I was recently inspired by a client of mine to write this
blog. She was such a gracious reminder
of how important parents can be to a wedding.
The parents of both the bride and groom are such an integral part of not
only the wedding, but also the couple’s life together after the big day. When you come across a mother or father who
selflessly devote time, emotional and financial support to both the event and
the children’s future-- it is truly inspiring.
This mother made sure that her daughter and future son-in-law were
represented in every aspect of the wedding while also integrating such amazing
personal touches-- there is no way this day will be soon forgotten! The bride and groom were so thankful! I forged a friendship with her that gave new
breath to my job. We are often so
concerned with the dress, flowers, which vendors will be the best, etc., that
we don’t have time to sit back and truly learn about the family and what is
involved on their end. I got that
opportunity and am truly thankful for it.
I also had the pleasure of planning a fabulous surprise
bridal shower for an upcoming bride. The
family and their interactions were so amazing; it just became further
confirmation of why I needed to write this blog. Weddings can be very stressful on the family
dynamics for many reasons and all too often we focus on the negative side of
that. It can also be a wonderful bonding
experience where the bride and groom should thank their parents for their
tireless support even before the big day!
