Am I Nuts?

Lately I've started having a weird, semi wedding-related problem.  I was going though my old magazines cutting out recipes, and found some Thanksgiving recipes and advice.  Halfway through an article about centerpieces, I started picturing making thanksgiving dinner for my FI and our families as a married couple, and started crying.  They were happy tears, but now it's happening for anything that makes me think of 'our future', from Christmas related pins on pinterest, to barbecue sauce commercials (thinking about Christmas time together, and future fourth of July parties).  Has this happened to anyone else? Is it something I should be concerned about?  Any opinions or thoughts are welcome, it's really starting to weird me out, because I'm not usually a sentimental person.

    I can't say that I've experienced this.  H and I lived 500+ miles apart the first 2.5 years we dated so I was pretty sentimental about things then as the brief bits of time we had together were few and far between, but other than that, no sentimental tears.

    I haven't watched this show since, but Say Yes to the Dress made me cry when I was engaged, even though I ordered my dress online on Etsy and think most of the people on that show are ridiculous.

    I tear up at sappy love stories and Say Yes to the Dress almost always makes me cry, although I agree completely with balletdawn.  I guess for me it's the happiness breaking through the stress?  We are doing a budget DIY wedding, and it's been tough so the random outbursts of tears (mostly happy ones!) seem like a way for the overwhelming LIST to give way a bit and let me remember why we are doing this in the first place.

    I don't think you're nuts. I have less than two months to go til my wedding and when I hear a song about marriage I tear up. When I think about walking down the aisle, I tear up. When I think about moving in together, I tear up.
    Honestly, I think it's partially the birth control (though that is sooo unromantic lol) that's made me more emotional overall, but the closer I get to the wedding, the more I seem to get like this. I don't think it's terribly unusual.
