Help & Advice Needed With Go Karting?

Help help help! My daughter is planning her wedding, for April 2012! Advice needed!?

  • My daughter was originally thinking of having their wedding in Winter 2012 or Winter 2013 but the venue she wants have offered a good price for this to go ahead in April 2012, so she has decided to go with that date. However she has nothing at all organised yet! She is finding her self stuck at having to make so many decisions and choose so many things BUT seems resistant at taking any help or asking for it! I have offered to help wherever she needs it, but she just isn't taking me up and I alm worried about her This should be an enjoyable time, planning your wedding, shouldn't it? Its already feeling so stressful! Any advice please? Thanks x

  • Answer:

    I can understand both her stress and your concern. The only thing you can do is be supportive, try to be helpful but step away when you can tell she is getting overwhelmed. Maybe talk to the groom about how stressful this is for her so he can keep reassuring her it will all be perfect. I know what would be helpful for me in that situation is if my mom were to do the background work, but let me make the final choice. What i mean is maybe you can do the research and gather options on such things as caterers, photographers, bands, etc. Then she can just pick from them and it takes a lot of the leg work out. That leaves her to focus on decisions only she can make. Then make a fun mother daughter and maid of honor day out of dress shopping. get lunch maybe a spa and dress shopping. To take stress off her picking the bridesmaid dresses, have her and the maid of honor pick out options. For instance at the last wedding i was in we had seperates. We all had the same skirt and 4 different tops that we could choose from and order on our own. It takes the stress out of of choosing the right gown for everyone. Sounds like you are on the right path with wanting to be supportive, remember that when she gets stressed, mean and bitchy. Just be there for her and it will all come out beautiful in the end.

The first thing you need to do is make a plan. Make a list of everything that needs to be done and the date it needs to be done by. Once the item is done, write all the information needed for it (i.e. contact information, price, etc.) on the list and highlight it, symbolizing that it is done. A month before the wedding, double check everything on the list. Here's the start of a list with the most important things first... -Determine colors and theme of wedding -Find attire (bride, groom, wedding party, parents) -Find photographer -Find caterer and cake baker -Determine decorations (Are you buying? Making them on your own? Not having any?)
