As you ease into your dress and prepare your make up, the day begins to materialize from dreams to reality....then it RAINS...
How dare it rain on my special day, you think out loud. Soon, it starts to rain even harder...the forecast calls for wind and rain all day. Some people say it's good luck if it rains on your wedding day. You say "bull ?$&#!". So, what do you do? Well, you finish your mascara, and climb into your magical chariot to your wedding. Or your limousine, if you've hired one. The limo driver looks like James bond, and the bridesmaids ogle over him as the champagne is poured by your maid of honor for the girls to enjoy before the trip down the aisle.
BANG!....the limo gets a flat tire. Your champagne spills all over the FRONT of your gown....
What next?
The cake falls off the table? The DJ is late? The florist delivers the wrong flowers. Cousin Vinnie shows up in khakis and a baseball hat....What next?!?!
Don't panic, and remember: it's your wedding day...Relax and enjoy it...NO MATTER WHAT.
Golden rule # 1 : Do not micro manage your wedding into the ground...Take it in stride and just enjoy. There will be things that are beyond your control. But for the most part, your vendors will handle everything for you.
Golden rule # 2: Let the evening fall into place... and quit looking at your watch!
Golden rule # 3: If something does go wrong, have your friends and family deal with it accordingly. Or let your vendors handle it. If it's something like bad weather, traffic, or something that cannot be "Dealt with"...Don't sweat it out. A good word of advice: Kick off your shoes and dance in the rain, it would make for some fun photos.
Most importantly, enjoy your special celebration, and relax. if you have fun, so will everyone else!
Until next time,
Steve Lebo
