Just a lesson to myself.To not talk about the details about my wedding anymore.Storytime- I was excited that i ordered the linen napkins. I was about to tell someone about them and how i got a discount from Weddingwire, but they interrupted me and said."You get what you paid for! Those are going to scratch people's face off! Nice fabric is 200$ a pop! Not that cheap price"
I got mine for 50.89..........

Now comes the doubting myself.

Then i went home and 3 other people made it a point to tell me I was being ready too early.



Mind you it is almost 2020. Thats the year we PREP for our 2021 wedding. Not much time left so HUSH.

The next day I got excited because my fiancee got an engraved wedding cake cutting set.
Then i got this response
"Your going to spend yourselves into oblivion, buying things you dont need"
Ok fine then ill cut the cake with my high heel! Is that cheap enough for you?!?!?!?!!?!?!?
So i decided to keep my mouth shut about the wedding details and to keep the excitement to myself and my journal.

    You have learned a majorly important thing here! It is one thing when people give helpful assistance, letting you know things you are not aware of. For example, when we had just decided something, someone let us know something we planned was illegal in the state where we were marrying, though common near us. So we had to go about things differently. But my first wedding I quickly learned most of what other people say boils down to, I would not do that because I prefer something else. Subjective preferences, but always made to sound like you are doing something terribly wrong. Not that mostly you prefer something at least equally as good as what they suggest, and since it is your wedding, it should be your choice. This wedding we talked to far fewer people. And I came to love my FMIL, whom I had only met 3 times in the 8 months between our meeting each other, and getting engaged. To any of her very opinionated family, and worse, their spouses, when they would start in with telling you you had to do this or that, she would just interrupt them. Excuse me, but whose wedding is this? She would ask. Yes, it is J and T's wedding. And they are doing a fine job planning it without help from you. And she would give them her look, and no matter who it was, nothing more was said. Love that woman.
