As a teenager (and later!), I loved looking at Bridal magazines. I probably bought the very first issues of Martha Stewart Weddings 15 years ago. I loved looking at the pictures, the ideas...but it probably wasn't so healthy for me to be dreaming about a wedding! About 8 years ago, I stopped the habit...mostly to keep myself from being sad about not having a wedding!
Well, now that I am planning my own wedding, I have every excuse to read these magazines! I don't even really get too many ideas from them; I just enjoy the act of reading them. One or two days a week during lunch, I head over to the Starbucks near my office, grab a latte, and sit and read these magazines. It is relaxing and exciting all at once!
I have to say though, I'm amazed at how much the things mentioned in the magazines cost! I'm almost thankful that we are on a budget. I can't imagine how I would make decisions if cost were not a factor.
