Do you think there is a conspiracy
theory between wedding professionals in making appointments with you as
inconvenient as possible?
Do you feel like it’s so labor
intensive to get everything finished?
Are you finding that you and your fiancé are so frazzled and at each
other’s throats because it doesn’t seem like the appointments can be made when
the both of you can attend together so you want to blame the wedding
professionals for making these appointments so problematic? (Okay. That was a long, run-on sentence) Anyway, are you asking why the appointments can’t
always be made on the weekend?
Well, let me try to explain why this may
be the case. Think about what day of the
week your wedding occurs. Most likely,
it will be on a Saturday or Sunday, right?
When will your wedding professionals be working for you? That’s right.
On a Saturday or Sunday. This
means your wedding professionals are most likely currently working at another wedding
or event that is also being held on a Saturday or Sunday, and that is their
first priority. Therefore, that makes
them unavailable for appointments on the weekends most of the time. They are not purposely making it difficult
for you. In fact, several wedding
professionals are willing to schedule evening appointments if the both of you
can’t come during the weekday. Keep in
mind, they just want to give the same attention to their current clients as
they will with you when it is your day.
We try our hardest to make
appointments at the best times possible to be convenient for all parties
involved. However, that’s not always
the case for the reasons I mentioned above.
Stop for a minute and look at that
drop dead, gorgeous ring on your finger, look at the love of your life and think
about your commitment to one another.
Planning for that commitment is getting you one step further to your
goal – getting married to the man of your dreams. Yes, there will be bumps along the planning
process road, but how you handle them will be what counts.
So stop frazzling about things that
are not in your control. It will get
done. You will get married.
Dear Brides: Does this
sound like you? Are you and your fiancé
stressing out about the wedding planning?
