When my best friend was getting married, she was rushing around like a crazy thing with lists of people she wanted to invite and jobs which had to be done. There were deadlines for the flowers, the dress, the cake and so on. It was like being in the middle of a whirlwind with her rushing around everywhere.
When preparing your wedding list you have to take extra special care. It can seem easy to include everything you need, but this can be unfair on your guests. Specialist shops have typical lists of things which most couples include.
Or you can compose your own lists. It is often a good idea to put things which you would not ordinarily buy for yourself like luxury quilt sets. Don’t forget, especially with soft furnishings, that you will both have to live in your house together, so don’t try to go for anything too pink and fluffy!
I did not know what to get her. We love her dearly and wanted to get them something they would remember us by. So in the end a group of us got together and decided to get them a nice dining room set. Yes, it is an expensive item, but it was one of the first things she put on her original list and we thought they needed one.
Well, they have to eat and they didn’t have anywhere to sit. I tried telling her they didn’t have a dining room in their apartment, but there is no telling my Mom when she gets like that.
So anyway, the day before the big day came and we were looking at all the presents which had already arrived. Mom’s set was there, and my bracelet and tie pin and a load of other stuff. Most of the big bulky stuff was already there you know. But my friend was looking a bit puzzled like there was something missing.
On your special day, you can sit back and relax (almost!) if you have planned well and everything is as it should be. If you have done your job well, you should have the right number of presents of the sort you like, and only one quilt set!
