Hello, guys and dolls! You're looking great today.

So needless to say, planning a wedding can be a blast. My mother, my soon to be sister-in-law and I nearly died laughing trying to figure out what a dress saleswoman on a foreign website meant by "chiffon tulle, it is one king of fabric." But wedding planning can also be stressful, and that's what this post is about.

People get stressed about so many things in this life. It's easy to get nervous and upset over things that are important, and even more so to get worried about things that are unimportant. In the grand scheme of things, it's not a big deal if you have a white or ivory wedding dress. At the time of choosing, though, it does seem like the most important decision you're going to make. This brings us back to the point: stress. Stress can turn a perfectly nice girl into a Bridezilla, or a perfectly nice boy into a Groomzilla. It's okay to want what you want - that's Human Nature 101. That is no excuse, however, to stop treating the people around you with respect.

You see so many television shows about Bridezillas, almost glorifying them. It is not cute to start screaming at your friends and your family who are trying to help you. These are the people who care about you, and to insult them and be rude to them is going to make them not want to help you anymore. There's also the problem of being harsh towards the people working in the shops or businesses that you're using, i.e. florists, dress salespeople, reception hall owners, planners, caterers, etc.

I do not care if you're stressed out about your wedding. There is absolutely zero excuse to be mean to someone who is trying to help you. Show a little class and be patient in the face of something that is making you want to tear your hair out. Sure, maybe your bridesmaids are being a little too excited and loud while dress shopping. And maybe you feel like your mom is nagging you about your plans for catering. Would you prefer if they just stood back and you had to do every single thing by yourself? Also, please never throw a stiletto at your fiancee when he does not seem to care enough about the wedding plans. He loves you, but it's possible that he doesn't care if the roses are light pink or medium pink. Guys, don't get irritated at your fiancee for talking about the roses. She needs you to hear about them. Try to give some input, even if it's just a little. It will help.

Most of all, show respect. Never insult your loved ones. Avoid getting someone's hair up and try not to get into any arguments. Everyone will look back on the planning of the wedding and think, "Wow, that was an awful part of my life. All the bride did was insult me each time I presented her with a cake sample." Your bridesmaids will think about how horrible you were to them and how hard you cracked the whip on them. The wedding day may end, but your roaring face in their nightmares will last with them for years. Nobody likes a Bridezilla, ladies. Your rude words and insults and screaming will not win you any brownie points. If any friends or guests catch wind of it, chances are the price of your wedding gift will go down by at least ten dollars for every mean thing you said. You will probably end up with a pack of stickers from the Dollar Tree.
