The moment you get engaged is like being on cloud nine. Fun parties in your honour, engagement shoots, and an excuse to go on an amazing holiday after it’s all done. But… there can be an unexpected downside. Planning your wedding can be a good indicator for marriage. Here are a few common wedding arguments you may have and how to avoid them.
Wedding Arguments About….
Money
You want to spend money on the dress and ring but he wants to spend it all on entertainment for the day and the honeymoon. Try to compromise on this one. Is the dress something you both can enjoy or will you both get something out of the entertainment/honeymoon?
Friends
Did you fiancé pick that old college buddy that you can’t stand? Try to be supportive here. Maybe they have a strong connection; why not ask your brother or more reasonable men to be groomsmen also?
The Past
Eeeek. Things can always get awkward when either person is still friends with their ex. Opportunities for jealousy and insecurities can arise easily in these situations. It can be a rough one. Talk to your partner and address your concerns. Maybe there’s an opportunity to get to know the ex, after all, you’ve already won this battle!
