I recently met with a couple who impressed me--they were so in sync with the planning details.
When talking about the vows, I wanted to point out that different religious traditions and denominations have their own unique wording for the vows. As I began to explain this, the groom interrupted and said that they had already checked out the particular wordings and had made their selection.
I was amazed. I’ve never met a groom who was this well-versed. How did he do it?
The bride smiled and told me that while she does most of the initial research on various aspects of the planning, she runs everything by her fiancé.
She said: this is our wedding and I’d never do anything that we didn’t both agree on.
From my perspective this is how a couple should plan for their wedding. Too often a groom will say: whatever she wants is fine with me. That’s cute and in some aspects is probably wise. A wedding, though, is a bride AND groom’s celebration day. It will be a shared memory.
Plan together and I promise that you will reduce stress!
