I haven't really given much thought about wedding planning since I got engaged, since I had to deal with my Finals first and other deadlines. But now that school is over, I found some down time to check online for different wedding options here and in Manila.
It's crazy how expensive weddings can be, so I'm already beginning to monitor my unneeded expenses more closely now. I used to tell people jokingly that I work for shoes and travel. I guess now, I'd have to work for the wedding - and the marriage that comes after that.
Isn't it a little overwhelming how people go through the same stages in life like clockwork? And that priorities change dramatically upon each event? Career plans aside, you find a partner, get engaged, get married, get a house, have a kid, have another kid, raise kids well, put them to good schools, raise them more, stay married ... retire. That process is pretty simplistic, but there are plenty of details in between that people have to overcome - or not. Some people go through all the stages of the whole process, some rearrange the stages, some just don't go through it. Fact of life.
Enough ponderment.
I just hope that I don't become one of those bridezilla freaks who go crazy planning a wedding. There's just one thing I'd want to be impractical with in planning this: the honeymoon! (Did somebody mention Mykonos?)
