It took two months from the day my fiance proposed to my first Google search for 'wedding planning: how?' Now, let me interrupt myself here and share how much I hate using the word 'fiance.'

If you're going to plan a wedding, then a certain amount of suffering is not a choice. -Ellie Kemper Wedding
