Too many questions

I think the people who love weddings are the ones who aren't planning it. Seems to be the consensus that when you are actually planning a wedding it becomes stressful and a pain. I'm enjoying some parts of wedding planning, but not as much as I thought I would. It's like you take twice as long to plan an event than you would a typical event.  It's just because people have this fantasy type of idea that your wedding needs to be perfect.  When you're planning, I think you realize that all the fluff and stuff is pretty stupid.  Not to be harsh, but I'm guessing that people tend to make bad choices about marriage or tend to neglect their future marriage because they get so caught up in the hair and veil and color scheme. PLEASEEE... can we get some common sense in here?  What's the use of planning so much and stressing if it just makes you more uptight and anxious and unfocused about your wedding?  

HMMMM... I think the divorce rate is about 50% right now so if we're really realistic, you may be planning a wedding for a marriage that won't even last.  Some may say that's pessimistic and I admit, it could be, but in my opinion, most people are overly optomistic about relationship. When they start dating someone they say, he's the one or she's the one and they have no idea the number of issues that are between them and a great relationship.  

Part of me may be a little bitter because well, I have no time to enjoy planning my wedding. I was thinking of what the color scheme of my wedding would be, Kevin and my wedding, but unfortunately, it was in the middle of my studying. So while I was at the library, I got a little distracted and decided to find wedding books to think of the color and type of flowers I wanted for my wedding. CRAZINESS!! Well, here's to the next few months. I'm just letting go of the perfect wedding day and instead what I'm going for is a fun enjoyable day, with lots of celebration with fam and friends.
