Yes it is nearly time to confirm the date!
In the very near future (although I do not wish to say exactly when for safety reasons!) I will be journeying over to Jersey to view/ review 7 wedding venues and then book my wedding!
This is of course very exciting and it means things will finally start rolling, which after over 2 years of engagement feels well over due.
But it also makes it seem very real, which as well as being wonderful...is a little bit scary. After all, a wedding might just be a fancy party, but it is a one off event. Granted it is less one off than my eighteenth birthday party, as I can always renew my vows or hold a second wedding with the same husband. However, I feel much more pressure in booking and arranging my wedding than I ever had over a birthday.
I suppose this is because a birthday party does not have the same expectations as a wedding. There are many more set traditions and expectations surrounding a wedding, and people will be looking out for them. If you are going to alter or break any of these traditions then it can feel like a very big decision. This is ridiculous, and I can recognise that. Yet still I feel like I'm taking my future in my hands when I go to Jersey and hand over the deposit.
I shall let you know how it goes, and what my final descision is. After which you can expect a lot more activity on this blog, as my wedding begins to dominate my life.
