How To Be A Good Friend While She Is Planning For A Wedding
Planning a wedding can be one of the most stressful times of a person’s life. Just keep that in mind whenever you talk to the bride. She’s guaranteed to be a nervous wreck, and will most likely be much more emotional than normal. Just remember that this is going to be one of the most unique and interesting parts of her life.
Questioning your own decision to get married can actually be a very common occurrence. After all, the rest of your life can be an overwhelming thought. Make sure you are understanding, but encouraging that he makes her happy and that she really does want to spend the rest of her life with him. Support during this crucial time can make all the difference in the world regarding your friendship and can bring both of you closer together.
Help with the planning. Volunteer your time to help with whatever she needs. Go with her to pick up flowers; help pick out the cake; go with her to pick out her dress. It is likely that her family will not have a schedule that allows them to go shopping for every little thing in the wedding planning process, so make sure she doesn’t have to do shopping by herself.
Support all her decisions. She will probably make some decisions that you will disagree with. That’s okay. Tell her how great her decisions are and how beautify a ceremony she will have.
Give advice if you’ve had a wedding before, but don’t be pushy. Especially remember to recommend businesses that made your wedding unbelievable. You can recommend little steps to make her life easier that you figured out during your own wedding planning process.
Smile a lot, get excited about what she picks, and stay optimistic and your friendship will become closer than ever.
