Has anyone else considered having two micro-weddings in different locations to accommodate family? At first it seemed like a great solution but the logistics are starting to give me anxiety...

Sort of… I’m currently considering having a small local wedding (New Jersey) and a destination wedding where my fiancés family is from. I think your best bet to combat. The anxiety is seeking out a wedding planner.

That has been the only way I’ve felt less anxiety

Not quite but we’re having the main wedding where I’m from then a few months later, we’re having a more casual celebration where he’s from for his family who can’t make it. The main wedding will the ceremony and big reception. The casual celebration would be at his mother’s and will be more of a picnic vibe with caterer food/bbq.

Hi Fishes do anyone have received MSI yet?!

What do you guys think about apps like BetterHelp and Talkspace? I understand they might have real therapists working on their content, but a lot of the marketing I see is so vague and broad that it feels like a lie. Seems like "This app got rid of my anxiety with a 30-minute automated text questionnaire" is the new "This tea made me lose 20 pounds in two weeks!" Just seems a little fad-like and money grabby to me. Thoughts?
