10 months to go! Feeling impatient :(

Sassenach1743 · August 2012

Hi ladies,

As of today I have 10 months until my wedding on June 8th, 2013. My fiance and I are really excited and so far all our planning has been going smoothly. We have our venue/ caterers and our photographers booked. I just found my dress a couple weeks ago (on my birthday) and will be ordering it soon. My Mom and my best friend (MOH) are both really involved in all the planning with me, they are amazingly helpful and I am actually really enjoying my planning process.

But I'm feeling impatient. It's like I hit a wall every few weeks where I feel like I can't really do much more at this point in time and I'm just eagerly awaiting my next checklist item. And yesterday I was feeling depressed that it's not coming sooner... We got engaged in May and somehow I wish we were having the wedding in November (within 6 months) rather than next June (one year). Even though I know we made the right decision to choose June. We have plenty of time and it's easier on our out of town guests to plan for next June instead of this November. I guess I'm just feeling impatient. Do any of you have feelings/days like this?

just wondering...

Yes, it's normal to be impatient but I promise it WILL go quickly. I didn't believe people when they said it would go quickly at the start of my 16 months engagement but here I am at 2 and a half months left.

Just take it day by day.

"like"

Yes, OP. I got a little impatient waiting for ours too :) But it was nice to spread out the planning and not get overwhelmed. There are definite pros to giving yourself some extra time to plan your wedding.

Just enjoy those moments of nothingness..... I had the same thoughts a few months ago and now that we are closing in on 1 month it has all picked up again. The last two months have flown by!

There's always a lot at the beginning and a lot at the end.
For our 7 month engagement, the beginning and the end ran too close to get impatient.

I feel this way! I am very obsessive about every detail and have been using the summer break from classes as a chance to do as many of my DIY projects as possible. At this point we have venue, photog, DJ, florist, dress, engagement shoot done, ring bearer pillows made, invites printed and all materials bought, and so many other small details and projects finished. Every other day I want to do something else cause I'm so eager to plan and make everything perfect. We're getting married in April so 8 months away and I know once classes start it'll fly by but I have to keep reminding myself that once its all over I'll miss wedding planning so make the best of it!

I hit some walls too. I gave myself a year to plan and found myself wanting to do more and more. You just have to take the time to enjoy being engaged because once the wedding is over, it's not about you two anymore. Now that I'm {cringe} three weeks away, I'm feeling anxious about a lot of silly things. So enjoy the lack of "to-do" while you can
