    I am just wondering why wedding planning is an addiction.  Before when I got engaged people would ask me when and I would be like oh, I don't know...........  I would look at a few things online and then move on.  But when I got serious, it's like something grabbed ahold of me and didn't let go.  I went on the Knot and would look around but when I found Wedding Bee, I didn't go anywhere else really.  This site has taken over my life, I am on it at work, risking my job, as soon as I get home, like all night.  I have not really watched tv for the last 4 months cuz I am too busy on here.  I have 4 more days till my at home reception and then I hope to be done with this addiction.


    I never dreamt of a wedding as a little girl, and NEVER thought this would be me picking out every little detail!!  I am just surprised about it all.  I hope I can wean myself off of here, so I can go about having a life with my new husband, lol......


    If you are already married, are you still addicted to this site?  Oh lord help me!

    I share the same sentiments. I never dreamed of a wedding when I was a little girl. But now, that's all I can think about. I think weddingbee should probably be my default homepage.

     

    I've gotten tons of support and ideas from other bees. This is such a wonderful community.

    I wouldn't say I'm addicted to planning my own wedding... but I'm definitely addicted to this site! (not sure why...maybe I'm addicted to helping/telling other people how to plan THEIR weddings? hahaha....)

      I know! I wasn't the girl who grew up, dreaming of her wedding. I didn't really start thinking about it until I was just out of college. I think the reason I am loving the planning is that I know that it will be the start of married life, a start of a new chapter for my FI and I. I just like what the day represents, so it's fun thinking about it :-).

    This past month I seem to have been hit with wedding fever. And the only prescription is more WEDDING BEE! Seriously though, it is taking over my brain. I can't stop thinking about weddings.

    i love weddingbee. i think its the community aspect of it. you get good opinions and can give honest advice and if you need to vent you can vent. i also like the wide range of things that there is to do. therer are fun threads, baby threads, family threads, and of course wedding threads. its a really good place to chill on the internet

    I had never even belonged to another forum. I signed on the first day and was hooked. As far as being addicted to weddings.... nope haha. Ready to be married and not plan another event for a while.

    Lurked here 8 months before I got engaged, became a member about 9 hours after FI proposed and 3 weeks later I donpt know how I used to get through the day without checking weddingbee 5 times a day. Still 15 month to go before the wedding and I'm addicted to wedding planning. The best addicton I've ever had :)

    I never really thought about my wedding until we actually got engaged.  I am addicted to the Bee though!! It's so nice to get ideas from other people and opinions before you do something you think is awesome..that might not be. :)

    Idk if I am addicted to weddings, but I definately love this site. I have never really done anything like this before. I think there are great people here that can give you good honest oppinions on everything even after you get married. I dont think that I will leave after the big day... Thats just me though.
