The Dinner Dilemma: Why Transparency Matters
Imagine you’re planning a special dinner at a restaurant. You have a certain amount you’re willing to spend, but you don’t tell the chef. The chef, thinking you’re ready to splurge, prepares an elaborate multi-course meal. As the dishes arrive, you start to worry that the bill might be much higher than you expected. If you had shared your budget upfront, the chef could have created a menu that delights you without breaking the bank.
The Wedding Wish: Don’t Hold Back
Now, picture this: You’re planning your dream wedding. You’re excited about the big day, but you don’t want to seem too extravagant, so you tell your wedding planner a budget much lower than what you’re actually comfortable spending. The planner, respecting your wishes, sets up a simple ceremony with modest decorations and a small reception. It’s nice, but as you walk down the aisle, you realize it’s not the fairy tale you had envisioned. The grand floral arrangements, the live string quartet, and that gourmet dinner you dreamed of are missing.
