I Want to Be Happy Throughout the Wedding Preparation ♡

To all the brides! Are you enjoying the wedding preparations?

If you can proudly say, “Yes, it’s fun!” then you’re doing great!＊

But some of you might be thinking, “Hmm, I’m not so sure…”

Indeed, wedding preparations bring up many issues related to finances, relationships, and balancing with work;

a multitude of problems you may face for the very first time in your life...!

(You probably see posts about brides’ worries and troubles online or on social media every day.)

But!

If you keep focusing on all of those anxious thoughts, it’s only natural to feel down,

and what should be a happy time of wedding preparation can unintentionally turn into a tough and burdensome period.

So if you’re harboring even a little bit of negative or pessimistic feelings toward wedding preparations,

try to change that mindset to a more positive perspective!!!♡

I hope it leads to discoveries like “I can think this way too!” and “I’ll keep this in mind!”＊
