Re: What have you learned about yourself in the wedding planning process?
that i am totally indecisive 
all the things that i thought i wanted - i keep changing my mind about.....dress styles, veil styles, hair styles, jewelry, flowers, it seems like EVERYTHING that i would have thought i wanted before being engaged is different now......
and i can't believe some of things i've said about money.....like, "its only another $1,000.00"
i think im losing it!
Oh and i realized just how great FH is! He is AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING

Re: What have you learned about yourself in the wedding planning process?
that I don't really rely on other people's opinions to make decisions and that for the most part, simple and timeless things are always better. I've also learned that FH is really amazing and supportive of everything I've wanted to do for the wedding and willing to help in whatever way possible.
I've also learned that having a long island wedding is really expensive!!!!!!!

Totally agree on not relying on what other people think. I learned just to ignore that and go on. I also learned that I am more patient than I thought when it came to doing projects or waiting for things to come. Usually I am pushy and want it done fast.

Me too. I know exactly what I want and don't ask for opinons. That's why I like to do all my wedding shopping alone or with Mom.

Isn't it amazing!?!?! i never thought I would say that either. I really have to examine my financial maturity, priorities, and will-power!
I did learn a little about negotiating, though.

Re: What have you learned about yourself in the wedding planning process?
I've learned that I actually love planning my wedding. Before we got engaged, the thought of planning a wedding was so overwhelming, I figured I'd just hire a planner and event designer and call it a day. But once we got engaged, I became intrigued with the idea.. little by little, I would do something wedding related..like think about what kind of style I wanted, venue...then I looked at a venue and was head over heels with planning the wedding ever since!
Also I found that I don't need to solicite opinions from family and friends.. with the exception of FH. I know what I want and I just take it from there.

I have learned that I can let something I really enjoy consume my life.
