Wedding Wisdom... Remember to keep all vendors informed. Begin considering the rehearsal dinner. Will you be writing your own vows? A simple thank you goes a long way. Take a quick moment to express your gratitude with a little surprise. Remember to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Maximize use of those stress-buster techniques! Stress = frowns so put on a smile! It will make a difference especially when it is returned in kind. Treat your fiancé and yourself to a massage.
