Today marks 100 days until my wedding, and I'm kind of freaking out about entering the double digits. Did anyone else get suuuuper nervous?

I have all the big stuff done. I have to book our hotel rooms and arrange the rehearsal dinner/girls&guys nights out. I'm going to paint our monogram on an aisle runner and make little cupcake picks to decorate our Retro cupcakes. I have to schedule alterations and figure out the logistics/schedule of our trip. Details are all that's left.

Once I have that stuff done, will I chill out? Did anyone feel nervous about pulling off such a big expensive event? I'm worried that our guests won't feel like it was worth the trip. I'm nervous about being the center of attention. I'm feeling a lot of pressure. Advice??

I didn't get nervous until right before we left. But this is because I am a procrastinator. 

As far as worrying about your guests not thinking the trip is worth it, I wouldn't worry about that at all. I would say our wedding day and related activities were pretty minimal and everyone had a great time. We still have people telling us how much fun it was a few weeks later. I think your guests are going  to have a blast! Check that off your worry list!

I did not really calm down until we paid the last of our reception like the day before. It was such a huge weight I wish we would have done it sooner!

I would bet that I will calm down in a couple weeks, and then be a complete mess a week before we leave. I'm trying to stay organized so that I'm not in a panic, but the excitement/nervousness will be so killer in the days before we leave. We get to Vegas on Tuesday and the wedding is on Saturday, so hopefully the vibe of a Vegas vacation will chill me out too.

That may be part of it too Shannyn; we have our 50% deposit on our reception due July 1st, and it's a big chunk. It's hard to depart with money!

I was a little concerned about a few vendors coming through with everything exactly how we wanted but in the end it went perfect.

This was what I was most worried about. I honestly didn't calm down until after I said "I DO"

Yep, definitely got nervous when I hit the 100 day mark, but calmed down. But ditto ricekim about not worrying about your guests.  Our weekend activites were also minimal, and we weren't even on the strip but people loved hanging out at Green Valley Ranch and people are still talking about how much fun they had.

I had sporadic moments of panic about the guest liking things, did I book the right vendors, etc...I was pretty stress until we hit Las Vegas the day before the wedding, then I said "F-- it! It gonna go how it's gonna go at this point!" lol. So it's normal

I was nervous starting at like 3 months out. It went away when we got in the car and drove to Vegas. I figured, what's done is done, and I can't change it now! So I just enjoyed our time there.
