You can create a day that everyone can enjoy.
As you are planning and stressing about the cost and details, take some time to talk to some of your recently-married friends, both female and male, to help put things in perspective. Ask what the best and worst aspect of the day was for them, what they wished they had invested more time and money in and what, in retrospect, was a waste of effort. If you can get some feedback from those who have been through it before you, you can save a lot of heartache freaking out about the color of the tissue insert in your invitations and deal with what really matters.
Again, there truly are just a few critical things necessary for a your big day. So many things are just extra things. It can be fun to have a lot of bells and whistles; however, if that would be more stressful than fun for you, simply forgo them.
