Don't worry about stepping on toes. At the end of the day, the people who offer you all these insights in what they think you should do, are people who care about you. If you gently explain that, actually, you had something different in mind, they will soon come around. And if not, just gently remind them that you are the one who is going to be wed that day.

Your big day is coming up and it feels like there are thousands of things you still need to do and even more details you need to take care of.

It doesn't help that your mother wants you to wear her old wedding dress and your future mother-in-law simply insists you should wear that gorgeous dress she saw the other day (the one she already got you to try on and you felt it was the most unflattering item of clothing you'd ever encountered in your life.)

Your parents want you to have the wedding reception in their garden. Your almost-in-laws want you to have the reception in the room upstairs at the local pub/community centre/country club.

Your parents want traditional wedding food for at the party. Your in-laws want that too, but from a different caterer.

You'd actually love to wear that stunning Vera Wang wedding dress that made you feel like a princess, have already chosen a wonderful party location and have a completely different caterer in mind. But you don't want to offend people...

Issues like these can add to the stress of planning your wedding. Everyone means well and wants the best for you and your future husband (who might have made himself scarce by now and is staying well and truly out of it) but what about you? This is supposed to be your big day. Everybody tells you so, just they have varying ideas of what your big day should be like.

If you recognise yourself in this scenario, I advise you to take a deep breath... and to stop worrying. It happens to brides all over the world. The details I mentioned may be different in your situation, but the pressure from all sides to have your wedding just so is very common.

How do you envision your perfect wedding? And what about your partner, how does he envision that special moment when you will exchange your vows?

Don't worry about what everyone else wants for you - fulfil your own dreams. This is your wedding, after all, and you need to be happy with it. Its memories will last a lifetime.
