Planning a Wedding is Hard

I am an event planner by nature. It’s in my bones. I try to turn everything into something I can plan. In meditation, the hardest types of thoughts for me to let go are planning thoughts. So I thought, surely, planning a wedding would be a cinch! And then, we decided to elope first, and I assumed I could do the whole thing in my sleep. Well…

Turns out, trying to make decisions around an event that is going to signify the biggest commitment I’ve made in my life is, like, really hard. Add to that the need for the decision-making to be a team effort, and my brain nearly shuts down. 😅 But hey, we did it! We picked the date, decided on the location, figured out how we would get there, found the people we needed to conduct and capture the ceremony, and wrapped our heads around all the legalities of getting hitched. (All this in the midst of the apocalypse, mind you.) Paperwork, premarital counseling, rings, licenses, permits, I mean… it’s like marriage is a big deal or something!

Anyway, I am finally at that point in planning an event where I get to just focus on the details and create spreadsheets. My favorite part. I am so excited to marry Jeremy Lister and have never felt so sure of a relationship in my life. What a journey it has been to get to this point. What a journey we have planned for our weddingmoon. And what a journey we have in store together as husband and wife!

Thank you for following along. We have lots of stories to tell. 🤗
