Overwhelmed

in October 2012 Weddings
We are about 4 months away from the wedding and I am freaking out! I thought I was ahead in all my planning but now all these small little things are coming out and it seems like it is so much!  Of course FI is no help to me and keeps telling me "whatever you want." I still need to finish my invitation wording, find the GM's clothes, find the BM's shoes and accessories, finalize the honeymoon plans, get passports, and the list goes on! I am excited that we are so close but now I feel overwhelmed. Especially since FI recently decided we would do an in Suite reception and invite some extended family to the wedding. I feel I am running out of time.

    Make a list and check each thing off one by one. Is there anything that can be delegated? Maybe have one of your more helpful BMs research shoes and accessories while your FI gets all of the information/paperwork together for your passports? Or, if you're a control freak (like many of us are), just try to do one thing (no matter how small) per night. I promise it will all come together! There's still lots of time!

    Yes! FI and I made a big checklist last week and it has helped a ton to calm my mind.

    Be careful on the passports. Are you changing your name? If so get your HM and passports in your current name since they all have to match. After you get your name changed you can have your passport stamped with an Ammendment/Endorsement that your name is changed. I'd hate for you to not be able to go on your HM because your name isn't legally changed yet and all the info is with your married name.
