Not in as much detail, but I'd especially talk about who was going to be my maid of honor and such.<br />Now, I've decided that I want to court. I don't know a great deal about it, but I plan to keep researching it. I know enough to understand how it works.<br />My parents are loving Christian parents, but they never really knew about courtship themselves. I had 'boyfriends' all throughout elementary school and my parents never minded. <br />As I got older, I no longer 'went out' with anyone. When I really claimed my faith as my own, the Lord was slowly shaping my ideas on dating. Now, I've chosen courtship and my parents (and grandparents) thought it was a wonderful idea when I explained it to them.<br />BTW, Josh and Anna Duggar were the best view of courtship I've seen so far. They pretty much made up my mind for me. :D I used to always plan my wedding. Not in as much detail, but I’d especially talk about who was going to be my maid of honor and such.

Mama used to say I could be the church wedding consultant because I knew so much of what went into that big day. but now I find that I would rather forego all of that to be in a lifelong relationship with the man God made me for. looking back on all of that time spent planning the perfect day makes me cringe at how selfish I was being. this is so relevant. when I was growing up my friends and I would spend hours planning details including the attendants. now I know that all of that was wasted time because every single plan I had at that point has changed at least ten times.
