The perfect dress, shoes, hair, makeup, bridesmaids, ring, venue, food, decor, and of course the perfect man, is everything a girl can dream of. Girls begin to plan their wedding at the age of 5, and as we grow up we just keep fantasizing about the most perfect day until it gets here. Personally I can not stop thinking about my dream wedding because I know I am with the man I want to marry, and I constantly bug him about it. Now girls if you're like me, here are a few thoughts I have when I attend weddings.

1. The ceremony

Now if you're from a religious family, like i am, the ceremony is the most important part of a wedding because thats when you commit yourself to your partner for the rest of your life and it has to be perfect. When I sit through a wedding ceremony I think about the entire arrangement, how the alter will look, who the officiating the wedding, and where my bridesmaids will stand. I dream about who will be my maid of honor and my bridesmaids, and of course what would I say in my vows to show how much I love my future husband. This part literally has to be a fairytale wedding, because this is when you express and show the world how perfect the bride and groom are meant for each other.

2. The dress

THE DRESS IS EVERYTHING! IF A BRIDE DOES NOT FEEL LIKE A PRINCESS/QUEEN IN THE DRESS THEN DO NOT BUY SAID DRESS. THE DRESS IS WHAT BRINGS EVERYTHING TOGETHER, IT MAKES A BRIDE A BRIDE. THE DRESS HAS NO LIMIT, HAPPINESS HAS NO LIMIT. THE LIMIT DOES NOT EXISIT ON A BRIDE'S DREAM DRESS.

3. The reception

ITS OFFICIAL YOU ARE NOW MARRIED TO SOMEONE, NOW IT'S TIME TO PARTY.You have to have the perfect fairy tale wedding ceremony, so now have the perfect fair tale wedding reception. The entrance has to be grand because its the first time the world will see the husband and wife. Back to picking bridesmaids, you have to pick them carefully because who knows who will embarrass you in their toast. Now my husband can pick his groomsman but obviously i would have to approve because IT'S MY DAY. Besides the people in the wedding, you have to thing about the perfect food, decorations, dinner entertainment and party music. It would magical if Jason Mraz just came to my wedding and sing "Lucky." If only....

4. The perfect guy

Yes the dress is everything, but who cares if you found the most perfect dress in the world,if you don't have the perfect guy to get married to. Finding the perfect guy is hard. Now ladies, you will date jerks, you will hate yourself for dating them. You have to pick through a punch of thorns until you find the perfect guy. What I do on a first date with someone is picture marrying them. Yes, I know its a bit crazy, but If i can't see myself marrying them in the future then whats the point of continuing on the relationship. I know I have found the perfect guy, he always tells me that I'm crazy for wanting to marry him after dating for 6 months, but when you know you've found the one, why wait? Now that doesn't mean to get married right away, but it doesn't hurt to act like a married couple like I do with my boyfriend for a couple years, just to make sure you found the perfect guy. Don't be afraid to follow your heart ladies! Never settle and keep searching for the perfect one, and once you do, never let him go.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
