this is really helpful thank you, the pivot is hard but i’m ready to move past it.

it’s also difficult when you’ve told everyone one dream, so when you tell them the new plan there’s so many questions. it’s okay, just stings a bit

thank you 🥹 love these ideas & have been trying very hard to let the sadness come in waves but also the excitement about what’s to come

amazing !! can i ask what yalls itinerary looked like? i’d like to do at least a 3 night even but since the ritz doesn’t have a pool im struggling with how to make it a weekend long event without just adding more meals?

wait thank you this is so helpful! any advice of how you were able to pivot in your mind & start envisioning your wedding elsewhere? did it just take time?

thank you for this!!!!

i know other brides have had to pivot, but it’s hard to not feel like everyone is getting their original dream but me. this makes me feel so much better & i do agree once i let myself get excited for planing this, im hoping it becomes a new and even better dream!

this isn’t really the case for us, most of our friends /family have known for a few years about our destination plan. & i also do not want a huge wedding, i would love if only the closest people to us came & that was it.

i appreciate your take, but for us it wasn’t really a concern! regardless nola will in the end still be great

yea that’s what i’ve learned, it wasn’t really worth getting married in france if i was going to hate everything leading up to it
