Did anyone else have dreams about their wedding?
In the past 2 weeks:
- I have dreamt that I forgot to buy FI's ring, so I had to run out that day and missed my hair appointment
- I forgot to get my dress altered and the day of it doesn't fit
- A storm hit and I couldn't get to the ceremony site and FI was there waiting for me
I should also note, that I am normally a vivid dreamer. For years after graduating college, I dreamt (or dreamed, both work, right?) that I forgot my cap and gown, or showed up and didn't qualify to graduate. Hell, last night I dreamt that Kate McKinnon arrested me for drinking a bottle of wine while driving a golf cart LOL.
But the switch to wedding dreams is recent, and I still have 8 months to go! What were your crazy dreams about?
Re: Dreams about the wedding
Two night ago I just had my first weird wedding dream, tho! FI and I hadn't bought rings, either, and I ended up doing nothing with my hair (I plan on doing a floral crown and updo, but the crown never came in in my dream and I didn't have time for an updo), and my mom wasn't feeling well so she didn't want to be in any of the photos or go to the reception, and I felt really bad.
Even in the chaos, though, it wasn't a bad dream. We did get married in it, and I woke up happy, albeit feeling the pressure to get some things done!
I also dreamt that I showed up and didn't know anybody at the wedding, or that nobody came, or that way too many people came.
- FI's cousin was told we couldn't accommodate her very young children at the wedding and showed up with them anyway. We let them stay, and the two kids proceeded to wreck the cake and trash the venue.
- The best man (who's extremely flaky and can't remember the wedding date even though he was asked if the date is ok with him and we confirmed it multiple times) had the rings and simply did not show up, and we couldn't get a hold of him.
- Not one of mine, but FI actually had a nightmare that I bought a black wedding dress and woke up panicking. I may have taken teasing him about it a little too far when he misunderstood a comment I made about buying a dress in black.
I am so glad I'm not alone, when it comes to wedding dreams! I'm getting married in just under three months, and I've had three crazy wedding dreams so far. In order, here they are:
1. Everyone showed up late to the wedding, including the WP! We had to push everything back an hour, and my "Type-A" personality was not having it.
2. The ceremony and reception were "backwards." I have no idea how this happened, but everyone came to the reception venue first, had great time, and then watched our ceremony. (Maybe this was due to my constant worrying about making sure the invites were printed correctly?)
3. Our ceremony was a mess. The music was played incorrectly (the WP had the correct songs, but I some how walked down the aisle to a Beyoncé song...) and the things taking place in the ceremony were out of order (rings first, etc.). Also one of my crazy ex-friends who had offered to help with the wedding backed out (that happened for real...long story!), and for some reason, she cancelled our party bus and cupcakes to spite us. We still got married, but it was a bizarre day.
My weirdest one to date was that we had our ceremony in a high school gym on the basketball court, and there were kids playing basketball on the other half of the court, and only 11 people showed up. Don't know what that one meant!
That is fantastic! My weirdest one was about the color of my dress. I ordered it in ivory and champagne but had only seen it in white, I had a dream that I put it on the day of and it was some crazy green, pink and brown combination with a huge leather brown belt, it looked like something out of Peter Pan. In the same dream I forgot to order any food and send out invites so I was just hanging out in my Peter Pan dress by myself.
