Anyone going to still be in school when you get married? Or are you in college and planning your wedding? I'm currently working full time Mon-Fri, part-time on the weekends, full time Graduate student at night, and.....planning my wedding! CrAzY??? haha

The man and I will both be in graduate school full time at the time of our wedding. Currently he is a time and a half student and i'm a full time student, and we both work steady M-F 8-5 jobs too. So we're busy. 
I should be graduating about a few weeks before the wedding. Can you say "Stressful"!
I in vet school and should graduate about two months before the wedding. I am also living in a different country than my fiance. I and I am about a 16 hour plane ride followed by a 5-7 hour drive away from my hometown where the wedding is going to be. Stress is an understatement at this point.
I'm in optometry school and am doing the long term distance thing as my fiance is in ND and I'm in OR. Not fun! Especially when I should be focusing in class, but am on here!
@TennisSML5 I FEEL you! I'm working and going to school full time :( it's so hard! It's like I have 3 full time jobs. I'll be done in May though are you done soon (I HOPE!) and when is your wedding -- hopefully not during final ;)
Does your FI have sympathy and try to help you out? Or does he act like you're a crazy person (mine does a mix of both)
Hahaha....Ireighard1....well let me just say its been interesting....I live in Southern NH and my FH (who is from MA) took a job in Houston a year and a half ago so we have been traveling back and fourth from MA to Houston for the past year and half but recently he moved up to Philly so the commute isn't as bad (So I hear ya jojoadin!!!). As for school we are both in graduate school. I'll be done (hopefully!) next May and the wedding is in July. He won't be done graduate school until December 2010. And he works full time also! So lets just say we are a very active couple haha!! Im glad we have a two year engagement, it cuts down on the stress bit!!
And jojoadin I too have a hard time focusing bc like you I am on this ALL the time! haha 
I graduated, but my FH has gone back to school. We're getting married on the break from his classes :)
I'm finishing up undergrad right now (May 23rd!!!) so I'll be out of school when we get married in spring 2010. It's nice to plan while in school, since I think my boss would fire me if I spent this much time planning during a real job!

sgarrison-me too!!! I'm also undergrad, Graduating soon this spring then going out into the real world. Maybe tying the knot next summer june or august. Kinda worried that I'll try to plan it during my first real job, so probably gonna have to get a wedding planner.
I got married when I still had one more year left of grad school. I have to say its not easy but I did it!
I'm an undergrad engineering student and my fiance's graduating this April! We're getting married in the fall after I graduate next year (yes, I'm planning my wedding while I'm still in school)... so technically I'll be done school, but I also have plans to do an MBA so I guess it's also just starting school.
I will be exactly half way through medical school when we get married. Hopefully my FH will be starting grad school a few months after the wedding! Planning during school is definitely distracting, undergrad would have been a lot easier for the multitasking, but it's working out. The hard part is that I have to take step one of my board exams about 4 weeks after the wedding, so no honeymoon for us! We're going somewhere for 2 nights and then I have to come back and hit the books. That's the part that's no good.

I'll be planning during my last (and busiest!!) year of undergrad and we'll get married a month after I graduate. FH will be starting his MBA program as soon as he graduates in May 2010 so he'll be working full time and going to school.
I am working full time and finishing up my last 10 hours of grad school currently. My Fiance and I picked our wedding date (3/27/10) so that I could have a few months out of school (finish at the end of June!) to plan before the wedding gets here.
I was ALREADY looking forward to finishing up my masters. Now I have yet another thing to countdown to after graduation... :D
I'm graduating with my BSN May 16th, and getting married June 27th. It seems like if I'm concentrating on school, I'm not doing anything for the wedding, and if I'm concentrating on the wedding, I'm not doing great in school...I need to find that happy medium. If this hadn't been posted near the weekend, I don't think I would have found it.

