Wedding Planning: Only For The Engaged?

Wedding planning shouldn't only be for the girls that are engaged to be married.

Wedding Planning: Only For The Engaged?
Kristin Bass

It's every girls dream to have the perfect wedding with the perfect guy and live happily ever after, or at least as close to it as possible.

I am currently single, and have no intentions or interest in getting married in the near future. It's something that I feel that I am not ready for yet, as I'm still trying to grow to become the best me that I can possibly be. I want to be the best me that I can be before I think about getting married to somebody. I do believe that there is a possibility that a significant other may be able to help me grow some before getting married, but I believe a lot of the growing that I need to do needs to be personal.

Though I feel like I am not ready for marriage, I have thought so much about my wedding and about my future Husband. No, I don't know who my future husband is yet, but I still think about what kind of a wife I want to be for him. I think about what kind of a wife God wants me to be for my future husband. I think about how strong our relationship with each other will be and how strong our relationship with God will be, both as a combined relationship and individual relationships with God will be.

I pray every day for my future husband and for my future relationship. I pray that God is with my future husband and is helping him to become an amazing guy, is becoming the best that he can be, and that God is helping him to become husband material.

Along with thinking and praying about my future husband and about my marriage, I think about my dreams for the wedding itself. I know that I'm going to want to get my future husbands input on some of the details, but I love trying to come up with some of the details on how I went my wedding to turn out. I get excited all the time about my wedding.

I think it's good for a girl to think about her wedding at any age, even if she is still single or in a relationship that she doesn't think will last forever. It gives them a sense of hope of the future.

I also believe that even if a girl starts thinking about her wedding beforehand and starts getting a sense of hope for her wedding, I believe that the older a girl is before she starts seriously planning a wedding, the better the wedding will be, and the closer she will be with God. The older a girl is before she starts planning her wedding, the more realistic the wedding will turn out to be. The older a girl is before she starts planning wedding in a serious sense, it gives that girl a better sense of reality, a better sense of what a wedding should really be like.

When I was a little girl, I wanted a princess theme wedding based on all of the Disney Princesses. Now that I'm older, I want to feel like a princess at my wedding, but I don't necessarily want a Disney Princess wedding anymore. I started somewhere with my dream though, and I have evolved it the further I get in life and the more mature I am

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
