Family; you can’t live with them and you can’t live with them. But they’re everything, right? And you still love them MOST of the time.

Today I want to chat about the different (read: crazy/difficult/upsetting) family dynamics that you may be concerned about in the lead-up to your wedding.

The step parents, half siblings, divorced parents and uncle who’s not really your uncle that your Dad can’t stand.

You’ll learn about:

• Why you can (and should) let go of the idea of a perfect wedding (or a perfect family!)
• How to have conversations that set boundaries with compassion
• Some real-life experiences and solutions other engaged couples have used for complicated situations
• And, most importantly, how to release the pressure and guilt.

Because whatever your family looks like, you deserve a day filled with meaning and love, with your sanity intact.
