wedding planning quiz
How do i tell her????????????
I am the maid of honor at my cousins wedding and my cousin and i are really close because we grew up together and she is like a sister to me but recently since she is in Virginia studying at UVA college taking 18 credits trying to graduate early its her third year she has put a lot of the planning on me.I am in my first year of college and taking 13 credits and struggling because of trying to help her out with planning , go to school, and working for my moms small company . I took three test last week and was unprepared for two of them and may have failed because of this. I also missed my first two quizes in math class and am falling behind in my english/writing class and am feeling very overwhelmed.I dont want to hurt he feeling but helping her plan a wedding for 215 people is getting to me?
tried telling her more than once but she will cry and tell me how stressed out she is and how she cant do it without me.
Honey, when did you become the Wedding Planner?
Take a deep breath and step back a moment. Look at what you have to do in a day. How much time do you have after your responsibilities have been met?
Take a look at what she is telling you You Need to do. If you can take care of request A, then tell her that. Also say, “But, hon, theres no way I can get to request B and request C this week, ok?”
When she cries just tell her you’ll get request A taken care of. The end. Repeat.
Make a list of everyone who can help her put the wedding together. If her mom can take care of the caterer, and your mom takes care of the flowers, and Aunt Jane books the church, and Uncle Joe books the reception hall then you can go about your business. Send the list to her. It is her wedding. Have her contact the folks and ask for help. Most people love a wedding and are pretty honored to be asked for help.
Get some rest, catch up on your classes, and make the time off for the wedding stress-free. Speak to her kindly and respectfully. She may want to move the Wedding Date to a more manageable time. See what you can do.
