So this year happens to be the year of the bride.....well at least in my little word I have two different friends that are getting married this year besides me. And I really like it one because you get to plan with your friends and two you get to learn from their mistakes...hehehehe! Which just this last weekend I learned a few different things...1.) Be a gracious bride...people don't HAVE to get you a gift and if and when they do, even if its not something you want or like....BE THANKFUL!!! When you aren't, you only look like a bridezilla not to mention a rude and mean person even if your not.....2.) My friend had a gift card shower which I thought was cool...till I got there. I had forgotten that half of the fun is watching the gifts being opened...Or even better being the one that gets to open them...So she had ONE gift to open and the rest were just gift cards... I mean to each is own but it made me decide that I wanted to register somewhere, so that when I do have a shower it will be fun to open the gifts.:) 3.) Try not to piss off everyone that is trying to help you....ie if you have planned your bridals 3 different times and they have been cancelled 3 different times because of weather. Don't get upset if everyone hasn't marked off all of their days to help you...if you need more ways not to piss people off reread #1. I'm starting to get super excited for my wedding and for my friends weddings also...I have started getting a few things planned like flowers and my cake....SO EXCITED to see both of them. And this month on the 15th Chris and I are going to taste some cakes also see what we like and what we want our cake to taste like!
I say go for it with presents! Its one time in your life you can/should expect them. Even if you already live together. People will figure out what to get you!
