Navigating the Holidays When You’re Planning a Wedding
Being engaged around the holidays can feel a bit like a Hallmark movie. You have your matching PJs. You’re drinking hot cocoa out of your “just engaged” mugs. And maybe you’re snuggled under a cozy blanket gazing at your first tree together.
But, depending on your family, it can also be a really stressful time and bring about some difficult situations.
In order to help you navigate the holidays in a way that feels respectful, manageable, and perhaps even joyful, here are my best tips.
Five Steps To Start Planning Your Wedding
Once you’ve told everyone who matters, whether it’s just a phone call to Dad or posting the ultimate ring selfie… it’s time to take a deep breath and dip your toe into the planning waters.
That said, please don’t feel like you have to “jump in” right away. Everyone has their own pace of planning their wedding. Enjoy the excitement and new-ness of JUST being engaged.
