Has anyone else ever had this issue?
I''m very close with FI''s family, and both his dad and sister are getting married this summer. I''m not getting married until next summer, but I''m having difficulty planning my wedding because I feel guilty! I wouldn''t feel as guilty if I weren''t as close with his family (including sister and future stepmom) except that they''ve both asked for my help with their weddings. I like to get a head start on things, and since I have less than 18 months left, I realllly want to rev my engines and get going with the planning! FI and I are both making/paying for almost everything ourselves, so we need the time to really prepare.
So I guess what I''m asking is how do I get past the guilt of planning my own wedding when I have two other weddings to help plan? (and I know, I put myself in this situation by saying ''yes'' to helping them, but I LOVE weddings!!! Plus, future MIL is pretty clueless and VERY stressed out about planning the wedding...)
advice?
