It hasn't even started yet
The wedding planning is already getting frustrating. I feel like I am planning this myself. I am not the traditional bride who has been dreaming about their wedding since she was a little girl. I thought if I had, then the courthouse would be the practical thing to do. Well...FDR has been dreaming about a wedding since he was little...but guess who is unavailable to plan their dream wedding? So now I feel stuck planning a wedding that is for someone else. I do have girlfriends who will help with things, but I really want him to be involved in the process. Today, the caterer was calling him to follow up on the deposit and finalizing a contract, so what does he do? Calls me and asks me to call them back. Did he ask them any questions about what they need or what we need? No. I call them. It took two seconds to be done with what needed to be done. I'm annoyed. He says he having a rough day and that he's tired. It seems like everyday he is having a rough day and is tired. What about my rough and tired days? We still have responsibilities to attend to, especially when it involves time and money. My venting sesh is over. I hope I never become a bridezilla because my groom can't help plan is own wedding. Lame.

I'm new to your blog... and I too, am in a long distance relationship with my doctor friend. We are planning on getting married next summer (although no official proposal yet!) but I can JUST picture myself writing this exact blog post you have just written!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not the one dreaming of the perfect wedding, it's him - and he will be completely unavailable next summer. Should be super fun!
I know it's an emotional rollercoaster, but taking everyday one at a time makes it easier to handle. The wedding will be a beautiful day even though the fuss of planning it takes away some of the appeal.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading and best wishes!
