It is so amazing to do what I do....LOL. I work with brides that cry, mothers that yell, woman who can't stand it anymore, kids that cry, grooms that don't want to spend any more money, fathers that feel they have to sell everything to afford the wedding, ministers who want the seriousness of weddings to be put back into the wedding, groomsmen who want to get drunk cause now it has put wedding thoughts into their dates and they would have to grow up and be held as men should. LOL that is how some people see what I do.

JELLO...is what is really going on when a person plans weddings. We have to make everything gel. Gel a positive word used when people get on well with each other and therefore connect. I just looked up Jello in Urban Dictionary..."Mediocre sex" who has ever heard of such a thing. Youth see things so different than married people. A person who works out relationships is not a Jello, there is no sex involved. It is communication, lots of prayer and help from each person, as they comment to helping the Bride and Groom have the best day possible. I would like to say it is the "Best Day of their Life's". That is not always the reality. Sometimes the best day of the lives is the day they both are in agreement of what their lives should be. The wedding is only the beginning of their day together.

The word of God is very clear about marriage. "Give me my wife; I've completed what we agreed I'd do. I'm ready to consummate my marriage." Gen 29:21-29 Wedding is a time of celebration. A right of passage for many. Men and Women see this moment differently. Many see it as the above, however I see it differently.
I see it as a moment, when both people are committed to each other. One asked a question and the other said yes. My job is to make sure the details are all in place so this can happen. Some of the times in their lives will be good, others not so good. This is what make the couple who they are, how they will react to life, its responsibilities and the future. Planning their wedding is the refining fire that puts them together. How the couple deals with the real issues that arise makes their marriage, and family life what it is.
I am a Yenta, "A person, especially a woman, who is meddlesome or gossipy" A Diamond Glamour Girl, a person who knows how to use gossip correctly. To help and not to hurt. A "Yentle", a matchmaker. We help people we do not destroy them. Not all people who plan weddings are this. Some are Jello and some just look like Jello.
There are people who believe in the "Good" of people, those that see beyond the complaining, the yelling the fighting, those that believe in God as a Good God, The Lord as a Good Lord. They also know of those that don't.
This Holiday Season, think of who God brings into your life....are they a Yenta? He has a banquet for you were "He" will share of "His" love for you....
