I do hope that young couples will not only prepare themselves for the wedding but for the long term day in and day out of marriage.

We really tried to cut down on the paper!<br /><br />And I feel you about the extra "details"..while I do have a "wedding blog", you'll notice most of my posts do NOT go into details because um, I'm lazy and we don't HAVE many little details (there are 3-4 small details and that's IT). <br /><br />However, I just wanted to point out that while we are having a pretty fancy wedding, it's not really FOR us. It's more for our families. They wanted it, are paying for a lot of it, so we are happily planning an expensive wedding. If it had been up to us alone, we wouldn't be having this wedding--we would have gone to Hawaii and had a super small wedding. I also have what many people consider a "large engagement ring" that my fiance could afford and was proud to give me. We hold a lot of sentimental value in my "big" diamond, just like people who have smaller rings. I wanted a specific size ring, we could afford it with no problem, so why not? It doesn't make us superficial or value marriage any less. <br /><br />Just be careful not to overgeneralize things too much :) Everyone has different situations, and you can't always view what's going on from the outside :)<br /><br />P.S. I don't blog about "marriage" and the transition into a "wife" because those are things my fiance and I choose to keep between us, not us and the blog world.Laura @ Wine and Cheese, Pleasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212867509139342238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6894899490428676091.post-24018722307929233762010-11-23T23:31:06.330-05:002010-11-23T23:31:06.330-05:00In my culture you are supposed to have a simple ba...In my culture you are supposed to have a simple band so that all brides are equal. So I'm very used to seeing this in the people around me and it would feel weird to have anything different. I guess I don't really understand why people would want anything else... my teeny tiny ering is already flashy enough.AEGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06582901575280844866noreply@blogger.com
