There’s a specific kind of weight that comes with being a bride in the wedding industry. When you’re surrounded by weddings for a living, people assume you’ll know it all. That your day will be effortless. That nothing will go wrong. That it will be perfect because you’ve seen it all before. Yet the feeling of it being your own is entirely different.
