Summary of Conscious Bride's Wedding Planner

This book includes beautiful art, photographs, checklists, worksheets, a 12-month calendar, a section for vendor contact information, and more. Sections cover setting a realistic budget, choosing a wedding location, creating a guest list, finding the right dress, ceremony ideas, and choosing food, flowers, and music. Paul also gives the reader tools for staying in sync with their mate throughout the planning while learning how to compromise. The planner also serves as a keepsake journal that can be referred to throughout the wedding experience.

Dozens of wedding planning guides address the external issues of organizing the perfect wedding. This book also focuses on the inner thoughts and feelings of the bride and groom. Use it to understand how unconscious feelings and unrealistic expectations can tarnish this important event in your life. Deal with your fears and emotions at the same time you plan the actual event. Avoid the detail-mania that can lead to hurt feelings and long-lasting alienation from friends and loved ones. Learn why excessive anxiety over a specific task may be masking an emotional issue that needs resolution. Deal constructively with family-blending, post-bridal blues, and the reality of the first year of marriage.

This book is designed to be both a source of inspiration and a practical tool. It guides you through the minefield of the prenuptial subconscious with an engaging series of exercises. Find solutions to your nagging doubts by creating personal rituals, holding structured conversations with yourself, and keeping a written journal of your experiences. When you've clarified your expectations for yourself, share them with your spouse-to-be and everyone else touched by your wedding.

Paul encourages couples, particularly brides, to get beyond the million-dollar wedding photos presented in magazines and, instead, envision a ceremony, location, and style that truly reflects the core beliefs of the bride and groom and prepares them for the journey ahead.
