(There’s something about planning a wedding that kinda sorta really manages to take up all my brain space. So sorry for this long sabbatical.)

Just wanted to share what seems like an interesting documentary, albeit controversial for the traditional girl that I am. What do you think folks? Could you find a “happily ever after” without marriage? Do you need to be the “best version of yourself” before you get married? What do you think about being single in your 30s? Did you get married because it’s what society expected of you at a certain age?

Seeking Happily Ever After

Am I the ONLY girl out there who hasn’t been planning this event since I was six and in pigtails?

Yikes.

I’m upset at how businesses and venues and vendors PREY on brides-to-be.

At the mere mention of “wedding” people bump up their prices.

All of a sudden the “event” is no longer just and “event.”

It’s a ‘freakin wedding and now I can’t say “I do” for less than 2 grand at most locales.

Okaaay.

I’m venting.

So that is the reason for my absence here.

Because I never knew how stressful and expensive it is to plan a wedding

That’s all I’ve been doing.

Okay.

I lied.

I wrote a bunch of freelance dating articles too. You can check some of them out here:

And now what becomes of bitter bride-to-be?

I’m going to find a park… and grab a portable generator… and have my wedding under the stars:)
