Hello everyone
Congratulations to all engaged or married! I don't post too often but am I the only one who has noticed this major change?
This will be my 2nd marriage, his 1st. I'm an older soon-to-be bride, been doing homework to make 'our day' special for our new blended family. The whole wedding process has totally changed since I first got married! I keep seeing that the main focus or 'trend' that seems to be top priority during this process which both of us decided not to follow.
Why does the primary focus on every wedding site seems to be all about 'pleasing' every need of our guests and away from 'us' the happy couple...who will be paying for everything so guests will enjoy & remember they had a blast? The happy couple are still the primary reason why guests are invited to SHARE in their celebration, not how much free liquor & fancy foods they will consume before, during & after the ceremony or enjoy a swanky celebrity styled venue with a huge band plus expect to take home elaborate party 'gifts'. I understand its about celebrating with the couple but this current trend is taking the spotlight off of the couple of needing to please their potential invited guests.
Too Old-Fashioned Ceremony?
