Wedding Stress.........

With all the fru fru stuff involved with planning a wedding, I have to wonder.....is it all worth it for one day?

I continually have to tell myself that a simple, but fancy, a traditional, yet modern wedding is all worth it. Is a tasteful affair of 400 that goes off without a hitch too much to ask? I am beginning to think that I should have a professional wedding planner. I do have my good buddy Michelle helping me out with advice and suggestions every step of the way, along with my other bridesmaids, but jeeeeesh, this is hard work. I used to think that my job was hard work......boy, was I wrong. Hard work is making sure that what you want/need happens and it isn't easy to guarantee that. As they say, nothing in life is guaranteed. We finally found a new photographer after Steve's uncle needed to step down due to his wife's illness. It is tough finding a photographer that fits your style and is going to deliver what you want when you are only 3 1/2 months away from your blissful day. I just continually pray to God that everything will work out in the end, because this is who God wants me to be with!!!

On a side note, I am blogging from Milwaukee tonight, because I am at an out-of-town conference, but it sure felt good leaving all the school stress in Reedsburg to come where I always feel giddy when I pull into the city limits. It feels weird to say "out-of-town," because I am from here, but Reedsburg is where I live and Milwaukee will always be my home.
