Today I bought wedding magazines.
This was a mistake.
You want to know why this was a mistake? Well, I'm going to tell you. BECAUSE THE WEDDING INDUSTRY IS COMPLETELY BRIDE-ORIENTED AND IS NOT HELPING ME AT ALL.
I suppose this is good in its way, because it gives us license to invent our own traditions and make our own decisions, but on the other hand . . . I would really like to do this right.
At this rate you lot will be lucky if you get a cup of water and a slice of cake at the reception, I hope you realize that.
And you're only getting cake because Lorne wants cake.

I mean, seriously, if we just wanted simple we could do the registration and be done with it. But we want a party. People will be coming from a long way away and I want to dance with my husband at our wedding, dammit.

So have a party and dance at your wedding. Who says you have to figure everything out right now? Take a deep breath, make a list of things to figure out, and take things a day at a time, or you're gonna end up driving yourself mad.

I do have a list. I have many lists. I look at these lists and I just get overwhelmed.

I've been there, mate, alright? It'll fall together somehow. And if you need something, ask, yeah?

Again, true. But you don't necessarily have to do it on your own. And it will turn out alright, even if a few of the details get glossed over. What's important is that it's a party for the two of you and so long as you're happy, everyone else will (most likely) be too.

And with Lorne's family in particular, traveling thousands of miles to see us, I want to show them a good time.

Understandable. If there's anything I can do, let me know.
