By Rachel from the Austin Wedding Blog – Guest Blogger on the Bride Tide Blog

I saw this classic list on a great blog www.bridetide.blogspot.com

I may be guilty of one or two of the below.....



You Might Be A Wedding Planner if:

.... you're 3-year old's Hanna Montana birthday party had a seating arrangement & place cards

.... you take notes while watching Bridezillas

.... it takes you 2 weeks and four vendors to plan dinner

.... you throw rice at graduations

....you fight the urge to bustle every gown you see

.... you've memorized other peoples vows

.... you insist Thanksgiving begin with a rehearsal dinner

.... you can recite wedding stats by memory

.... when you go grocery shopping, you request an estimate

.... you know the floorplan of every venue within a 50 mile radius

.... your to-do-lists are in calligraphy

.... you've finalized vendors for your kid's PTA school carnival

.... your brunches include a dessert bar

.... your last Easter dinner was more extravagant than most weddings

.... you can fix ANYTHING with two-way tape, bobby pins and lip gloss

.... you ask yourself "What Would Martha Do?"

.... you have an emergency stack of linens in your trunk

.... during family vacations, you constantly "cue" your kids for pics
