I woke up this morning with the worst sunglasses tan of my life. Luckily the wedding isn’t today, I know the bride would be far from impressed.
A day spent on the ocean will do that to you in the heat of the summer, but man, what a killer day. It is days like yesterday that over the past 9 months have kept my bride-to-be and myself grounded as much as possible.
You need it, you need a break, you need to remember you’re still a couple and it isn’t all about wedding planning 24/7. While it is easy to get caught up in the entire decision making, cake tasting, and back aching… it is crucial to take a step back, crack open a beer, sit back and relax.
So as I sit in the office with the worst sun tan of the summer I am humbled by the amazing days we’ve had along the engagement journey of “‘bliss”, great days of wedding planning and learning things about each other along the way.
At the end of the day wedding planning is crucial, but nothing should ever get in the way of you kicking back with a beer on a summer’s day and working on an epic racoon-esque tan like no other.
19 days.
