My daughter is engaged and I'm not even hyperventilating ....yet.She called us up and told us the news and I threw her some offers... grandmother's dress? her diamonds? destination wedding? home wedding?
But then I stopped suggesting.
My formal wedding was completely mom-planned. She didn't want my input and since we were flying in long distance from California...there wasn't much I could do about it. Hub and I showed up on the appointed day and hour and played our parts.
I decided the first gift I would give my daughter was to keep quiet and just be supportive.
It's their big day....whether they want a small wedding...big wedding...exotic wedding or a wedding in Vegas with Elvis officiating...it's their choice.
Tomorrow I'll call her and check-on things.
Let them have fun..planning and deciding. The checkbook will be ready when they are.
