The Great Debate

As much of the country finds their way to the polls today, I took a moment to ponder all the "for" and "against" arguments of the election. It seems people's opinions became more vocal than ever before. While this great nation of ours does give us the freedom to choose both who we want and what we want them to do, it is not so in every life matter. To be specific, weddings are usually decided on by only the Bride and Groom, and possibly a few close family members and friends.

Just like the elections, not everyone is going to be happy with the decisions you make for your big day. Although you want everyone to enjoy themselves and possibly comment on how good the food and music was, it is ultimately your choices that shape the wedding.

Now, at Be In Love Designs, we do believe that your wedding should be planned and carried out the way you want. Yet we want you to remember you have guests attending the wedding that might not agree with your choices - and it's OK.

A great example of this: you and your fiance' love hamburgers, but half of your guest list is vegetarian. Choose to serve mini hamburgers as an appetizer instead of as your main meal. If you take the time to compare what you want for your wedding to what it will take to please those attending the wedding, you can have a well executed event that everyone will enjoy.

Lessons of this post:
• Look at BOTH what you want and what your guests will like.
• Make simple changes or "meet in the middle" decisions to have the best of both worlds, and possibly avoid problems with other demanding guests.
• Don't forget to vote today!
