Is A Wedding Journal Worth It?

It doesn’t matter how many pictures and videos get taken, there are some details that can’t be caught on camera. There are emotions that can’t be conveyed and therefore won’t be remembered. Writing everything down in a journal can help you create a keepsake that you can look back on for years to come. These journals are highly customizable and can be made custom to whatever you desire, here are a few examples. 

You’d be able to keep track of every little detail throughout the wedding process. To spice it up, switch the journal off between you and your partner, it’ll be fun to look back at after the wedding. You’ll be able to see what you both were thinking and feeling, something that the cameras won't exactly be able to shed light on. This vulnerability increases the trust between you and your partner, making the relationship even stronger. 

Do you enjoy the wedding planning process?

If yes, then writing about the ups and downs of the journey would be perfect for the wedding journal. Details ranging from picking out your wedding dress to deciding on a cake design can be chronicled as you move through the process. 

Everything is worth remembering. 

Things like the feeling of telling your engagement story, asking someone to be your best man or maid of honor, or even when you knew your partner was the one are perfect moments to document in your wedding journal. 

The highs and lows. 

Throughout the wedding process, it only makes sense that there will be highs and lows. There’s a lot to do, and stress is inevitable. Being nervous in this situation is completely normal, and a good way to calm your nerves would be to express how you feel in the journal. 

Keeping a wedding journal doesn’t have to be a complicated process. Treat it as a stress reliever throughout the journey and that’s exactly what it’ll become. As long as you're honest about what you write and share the moments you believe to be important, the journal will turn out to be a wonderful keepsake for the future.
