Well, now that Kati and Nate's wedding is fast approaching, I have to start thinking very seriously about planning my own. Once we hit their wedding (in two weeks!) I will have just under five months until my own.
The most daunting task for me is the music. I know, you would think that after years of singing at other people's weddings and majoring in music, I'd have this piece down pat. It's actually the opposite! I have so many very strong opinions about what I don't want that it sort of clouds what I do want. We have joked about a few first dance songs, ranging from "The Humpty Dance" to "Freebird". Seriously, would you just die at a wedding if you saw the happy couple stand up and then heard the first strains of "Freebird" (ie. knowing you now had nine minutes and six seconds to watch them sway).
I think I am going to have to start making a list... at least jotting down some songs that might fit into various spots of the ceremony and reception. I really do think this is going to be the hardest part of all of the wedding planning for me!
Or I could just go with my gut and stick with "Freebird"...
