One Month- just about...

So, I am about a month out and starting to panic. I know everything will get done in time, but my mind is 100 percent consumed by wedding stuff. I cannot concentrate on work at all. I've been trying to read this same report for the past 3 hours and I keep drifting off to my registry, coming on here, googling cakes, etc.

I just want to make sure I'm not alone, Wives out there, is this how you were??

The only item I will not compromise on...my bouquet of all purple tulips wrapped in a swatch from my Mom's wedding dress.

    Sari- Once you get the big stuff booked, your mind will most likely go on a short wedding hiatus, at least mine did, and has come back in recent weeks with a vengeance!

    I moved halfway across the country a month before the wedding and started a new job 2 weeks before, I didn't have time to think about a wedding!  Smile Obviously it was on my mind, of course, but having other things going on meant I wasn't focused on it 100% of the time.

    First of all, yay for being nearly a month out!! And yes, I had trouble concentrating at work in the last month or so, but it was definitely the worst my last day at work before the wedding.

    Sending good vibes to you to ease the stress!

    I am feeling that way three months out. A day off from work to focus on what you need to accomplish realllllly helps. Makes you feel recharged and incontrol again.

    As a tip to try, in the moments when you feel totally stressed, focus your attention on that feeling and then OWN it. "Yes, I am acknowledging how I feel, but it doesn't need to be this way." Think of the day after your wedding when all the stress will be gone and imagine how that would feel--then bring THAT feeling to your present state of being. You might find that your stress has vanished :-)

    Good luck!

    Omg... I'm totally all over the place too. I can't concentrate on ANYTHING. My school work is slipping and, overall, I'm just a mess - You are most definitely not alone! Yay for

    Yep.  I'm definitely that way too but I find myself focusing on certain things.  Like I focus on one wedding task each day during work - today was finding dinnerware at one of the stores on my registry.  Otherwise my mind is all over the place - and never at work doing work!!
