You can rest assured that it's going to happen at some point during your wedding planning process: that perfect venue for your vintage submarine-themed wedding is going to fall through. You battle with your in-laws to try to keep the guestlist under 100 people, and you find yourself putting stamps on 200 invitations. Your dreams of locally-sourced, delicately spiced catering is going to be replaced by your mother's "beef or chicken" menu that reminds you of funeral food (true story!).

You're going to be frustrated. You're going to feel like you gave in to family pressure. You're going to feel disappointed and gritty and maybe even a little pissed off. Wedding planning disappointments: THEY WILL HAPPEN. Since there's no avoiding them completely, the best you can do is have your emotional toolkit ready to help you recover.

I'm here to help with that.

"Summer heat, boy and girl meet, but uh-oh those summer nights." The last day of Beach Week features a couple who tied the knot to keep those hot summer nights going. Plus, there's victory curls and zombies — tell me more, tell me more!

Baby, it's cold outside. Sit back, listen to the fireplace roar, and enjoy Day 1 of Beach week and this science-nerd, muli-cultural, lawn-game-playin' wedding!

You've already seen their incredible first kiss. Get ready too be wowed by their bad-ass tea party and then warm up your voice for some drunken motown at their after-party.
