Change of Identity

 

Clearly, in factual terms, when you get married, on the outside, your social status will change from being a single person to a married one.

And, as a woman, you will make the decision of whether to change your title of Miss/Ms to Mrs and alter the surname that you have always had.

The point is that you actually take the time during your Wedding Journey to thoroughly consider what that means to you ON THE INSIDE!

  • Is changing your identity in the eyes of society and the law merely a formality to you or does it go much deeper than that?

  • How does it affect your perception of yourself and all the roles you play in life?

  • Will you still see and think of yourself and your partner as individuals or will you think and behave as a couple?

  • How may your married status affect the way that society sees and treats you? What are the pros? What are the cons?

  • How will you feel about losing your single status and single life? What emotions are attached to that?

Just examples of questions that you can ask yourself to help you to come to terms with your changing identity.

It’s a BIG DEAL!! It deserves your ATTENTION and CONTEMPLATION.

No wonder so many brides, experience emotional chaos and confusion (a.k.a. wedding stress or wedding anxiety) when they choose to focus on table decorations instead of confronting what is happening to them ON THE INSIDE as well.

When you address your attitude and acknowledge your thoughts and feelings, you will be making a conscious effort to prepare yourself for what lies before you. And that will give you:

confidence
clarity of mind
greater self awareness
ability to make decisions easier

which will all make your experience of your wedding journey richer, more rewarding and much more enjoyable.
