There’s a lot of pressure to enjoy the wedding planning process, despite the overwhelming reality many brides face.

Everyone is telling you to enjoy it, but the experience may not always feel enjoyable or like the best time of your life. Those people who say "enjoy it" are often reflecting on their own experience and wishing they had fully embraced the complexity and sacredness of the journey.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

The disconnect between expectation and reality in planning your wedding

Feeling alone on your wedding journey
