Wedding Nightmare

AlliJae

So I have to share this because if I don't it will be stuck in my head all day and it will make me sad/stressed! And Fi is traveling so I can't tell him. And he thinks I am crazy for having wedding nightmares. ha. It's because he thinks I am such a good planner and have everything under control. (I HOPE!!) Here it goes:

(Premise: I am having an outdoor ceremony and reception)

So the day rolls around of my wedding. And all the sudden I realize that NOTHING is done. We had a huge long DIY list and not one single thing was done. And I was freaking out. So I started asking my mom for scrapbook paper to make some paper garlands, and to go order some balloons for decorations because I had NO clue what to do at that point. Total freak out moment. I was crying and yelling at everyone and Fi didn't know what to do with me. My wedding coordniator wasn't there...and never showed up through my whole dream. I was so ticked.

It had been  raining all day and I kept saying how "on all the wedding blogs that i read the sun always comes out right before the ceremony starts". HA! Instead it started lightening and thundering and a huge tree in our backyard fell right infront of our tent so we couldn't access the tent anymore.

Guests started arriving. I wasn't in my dress. Didn't know who was doing my make-up and my photographers (who live about 3 hours way) were just leaving their house.

I then woke up...in a cold sweat! And I'm pretty sure I was crying in my sleep. Ugh.

Thanks for letting me "vent", I feel better already.
I HATE WEDDING NIGHTMARES!!!

Oh no Alli!  I hate wedding nightmares, too, but I do think they will help us be more prepared for when the big day comes.  Don't worry, I'm sure your wedding will be beautiful with NO lightning or trees falling down!

I hate wedding nightmares. I have them at leas tonce a week.  My biggest doozie was that we were at the church getting ready (my very conservative Catholic church mind you) and we couldn't find ANY of the dresses. Mine or the BMs. So they rustle up some coconut bras and hula skirts to walk down the aisle in. And they walk. But I still don't have a dress.  So they come back up the aisle with one dress that fits me but is see thru and one dress that is way too big for me with emerald green trim on it (not one of my colors).  It sucked.

Alli- I had one last night similar to yours! The wedding was the next day and I had absolutely none of my DIY projects done. I was freaking out! When I woke up I wanted to start making pomanders and favor tags at 0230. Haha.

I've had similar ones where nothing is done, too!  Just give it a couple of days and relax - after a few days I'm able to look back at the nightmare and laugh at it; they get pretty funny eventually, if you keep thinking about them

Oh my... I had a similar "nightmare"--only I wasn't asleep.  I worry as the countdown continues if I will find myself on my wedding day without the "to-do" list items accomplished and a mess to clean up. Ahhh, the stress of a bride to be!

Oh how I hate them. I wake up almost every morning and remember that I dreamed about the wedding just don't remember the dream. I am really happy about that. The ones I do remember are never fun. They have ranged from invites never getting sent to all the flowers are dead.

I have had a few wedding nightmares myself!!! They def keep you in check with the planing! But I am sure the things you have mentioned won't happen to you!  I'm sure you are working on the projects and have a great timeline set up, your vendors wil show up on time, and everything wil be beautiful!! Don't worry just use this to keep you in check with your planning!
