Date night

In the thick of wedding planning, it is difficult to focus on what brought you to this moment: your significant other. I know that for me, there were moments when I would inundate Noah with new wedding ideas that popped into my head and quickly email him. A couple of hours later, I would pepper Noah with a photo that I snapped with my cell phone that is wedding worthy. A couple of days later, a new earth shattering suggestion were sent to Noah via text. Who gets excited super pumped about how the light reflects off of one of the chandeliers at our wedding venue and wants to share it with her fiancé? Me! Poor Noah was a doll throughout my wedding-craze-excitement phase.

So.. what am I getting to here? It is ok to enjoy wedding planning. Don’t let the stress overwhelm you! Not every conversation you have with your fiancé has to directly relate to the big day. For the sake of your relationship, keep it cool from time to time. Be willing to take a step back from your wedding planning craze and return to the basics, each other! As a result, we instituted date night, where we simply enjoy the presence of each other, de-stress, go out, have a drink, cook a meal together, watch a movie, take the dog for a walk around the neighborhood. Do anything that will take your mind off of wedding planning.

Last night we enjoyed a date night at a Spanish Wine class. It was fun to get out of my element, be silly, drink wines and learn about different kinds of grapes and most importantly how to differentiate a glass of fruity versus sugary wines.

Date night has been such a blessing!

With that I bid you Adieu,
