the wedding season



how many brides pictured their wedding day from the day they first heard of cinderella and prince charming, beauty and the beast, snow white, fairytale, romance, love, happily ever after..the works.

did those very same brides get their picture perfect wedding? the ones they've always wanted. their own wedding. not the wants of the mother of the brides or that of the countless aunties who pitch in to help with this frill and that flower, this colour and that theme.

would you rather plan and execute your own wedding or have others do it for you?

i'd rather just have a wedding. regardless. so long as it's picture perfect in simplicity. but we don't get it all our way do we :)

happy planning to the future brides & grooms.

From an excerpt of North & South by Elisabeth Gaskell

in the midst of marriage preparations..

Margaret: But are all these quite necessary troubles?

Brother of the groom: Oh of course. There are forms and ceremonies to be gone through, not so much to satisfy oneself, as to stop the world's mouth, without which stoppage there would be very little satisfaction in life.

to that i must say, word! LOL.

DOT.
