WEDDING OR MARRIAGE: WHICH DO YOU WANT?

WEDDING OR MARRIAGE: WHICH DO YOU WANT?

So Sexy Fashion review was inspired by the media extravaganza surrounding Kim Kardashian…

Some girls may be so carried away planning their “dream fairy tale wedding” and FORGET preparing for a marriage.

Instead of focusing on “husband to be” like how they are going to mesh lives, communicate, and stabilize a foundation that will last long after THE one day, they focused on a dream, a fairytale and on their selves. 

Leaving your future husband out of a day that is supposed to be special to both of you and taking a “my way or no way” attitude doesn’t bode well for the stability of the marriage they are entering into. Many women, and even some men, fall into this same trap and end up confusing the hoopla of a wedding with the actual reality of a marriage. 

They get so focused on making this childhood dream come true that they forget they aren’t children anymore and that the dreams they had about weddings as little kids, aren’t the same as the realities of marriage as adults.

Marriage is more than fancy cakes, gorgeous gowns and RSVPs. It is hard work, and it’s usually only after the party ends that most people realize exactly what they’ve gotten themselves into. There are no more seating charts and menus to keep you from facing the situation before you and when some couples realize the hard work ahead and it sinks in that planning the wedding wasn’t the hard part, they can’t cut it.

While they were planning ceremony décor, they forgot to plan how they were going to mesh lives. While they were writing vows, they forgot they have to figure out how to express feelings and communicate without prepared scripts.

People get so caught up in preparing for the day that they forget to prepare for the lifetime. 

Taking the time to remember that the wedding is only the start of the marriage and focusing on building a solid foundation, instead of a memorable event, just might ensure that the party and the love will never end. x
