    My husband and I got married in my mother-in-law’s backyard with 15 of our closest family/friends and the entire wedding (including decorations, food, the attire) was less than $1000. Everyone is different but I loved our low-key wedding. Wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thanks for sharing! ✨😂

    I had almost signed up for better health due to another youtuber’s recommendation, but when I did some research it became very clear that they are not good at all. A lot of complaints and just seems shady in general. I can see how they are all over CZcams due to their advertising but I think people are better off saving up and finding actual certified therapists instead. I trust your motives were good, just wanted to share my thoughts. :)

    What you said while having a tea feels so so relatable. I really find it hard these days to be mindful during the day and not only when I plan it (during a meditation for example). Thank you so much for this gentle reminder. I definitely needed it!

    Just got married on March 5 of this year. We went SUPER simple for the ceremony (only about 10 people, in the park, no decorations) and had a SUPER fun pajama jam themed backyard bonfire for the reception with fewer than 40 people in attendance. It was the most magical thing I could have imagined. Everyone was relaxed, enjoying the evening, food was simple but delicious (spiral sammiches, deconstructed charcuterie, no booze, epic cake, candy bar) and best of all, the hubbs and I were relaxed and got to enjoy everything stress free. HIGHLY recommend!

    Thank you for being so real in this video. It takes courage to admit that you don't have everything figured out yet. It's the same for me and I'm starting to be okay with it. But I've just been reminded that it's important to have friends who understand imperfection too, and don't try to push us to improve all the time, when all we actually need is support and acceptance.

    I am here to encourage you to abandon your wedding planning if that is truly calling to you! My husband and I got married in April 2020 at the height of lockdown. We had a wedding and honeymoon planned, but when we realized that we had no idea when the pandemic would actually end, we had a conversation and decided to get married that very next day. It was just the two of us getting married by a notary in her backyard on the beach. Afterwards, we ate creole food in his truck bed and went for a sunset walk on the beach before heading home. Atypical, yes, but I wouldn't change a single thing. Your wedding belongs to you and Dylan and NO ONE else. Make it a positive experience and do what speaks to you!

  • @mackenzie95

    Got married 8 years ago in a chapel, we did the simplest wedding possible, not even a reception, got my dress on ebay, made the invitations and flower arrangements to decorate the chapel, got a cake and refreshments for afterwards and had a great honeymoon. We where super happy and still are with our choice :) today we've been 12 years together going on 13.

    One of the best videos you have made in a long while! Thank you for sharing! Planning a wedding is stressful and so much work so many decisions! Lol but it is worth it. I loved what you said about tears being a release of stress. I honestly have cried souch lately and was beaten myself up for it. Crying is not a weakness it does bring freedom. Blessing to you.

  • @TheFrandall
    @TheFrandall Před 2 lety +4

    My wedding advice is keep it simple. My husband and I have been married for 36 years this summer. We threw together our wedding a month in advance, after we moved to a new town, found a place to rent and started new jobs. We had a hayride out to a ramada, had the ceremony, ate catered food, danced to a hired musician's music, went back to our place and opened gifts. The hayride company acted as the wedding planner and made all the arrangements for food, drinks, the musician. A friend took pix, my mom was the preacher who officiated. It was casual and fun. We've never regretted that it wasn't more formal or expensively done. Our closest friends lived about two hours away which is where we had moved from so most went home and didn't need to have a place to spend the night... Hope you can keep the stress to a minimum and ask for help from friends and family, including Dylan when you need it. People are often eager and pleased to be asked because they don't know what would be helpful to us, even though we may think it's obvious. Type A's like to be in control and have a hard time asking for help and delegating tasks. If you can do that, it'll help take away some stress. Fortunately, you have a very enjoyable sense of humor which you can turn to also. Best wishes. I know you're wedding day will be fun and memorable!

    Tips on latte art: tip the mug your espresso is in when pouring in the steamed milk, and tap the pitcher of milk a few times on the counter to pop big bubbles before pouring. Also this is too much foam for a latte, this is more of cappuccino foamyness! Love the video!

I think it will be a first for them! We are topping the baked eggplant dish with cheese which slightly makes me cringe.. Should you be selfish so you can taste/enjoy everything & stand for your vegan lifestyle or selfless because the food is really for your guests? Would love for you to give tips on finding a vegan friendly caterer :)

      Not sure what she's using but having worked at a roaster my complete favorite has always been authentic Yirgacheffe. "Ethiopian Yirgacheffe has a light to medium body (although they can be full body as well). As is typical with other coffees from this region, it has a distinctively fruity flavor profile and a bright, floral aroma thanks to wet-processed beans cultivated at a high elevation (between 5,800 to 6,600 ft)."

    Tony Robbins said a few words that helped me reframe my mindset on the problems that I found amassing in my life and creeping up over my head; suffocating me.
    “The only people without problems are those in cemeteries.”
    Attributing problems to being a side effect of life, it helped me instead view them as challenges or opportunities, and allowed me to welcome them into my life instead of dreading them.
    I’m sure it doesn’t mean the same to hear it second hand, so I guess it could be distilled into the idea that you’re probably going to become more successful in your years to come, which will bring more responsibilities (read as problems), and more of whatever feelings you allow yourself to attach to them. It would be pretty awesome if the more “problems” you had, meant even more of a positive association with them and it improved your life. Either way you are going to suffer, might as well be better for it in the end.
    (I notice I am using pronouns like “you” and “your”, making it sound like I’m trying to force a certain perspective onto you. In actuality, your video allowed me to travel back to that period of strife in my own life, and I’m narrating my observation of my own past through the lens of your life. I don’t mean to suggest that I know what is best for your life, rather, that I relate to the onus you described for yourself.)
    And having said all of that, the proper thing to do would’ve been to just thumbs up the video and keep it moving, but I’ve already written this out and it’s the most meaningful thing I’ve authored all week (which is tragic in its own right), so it’s less painful for me, at this point, to just post it and risk you hating it.
