How should I manage my wedding?


So, it has come to a stage whereby I have to go through the entire wedding banquet. I have more of less accepted the fact that I cannot run away from that. The only thing now is that I want the entire night to proceed without any hiccups. And I do not want to see certain people at the dinner. Deep down, I think I still carry some of the burden of the past. I should learn to let go. Maybe I can still invite certain people but I need not be so friendly to them. Or I can just ignore them.

Dear Johanna, remember that there are factors which you can influence and factors which you cannot. YOu can influence the people whom you want to invite to your wedding. You can talk yourself into not being affected by the emotions of the people around you and go through everything. You can learn to put your trust in a few people and get their assistance like what Clarissa said.

Dear Lord

I know it is not right to harbour feelings of dislike or hatred. BUt somehow, I do dislike certain people in my family and I do dislike their behavior. Lord, teach me to be forgiving, teach me to accept things which I cannot change. Lord, teach me to be kind.

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Remember it is your day! Don't let anyone else ruin it. I didn't stand up to some members of my family and I can't look at my wedding pictures without bad memories of the things that were done and said. My brother in law and his girlfriend got into a fight right over the heads of their children and she did many other things that make me want to hide all of the pictures. You can invite everyone to the wedding but only certain close people to the reception afterwards to celebrate with you! I wish I had done that.
