Re: 5 DAYS LEFT!!!!!!!!!! Freaking out!!!

  • My wedding is APRIL 14TH!!!
  • Enjoy all the chaos - this is YOUR time!!

    As for the weather - unless you're getting married outside, so what if it rains. At the end of the day, you'll be married to your sweetheart, and crazy weather will just make for fabulous stories later!

  • Family arriving definitely makes it more real. I finally got to meet my FMIL and I know other family is coming in next week. Everything will be just fine. Let go of the perfection. I know it won't be perfect & there is nothing I can do about it. Just have to roll with it. We'll make it through! 
  • Mine is April 14 also and you are right, it is becoming very real! I agree, let go of the perfection, enjoy your time with your friends and family, and focus on the reason for all the celebration, and stress :), you are marrying the man you love! My best friends are coming in Wednesday and Thurs, but my last day of work isnt until Thursday, but luckily I work from home so I will be here. Congrtulations!!
  • Yay!  Family coming in definitely will make it feel more real.  Don't be nervous though, you are marrying your love and I am sure happy and excited to do so.  Just breath and take it all in. 

    As for the weather, don't worry too much, if you have something planned for outside, plan a backup and have some umbrellas. 

  • First, congrats on your home!  That is beyond awesome :)

    And as far as the weather goes, you can't do anything about it.  Just remember that.  If your wedding is outdoors, get a backup plan together, JIC.  Wouldn't it be nice if we could manipulate the weather for a day and bend it to our will?

    <div align="left">I get married on April 21st in St. Louis...i know what you mean about the weather. Its like weeks ago we hit high 90s and near 100 some days in March and now the temps are dropping and more rain is projected. I hope it clears up too for both of us!  Yes it will suck if we can't get outdoor photos in the location i want, but i have a backup plan in mind if it does rain.  The main thing that I am really worried about too if it rains is having to walk around our Chapel outside from the back to get to the front main entrance and having an 8 ft. long train, good thing i have 6 bridesmaids.  Good luck almost here and yes as other people said just try not to stress over the weather and think about being married!!!</div>

    I'm getting married April 14 as well!!! Our family isn't coming in until Thursday, but I still have so much left to do! My printer stopped working, so I still haven't finished a lot of diy projects as well as the programs. My fiance decided to go back to school in the Fall and all he is talking about is which school to go to. He is no help at all. And now my future in-laws keep calling to ask if I've done this or that so they are making me question my every decision! I know that you shouldn't worry about what other people think, it's your wedding, blah blah blah. But it is a production and while I may be the director, but I still need to keep the audience in mind. We shall see what happens once that curtain rises!
  • I'm getting married on the 14th as well. Yes it is very real. I'm not freaking out at all. I did get asked a lot if  I'm ready. I'm totally ready and have everything under control. Deep breaths and you'll be fine.

  • 5 Days! Woo Hoo!  Our families don't start arriving until Wednesday.  We are busy putting together the Welcome Bags and doing other last-minute details!

    I know the weather can make a bride freak out, but there is nothing your worrying is gonna fix so make sure you have a back-up plan....or umbrellas and make the best of it!  :)

    Good luck!  Hope the rest of your week goes well and have a wonderful wedding day!!
