What Brides Say About

Emotionally Engaged

 

 

"It felt so good to talk to other brides and to see that everyone is going through similar difficult issues."--June 2003 Bride (who took the workshop 4 months before her wedding)

 

 

"I got so much more out of this workshop than I ever expected!  I learned so much, and feel much less stressed!" -- August 2004 bride (6 months before her wedding)

 

"I'm sending along pictures of the very happy couple on our wedding day with MANY thanks to you for helping me work through the emotions of being engaged.  Being engaged was so scary at first, but your words kept playing through my head -- especially the day of the wedding.  I thought the day of the wedding, I would be a harried mess but in actuality, I was so calm.  I don't think I have ever felt so calm in all my life and I think it was because I was accepting all the emotions involved in the day and enjoying every single one of them!  Thank you for helping me do that and helping me enjoy the journey to marriage with my husband!  -- January 2005 bride (after her wedding)

 

 

"Without a doubt I recommend this workshop.  It helped me make sense of my "craziness" and other powerful feelings which are nearly paralyzing to talk about. You gave us so much information, and the emotions shared in those few hours were powerful. I wish it had gone on and on!"  -- October 2003 bride (7 months before her wedding)  

 

 

 

"Now that I see my engagement as a rite of passage, it really simplified the emotional aspect of being engaged. This perspective makes the emotions much easier to understand."-- June 2004 Bride (15 months before her wedding)

 

 

 

 

"It was a wonderful experience.  It was worth the money paid for the workshop extremely worth it." -- May 2003 Bride (5 months before her wedding)

"Framing the transition from fiancee to wife as an identity change was really validating.  The family mapping was very useful, personally, and fascinating to see others' family maps too -- how the same themes came up in different family situations.   Allison's own experiences were very validating and useful reminders of what we're all going through.  There was great interplay between the women attending.  This workshop was very rewarding and consequential for me.  Thank you so much!" -- June 2003 Bride (3 months before her wedding)

 

 

 

"Thank you for coming up with such a great idea.  I definitely needed it." -- February 2004 Bride  (13 months before her wedding)

 

 

 

 

 

"I loved it!  This workshop offers explanations and clarifications on what is really going on emotionally during this transition from fiancée to wife, as well as support and encouragement." -- June 2004 Bride (17 months before her wedding)

 

 

 

"Sharing our crises and concerns was really helpful for me.  It just helps to have support during this time." -- May 2003 Bride (4 months before her wedding)

 

"For me, the most helpful discussion was the exploration of "Why are we crying?"  It helped me figure out the complexity of the underlying emotions that brought the tears on.  This discussion gave me more courage to feel my feelings, with the understanding that once I let a feeling out and pass through me, it will pass.  These are emotions that all brides feel, no matter how happy we are, and it feels GREAT to think and feel about them." -- October 2003 Bride (10 months before her wedding)
