Man, I just thought about my goals in context of what the goals for the 2000dollarwedding were. Mine are so much more caveman than hers! Yikes...I guess what really matters to me is having a good party, but we aren't really feeling close to people right now. I think it makes a big difference whether or not you are really connected to your social group or whether they are all moving out of state currently. I wish I could feel more connected, but I think a part of me has been isolating myself because I am afraid of just gabbing everyone's head off about wedding plans and realizing at the end of the night that I haven't actually listened to others.
And that is what I hate most about planning a wedding. Whether you want to talk about it or not, all conversation seems to swirl around the topic. Even when I make a concious effort to not talk about it, someone always asks. Arg.

My solution to talking about it too much and annoying my friends was to join the wedding message board I mentioned earlier. The gals there don't mind talking about weddings all day and all night! (This is probably also why I am so enthusiastically commenting with you this week!) :)
ReplyDeleteGood call! I am finding it very helpful to pout all of my wedding energy into online forums as well. It's funny, the planning is so all-consuming but I hate talking to "normal" brides because I just want to tell them how ridiculous they are for spending $3,000 on a custom dress they will wear for 3 hours! But those sites you have listed are amazing, I would have never known!
