color you choose

  • they will forget deadlines and delay alterations until the day before

  • they won’t be able to attend all of the festivities

  • they won’t like the price tag attached to it all

  • you won’t like when they ask to bring their Plus one they just met

  • you will spend a lot of money for gifts, hair and make up, transportation, accommodation..

  • the bouquets and boutonnieres contribute heavily towards your spending

Is it worth the headache?

  • the photos are beautiful

  • you will create amazing memories

  • it feels wonderful when they make the time to celebrate you

  • I suggest that the wedding party meets a few times before the wedding to get know each other if they don’t already

  • only you can decide if it’s worth the headache.. just be prepared that it won’t be all smooth sailing, it’s part of the journey