Hey Jojoadin, I'm in optometry school too! I'm getting married this May after my 1st year so I'll still have 3 years to go. My fiance proposed last May, a few weeks after we graduated from undergrad. Originally we wanted to get married in December, but we couldn't get the venue we wanted then which turned out to be a good thing. Planning a wedding in 6 months during my first semester of opt school would have been way too stressful!
I will be in my last year of med school when we get married, and he will be starting grad school shortly after I graduate.
I already have a bachelor's degree, but I'm doing a post-bachelors program to get my teaching certification. I still have another year left of school (including student teaching) after the wedding is over. I'm taking a full load of classes, have 2 different pre-student teaching practicums and work 15 hours a week right now! Ugh! The good thing is that I'm taking the summer off from school, so I'll have almost a whole month of just working (but no school) to finish up planning.
I did 1.5 out of my 2 year engagement while in college. Thankfully I had a two year engagement, so no worries :)
Well, I'm a year into a PhD program, and FH has justed started an MSc and still working as a consultant. So yeah, it's busy. But the bigger problem is the student budget, yikes!!!
I was working part time and in school part time while wedding planning and it was CRAZINESS! I graduated from college last May and got married 4 months later in September. We planned it so that we were both done with school by our wedding, and that's how it happened.
I'm a grad student. Studying, taking classes, and working in a lab definitely keep me busy...sometimes too busy to focus on wedding planning!

I'm planning my wedding during my last semester of law school. The wedding will be happening about a month and a half after I take the bar. Yikes!
I am graduating with my BA in Biology in May and getting married in June. Then I am entering a teaching credential program the following fall. So on top of classes and wedding planning, i am stressing about getting in the credential program (getting all the prereq's, tests, and paperwork done).
Paigee: I'm guessing that you voted for the Westie bee too!
I graduated last May (early) from undergrad and I'm planning on going back to grad school full time in August. Right now I feel like I'm working and going to school because I have no time off!
I am getting married in August, but am graduating in December. The reason for this is health insurance. I get dropped from my parents insurance on Dec. 31. If we would have waited until after I graduated I would have been a long time without insurance as we both wanted a summer wedding.

I'm in law school and getting married during the winter break of my 3L (final) year. This was the best time because my law school friends would be able to come, and during the next break its graduation and then bar exam- so not time then.
Planning a wedding during school is, well, time consuming. I don't need to spend all my time on sites like weddingbee looking for inspiration, because I already know what I want to do, but everything is just so damn pretty- I can't stop. It's like crack. Weddingbee=crack. Crack kills GPA's ladies and gentlemen. At some point though, around finals, I'll go through rebab aka study mode, and then relapse again.
such is the cycle of crack
I am currently a Bruin Bride. =o) I will be finishing my first yr of grad school, in summer studies doing my clinical hours while taking a week off to get married (as per the agreement with my faculty advisor). I tried to keep the whole 'wedding planning' under wraps while at school. But it is hard when you go to school with a bunch of ladies who see the ring and engage you in wedding talk.
It is a little hectic but we have a wedding planner helping us out, and my mom (who thrives on details and having an excuse to talk to anyone) is taking time to help too- So I delegate certain things to certain people...
On a separate note, I have already had two or three professors tell me it isn't ideal going to grad school and planning a wedding. But there is never a good time for anything in life right? You just have to live it! ...I am pretty sure those two or three profs will have a mouth load more to tell me anyways when we start trying to get pregnant toward the end of my grad studies. <sigh> oh well!
I am working on my Graduate degree in the evenings and working full-time while we wedding plan (I can't imagine also working on the weekends, eek!). My FI is working full-time but is part of a new start up so he is ALWAYS working. We hardly have any time to discuss details but we are tring our best. I am going to take the fall semester off since we are getting married in September, so I dont have a melt down!

I'm currently taking some classes in order to enroll in a full-time graduate program, and I should be finishing my last few prereqs the month I hope to get married (May 2010). After that, it will be full-time classes and internships for a few years. Planning wise, I am not taking enough classes at any given time for it to be an issue yet--but I also haven't been doing much actual planning. I think the toughest issue will be financial. It is difficult to justify saving and spending so much money on one day knowing that when it's over, my income will be significantly lower being back in school.
We both have our Bachelors but will be going back for our Masters after we get married.

I was done with BS but I was in MS program (half time) and working full time.
I think I would probably not taken any classes during the semester I got married if i had to do it again.
I am finishing law school while planning for the wedding. I will get married just over a week after I take the bar exam! I am pretty sure that the 'maids (also taking the bar) and I will make time for a spa day at some point in that week. 
Yes! My FI is currently in his first year of law school, and I am starting a graduate program in the fall that will be one year. Right now I am working and supporting him, and I'm pretty sure next year we will have to start with the loans. We won't get married until he is finished up law school (so not until 2011!!!), but at least I will have graduated from my program and will be working for another year before the big day. He proposed in August 2008, so it is going to be an almost 3-year engagement! It sucks!!
