Do
you need a wedding doctor?
Some real-life examples from my experience
"I
grew up Catholic and my husband grew up Jewish and we are having a
lot of conflicts between our families' expectations. We can't agree
on a place to hold the ceremony, much less who would
officiate."
"My
mother is deceased and I don't have any sisters or other female
relatives that I feel close to. I need someone to be my mom through
all this."
"My
family is from the east coast and his family is from the midwest. So
we want to get married somewhere in between but can't decide where,
plus, who will set everything up since we won't be there until the
wedding week?"
"My
mother (or mother-in-law) and I do not see eye to eye on anything
about this wedding. We need a go-between to help mediate, otherwise
this is going to be the wedding from hell."
"Our
daughter is marrying into a family that is rather wealthy, and I am
not sure how to do everything properly. Also, my husband and I don't
have a lot of money to spend on this, and I need help making it as
elegant as I can on a limited budget."
"We
have a huge family and lots of friends so this is turning into an
enormous undertaking. I am feeling so overwhelmed that I am in
tears. I need help with everything!"
"My
fiance and I are going to be paying for our wedding ourselves, and
we are on a very tight budget. We need help creating a meaningful,
yet fun, event on a tight budget."
"Both
of our parents are divorced and remarried, and I am not sure who
walks down the aisle first, who sits where, etc."
"I
really want to enjoy the wedding and the reception, but there is so
much to do that day that I don't know how I can manage it all. I'd
hate to miss spending time with all the family and friends who have
come so far to join us."
"The
church has a wedding director but I'm not that crazy about her. I'm
not sure she is going to do what I want."
"We
want to do something different with the ceremony. We are just not
sure how to do it."
