Ideally the bride and groom should plan their wedding together.
However, things have a way of being taken over by the strongest personality and the most
efficient planner. Let’s face it. It’s usually the bride or the bride’s
mother. And when the Mother-in-Law gets her hands in, it can get a little sticky. The
point is, if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. Delegate as many
responsibilties as possible so that you can relax on your wedding day.
