In the Words of Yo Gabba Gabba: You Can't Always Get What You Want

This is one of my favorite songs from the kid's show Yo Gabba Gabba -- you can hear it here -- and after listening to it for the millionth time today I thought it fit nicely as a part two to yesterday's post on What's Worth Fighting For.

When planning your wedding there will be lots of ideas that you'll come across that you'll want to include.  And there are fabulous vendors that you'll meet, but unfortunately may not be available or not in your budget.

While your wedding may seem like the be it and end all of every event you'll ever plan, I promise you it won't be.  You'll plan birthday parties, holiday parties, showers and even cocktail and dinner parties where you can include cast-off ideas and vendors you couldn't hire for your wedding.

It's important when deciding on your details that you stick to your budget and include the elements that are most important to you.  And if something is out of your price range see if you can take money from another area of the wedding.

Now once the wedding's over don't toss away your unused ideas.  Save them in a notebook or box and when you're planning your next party - whatever the occasion and size - take them out and see what you can use or be inspired by for the event!

It's not worth stressing over things you can't have, especially if you can't do anything about it.
