How To Avoid Having To Cancel Your Wedding
What can I do to avoid having to cancel my wedding?
The main thing is if you really, truly are in love then realistically you could probably get married without having a wedding. If you are saying to yourself, I know, but I have always wanted that wedding -- OK, no problem. But realistically if it came down to it and someone said, would you could still get married even if you couldn't have the party? And you were able to say yes, then you probably are ready to get married. And vice versa. If the party is more important to you than your fiance is, then you probably should just have a frigging great party and don't worry about connecting it to a wedding. I have had a couple clients who have come to me for really great, amazing birthday parties, and they've said I'm probably never going to get married and, therefore, it is realistic for me to have a great blow-out bash. I let them register for gifts, and I let them do fun things like that because they may never have a wedding. That's completely appropriate. Nowadays it is so much more appropriate for people to stay single for a lot longer, and it's so much more a problem for people to be OK with divorce. So, realistically, if you are a confirmed bachelor or bachelorette -- live it up. Have that great party. Register for the great shoes or bags or video games that you want, and don't worry about connecting it with a wedding.
