I used to dream about that until I had to plan my own wedding. Never. Again.

I planned my first wedding and I loved it (even though it was a bust) and I've done a few parties for my mom's company. I enjoy the artsy fartsy aspect of it, I think  :)

My real dream is to open a bookshop.

I LOVE BOOKS! That would be fun to own. With a coffee shop in it  ;D

Wow, I also dream about being a wedding planner/ event coordinator. But, I think of the licenses and all sorts that I'd have to pick up, and I get discouraged and leave it. I guess I just like having my hands into a bit of everything.

What licenses do you have to get? I s'pose a business license, right? But I don't think you need an actual license to plan events, do you?!

I know you'd need a business license, but, since you'd be dealing with all sorts of different vendors and stuff, there'd be a lot of things that you'd need to know, I'd imagine. Bridal dress companies, photographers, catering companies, bakeries, dietary needs and how to substitute things when people have various food allergies, a bit of psychology, religions, and how they work with eachother or clash with eachother,  what to look for in venues, what appropriate venues are in the surrounding areas, visas, marriage documents that a couple would need. I'm probably rattling on, possibly needlessly, but, it's just what I think.  :)

Of course I overlook the logistics of it all. Haha! Well, it's a nice dream :)

My real dream is to open a bookshop. I'd have second-hand and new books, and also serve coffee and snacky things (just biscuits and scones, maybe). There would be lectures and talks, discussion groups, a book club, a Scrabble and/or Boggle club (or maybe just a games day once a month).....And maybe a local art sale once a year. And musical events once in a while too - like local musicians.

Ah, dreams.

This is my fantasy!  :) It will stay that way 'cause I am not independently wealthy to outsource yet control my bookshop vision and I am too ****ing lazy to do it myself!  ;D

oh I think we all think the same kinda when it comes to ease of getting things and comfortably.  A book shop with half price books and real coffee shop with a bakery attached with taco bell and chick fil a across the street would be perfect if I could live on top ;-)
