July 2012 Weddings

Anyone else about to lose it?

As of yesterday, I feel like I'm about to lose my mind.  I felt in control of everything I need to take care of for the wedding, especially since I have until the 28th, so FI and I decided we have time to finish my living room rennovation before the wedding.  Then over the weekend and yesterday, people are bombarding me with tons of wedding questions - some important, some not.  I'm so ready to not have to make decisions for other people.  And then a lot of our friends and family want to call in favors - like they think FI won't be able to do anything for them after we're married; this is the problem with FI being handy - everyone wants free work out of him.

Tomorrow, I think I'm turning my phone off and not thinking about anything wedding realated except how excited I am to be marrying the love of my life.

Re: Anyone else about to lose it?

  • My BM that came over yesterday was the MOH in her sister's wedding 2 weeks ago and her sister is pretty much the opposite of me and cares about all the little decisions.  She's like how are we wakling down the aisle, like normal walking or this step pause thing, I was like WTF are you talking about?  I'm really over all the planning and whatever happens, happens.  I do need to focus some of my attention onto the RD since we are hosting at our house.

  • I flipped out on my mom last night because she was asking me about the seating chart and telling me that how I had it written out was not right.  I had nothing in any particular order, just put the names of people together until I got the actual seating chart from the venue.  She then proceeds to tell me that I need to calm down and not everyone has been looking at this thing for the past month every day.

    I can't wait till it's over and I don't feel like I'm going to breakdown every day/night.

  • Your not the only one about to lose it. I lost it last night. It just seem like everything is compiling into one, and I can't take it anymore. Last night we met with the our pastor to give him our marriage license and to pick up some odds and ends. FI told the pastor his parents are divorced and don't talk, what options do we have for them to walk down the isle. After talking to him about it, we leave and FI calls his mom. His mom wants it the way she wants it, she wants to walk down the isle with her guy-friend. Well that ended up blowing up...

    It's Fi and I's day, not anyone else's. I'm sick of everyone saying "well this would look nice", "why dont you do it this way"... yadda yadda yadda.

    I honestly can't wait for the planning to all be over. I just want the wedding to be here and enjoy the day with my FI :-)

  • I lost it last night at the church while decorating. I was good up until I pinched the crap out of my palm (I didn't think it was possible to bruise your palm). Now I have to hold my bouquet Saturday with bruised up palm! That was all it took. I sat down and just cried. My mom came and held me. At that moment I thought nothing was going right. We are on a time crunch and it's stressful. God Bless my friend Frances for telling me today to slow down that I was stressing myself out and not enjoying it. I needed to hear that. But I do agree I will be so glad when I don't constantly have someone telling me to remember this and don't forget to do that and did I think of this..

  • Not really, but lately we've had to answer a ton of questions from our vendors and start working on our timeline. It's tiring, but I just get it done. Nobody has bothered us about the details.

    But I am starting to feel the pressure to keep my MOH occupied while I work on wedding stuff- there are just some things that people can't really help us with. I feel like I'm responsible for her and need to make sure she is taken care of too. But it's not that bad- she's a grown lady and she can fend for herself at times :)
