Groom, Mike, married Eden, gives a fresh piece of advice for grooms, “[wear a] white under-armor shirt instead of a regular cotton one = not as worried about sweating through your clothing while dancing.”
Additional tip from Jewish wedding expert, Aliyah: bring a spare white button down in case you sweat through a first.
“Instead of allowing the planning stage of the wedding to consume your relationship, use it to enhance it.”
Zahava, married Josh June 2014, had this to share:
“It seems like your wedding is the most important thing in the world, and it is a big deal, but the wedding is only happening because you love each other and have decided to spend your lives together – so it’s really silly to let it come between you. Details like seating arrangements and song choices may seem like huge issues right now, but when the wedding is over and the guests have gone home, you won’t be thinking about table numbers centerpieces – You’ll be slowly realizing that today was just the first of many, in which the nature of your relationship with the other person is a defining factor.
“turn it into an opportunity to train yourselves in the art of patient and efficient communication.”
Instead of allowing the planning stage of the wedding to consume your relationship, use it to enhance it. Take the task of choosing a venue or a band or a photographer and turn it into an opportunity to train yourselves in the art of patient and efficient communication. Take your differences in opinion and use them as a chance to compromise, to sacrifice for the other person. Take every decision and challenge that comes your way and use it to learn something about the person you love, to understand his or her limits and sensitivities, to adapt yourself to a new life in which you have to think, act and live for two. Other than that, just have fun ;)”
