Getting married is a balancing act. I never quite understood this until my guy proposed.

What\’s the big deal in wedding planning? I always thought. You set a date, pick a place, settle on a band, choose a few of your favorite flowers and do a dinner and cake tasting. What\’s difficult about that?

It\’s not difficult. In fact, that part\’s been rather fun. However, the part that I am complaining about is the negotiations between family and friends. Trying to please everyone is proving impossible.
