August 2012 Weddings

August isn't far away....

Hi all - Time is going quickly, isn't it? I'm finding myself more stressed than normal these days...August isn't far away! I know that I'm right on schedule, but even writing that doesn't make me feel that way. I just need some confirmation that others are feeling the same way as me. Is anyone else drinking more wine than normal when you should actually be focused on losing weight rather than consuming more calories?

Re: August isn't far away....

  • i hear ya!  I feel like all the questiosn people are asking me, I don't have answers too, not that I should at this point, but i can feel the start of the crunch.

  • I haven't had anyone ask me about day-of yet and I'm wondering why I even need one.  If they know what time my ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are...
  • I am actually feeling pretty good with where i stand in my planning, in fact i am probably ahead of schedule because, no one is really asking for a day of timeline and i have that pretty nailed down.

    So excited for August to get here!!! :) And if you feel crunched maybe take a break on the weekend and dont think about the wedding, go on a walk with your fi and enjoy each other! :)

  • I do feel like time is flying by so fast! Before we know it invites will be going out!! I feel pretty goo personally where I am at though and I am kind of taking a little break from getting much more done to focus on my last two months of school, apply for jobs and to focus on one of my best friends weddings coming up in May. :)
  • I agree with the crunch sentiment!! I have been putting wedding planning on the backburner this month because other things like starting one job, hunting for another one, apartment hunting and FI buying a car have taken precedence. I feel like I'm getting behind though!

  • I had gotten to that point. Last Friday- the day I booked my flowers- I was so anxious because looking at my appointments on my calendar has that effect on me. What I did was I went to a Hibachi place with my siblings, parents, my babe, and their significant others and had a great time. No wedding talk, whatsoever and have felt so much better since.

  • I'm already starting to have nightmares about what will go wrong on our wedding day!!! haha Mostly that everyone is getting ready and is paying no "attention" to me, not even in the less, not that I feel all the attention needs to be on my, but you know what I mean. I can't even get the hair dresser to help me out, they are just all eyes on the bridesmaids! lol
    I started to realize I have lots to do and can get a lot of it out of the way now while there isn't much going on, I just have to get my fiance to realize that too!!
  • I've felt the crunch for awhile, but at the same time am staying calm because my big things (except for honeymoon) are taken care of!  I've had nightmares recently, and they are stressing me out (in one my bridesmaids decided to alter their dresses to make them look like TINKERBELL - super skin tight and barely covering their lady parts- and that FREAKED me out), but FI just keeps making me breathe and telling me everything will be ok :)

  • Wedding planning is slightly on hold for us at the moment. Luckily we got the major things booked earlier this year. Our focus at the moment is buying our first place together. We are totally crazy for adding this stress at the moment especially as it may mean we have to make some changes to the wedding. I try to deflect questions whenever people ask me about details i just say things are coming along.

  • I was really wrapped up in details for awhile & then I went on vacation for over a week.  I've been home for nearly a week and have yet to get involved anywhere near the degree I was.  It has been so great & the vacation was EXACTLY what I needed to remember that it's only one day and no one cares about the details except ME!  I am way less stressed and feel much better - I highly recommend it.  It's like pressing reset on yourself Laughing

  • Mega stressed- mostly because I am totaly procrastinator and was being all "oh we have time" "i don't mind" "take your time." This week, I really started feeling the crunch and though drinking is not my vice, my girl scout cookies are gone. Bye bye waist line. glad others are feeling this way!

  • Yup, falling in line with the "oh crap August isn't too far off."  It has hit more this week since it will be 5 months from Sunday.

    FI had a very reassuring comment about it last night. "All we need is each other, the wedding bands, and the pastor. All to which we already have.  The rest of the stuff is just extra's."  So that made me feel a little better since we have all of the items done that we "need."

    We'll all get there ladies. One day at a time.

  • I cant believe how fast time is flying by it just hit me that my wedding is in like 4 1/2 months and my shower is June 9th and I still have to add more stuff to registries. I cry a lot but I know it will be over soon and I am enjoying some of the things too just getting really anxious. Hang in there girls everything will get done and all the planning and stress will be worth it on the big day!!
