wedding porn

Sara from the $2000 wedding blog coined this term on elizabethannedesigns.com/blog today, and it occurs to me that there is no better way to describe wedding magazines and blogs.

I, like many brides, suffer from an addiction to this "wedding porn" that comes and goes in waves (that is directly correlative to what else is ... or is not ... going on in my life). I struggle with the vacillating desire to plan the wedding of my dreams and the desire to elope (and eskew all things kitschy). Thankfully, I still have seven months to find the happy medium, but sometimes I wonder (like when my wedding planner suggests a budget of $10k to $40k for FLOWERS/DECOR), how did I get HERE and how can I both enjoy the indulgence of this process and stay true to my sometimes-anti-bride self?

We need to talk about the flowers.
