Sometimes, planning a wedding feels an awful lot like what I’d imagine it to feel like to walk through a field with landmines between the starting and ending point of a shooting range.  All the while, I’m hoping to make it to the other side of the field without exploding or being hit with stray bullets.

If I misstep, things could end in a terrible mess.

If I’m not watching carefully while I step, something else will come out of no where and things will get messy for a long long time.

For those of you just starting this endeavor: beware.  Wedding planning is a chance to offend others without fail.
