By Robin Levine


Planning your wedding together can be an extremely gratifying experience however it can likewise be really discouraging if the 2 of you do not have similar views. As far as wedding planning is worried, some guys just do not care that much about the planning. This is also okay, no matter how interested or disinterested he is in the planning, this method will get you to the wedding feeling closer than ever.

Sit down with your fiance and make some flashcards, containing all the facets of the wedding you can think of. Do not limit yourself to the decorations and menu but include such things as; who will give the speeches, who will be sitting at the bridal table, how the wedding celebration will unfold, exactly what sort of music will be played and so on.

Get hold of a colored marker and number the flashcards the way he has set them out. Get him to jot down a list, copying the order he has set out. Now shuffle the cards and make your own priority listing by numbering the cards first and then jotting down a list.

This whole procedure can be exceptionally useful, because it has the twofold advantage of:. (a)giving you a shared list of things to do but also (b)enables you to understand if any "heavy negotiation" will take place. For example, the wedding venue turns out to be among the biggest concerns for both of you, then you understand that you will need to negotiate rather a bit. But, if for you wonderful wedding favours are among the top 5 things on your list, and for him they are among the bottom of his listing, then you understand that no disagreement will happen because it will not be tough for him to settle on anything you have actually picked.

The next thing to do is to separately gather info, pics and [quotes on all the aspects of the listing, and to write down your selections for things which do not include suppliers. For instance, each of you will write down their own inclinations on seating plans, speeches, type of ceremony etc. Pin all your remarks and pictures onto a large polystyrene or cork board. Give yourselves a target date, with the contract that elements of the wedding not filled in by the due date will be chosen by the other partner.|The next thing to do is to individually collect info, pictures and quotes on all the elements of the list, and to write down your selections for things which do not involve suppliers. Give yourselves a due date, with the agreement that aspects of the wedding not filled in by the due date will be decided on by the other partner.

On the set date show each other your boards. You will be able to see at a glimpse how distant or how close your preferences are. If they are close you can just take out the flash cards again and pin them to the picture or information you have picked together. If they are far-off you will need to discuss it. Begin with the cards that are a high priority for both of you. Set them out and count them. You have to be willing to quit on a minimum of half of them and so should your partner. That way you will reach a compromise without ever needing to fight or create tension.

From here on all you have to do is take care of making the orders and cuddling with each other till the wedding!
