the best part of wedding preparation

when i have free time,
i'll head to the library to look up on wedding preparation books/guides/manuals for me to get some inspirations and an idea on what i should look out for my wedding.
i've got a notebook where i scribble anything that came to my mind regarding the wedding.
it could be really random stuff.
that notebook will be handy when the time comes for us to make decisions.

i guess a wedding somehow shows what kind of personality you've got.
i really think that it doesn't have to cost a bomb for the wedding to look grand/classy/sleek,
you have to be smart at where to spend on and focus on the important things.
at the end of the day,
i'll try not to bother about what people would say,
because for sure people will talk no matter how perfect you think your wedding is.
if it's not about the cake, it would be the dress,
not the dress, it would be the dais,
not the dais, the food,
not food, then theme,
not theme then other things.
but i can't do anything.
it is my wedding,
it is what makes me happy and what will remain in my memory.
not about pleasing everyone because everyone has different taste.
but of course the partner and i won't be selfish not to think about our guests.
we would try our very best to have good food, door gifts for them.
=)

do you know what's the best part of the wedding preparation?
the themes?
nope.
being able to try on wedding dresses?
nope.
visualising how the wedding is going to be like?
nope.
i have 2.
one is being engaged.
somehow it makes me feel different.
don't know how different but in a good way.
the second best part is the pre marriage guidance course.
that's the best thing about getting married.
to know more about the partner and work towards a happier and much more understanding relationship.
to argue effectively,
understand the needs,
pleasing one another,etc.
a phrase that i heard before,

i agree on that.
which is why i think focusing on sustaining a healthy relationship is important and worthy amongst the others.
all the money and efforts for the wedding would be wasted if your marriage crumbles.
i really can't wait to attend the pre marriage guidance course!
i really want to know how to be a good the best wife to my husband and work towards it.

i want a marriage that lasts.
amin.
a marriage that makes the both of us grow, enjoy each other company and be grateful to the Almighty to bless us with each other.

to me,
a good marriage is not about spending the most on the wedding day itself.
but a good marriage is about how both of you works things out as a team.
because once you get married,
there's so much to look at,
parents-in-laws, the sudden increase of relatives, house, car, children, finances, friends of the opposite sex, sex life, mood swings, health issues and many others.
you'll have to find someone who you think that works very, very, very well with you.

so for my readers who are getting married or who are already married,
what's your best part of your wedding preparation?
share with me.
=)

honey,
you chose me,
i chose you.
let's pray that the Almighty bless this relationship.
=)
