June 2012 Weddings

Anyone else...?

Completely over wedding planning? I swear it's been an easy ride thus far but damnn I couldn't care less at this point! I'm very much a perfectionist and detail oriented person but something about it feels needlessly overwhelming.  Saying yes was the easiest decision I ever made, so shouldn't all this be too? 

As I said I've hardly had problems, but my mom just seems to care so much! It's just so not me. I know it will go well, I trust everyone we have hired, and I can't wait; I really am excited.  I just wish someone else did it all for me.  At this point I should just let my mom do what she wants haha.

Anyone else feel this way? Or am I the sole bride who couldn't give a shh

Re: Anyone else...?

  • I have been feeling the exact same way. I am just DONE and I want it to be 06.30.12 NOW. I am sooooo over the small details!!

  • yeap! I am done.. there are only so many wedding things you can look at before it gets boring. I am just ready for the day to get here already!!!
  • i2i Meg, I told Fi last night that if I could do it over again I would hire someone to do it all for me.
  • You're definetly NOT alone. I went through a phase during the holidays where I was SO over anything wedding that I didn't even sign onto here anymore. Granted, I had a ton of other things going on but still. At one point my mom asked me a question about my shower and I responded "I'm getting married? Huh..." She and my sister were dumbfounded ("There is SO much to do. You don't have that much time left...") but I needed a break. I started telling myself that regardless of if STDs ever went out or if my bridal shower was ever planned I was still getting married to my best friend on June 16. I'm back in planning mode now...but I still think I'm way more laid back about it and definitely enjoy it MUCH LESS than most brides. It's safe to say that I WILL NOT be one of those brides who suffers from some sort of wedding planning withdrawal depression after my wedding. ;) Hang in there...

    I have my days. But honestly I believe it's because of the long engagement we've had.  1 year and 9 months is entirely too long! IMO

    Haha, by the time we get married it will be 27 months!   I totally agree with you, I mean we waited so long to save up the money and what not but it still feels like forever and I think that definitely contributes to my feeling of wanting it to just be here.
  • Yeah it's been since October for us, and we've had most everything settled with a year to go.  So there's been a huge lull, and not much left to do. But like you guys said, the little things add up and I should have mentioned my middle name is indecisive. 
  • YES!!! I am so ready for all of this to be done. I was telling FI the other day I am ready for life to go back to normal. When my every thought did not revolve around the wedding.
  • Same as other PP's. I am ready for it to be here and done. I am over the little stuff. I love my mom but she is driving me crazy over the littlest details. I just pray that everything goes well. It doesn't help that I have "seniorits" I am in my 2nd to last class right now for my masters and I am so over that too.

  • I've really enjoyed the process, but I'm starting to get overwhelmed by the little things, too.

  • I'm off and on... Right now I'm in my off stage. I've got so much to take care of at work that requires little details that I don;t have the time or patience to deal with my own little details for the wedding. I keep telling myself as soon as I'm back from my trip to Vancouver for work I'll get on it, but now it's looking like the end of February before I have time to do much besides a few little phone calls... February 16 on I'll really get back into it. Thats my plan anyways.

    [QUOTE I just want it to be over with so that I don't have to think about it and stress anymore. I'm still really excited about the wedding, but I am sooo over planning it.

  • I feel the same as you. My mom keeps asking me all these things, and I'm just like I don't know...I'm kinda frustrated at how little I want to deal with it all. I hope it gets better...
