@cherrycoke: OMG I am looking forward to that day and my wedding is 6 months away.
I think if anything I would have my planner do all of it instead of just partial but I wanted the experience so I am just trying to enjoy the journey of research, negiotiating, contracts and everything else.
YES!!! I am still obessesed with all things wedding, but for other people... not me! lol I finally have my brain back. What is it about planning your wedding that makes you lose your sanity?!
@jjmomma: I think it's just wanting everything to go smoothly and everyone to have a good time. But now we can just relax and decide what's best for US :)
Omg, I am. People keep asking if I miss the wedding or planning. Heck no! I am happily married and even more happy that its over. it was a huge stressor.
I am but part of me is a little sad. I'm happy to have my life back and be stress free but I do miss all of the excitement and attention (I'm an only child, don't judge me, lol). We're leaving for our HM in a week from tomorrow so that's keeping me occupied but I can't help but get a little depressed when I watch the wedding shows. I knew I would be one of those crazies so I don't know why I'm surprised, lol. On a positive note, I can now make non wedding related purchases! Haven't done that in a looooong time.
Omg! I can't wait for it all or be over! Planning two weddings is just insane!
@UpstateCait: I'm sooo excited to be able to buy things that aren't wedding related!!
I might be weird, but I MISS the planning. It was such a big part of my life, I feel a little sad now that it's over and done with.
@jaguar: Definitely weird! Just kidding :) I can see how some people could miss it, but I'm just not a good planner so I love not having to worry about it anymore.
@cherrycoke: hahaha, it's ok, I get that. ;)
I don't miss the stress of trying to keep people happy all the time. THAT I can definitely do without!!
Yes! I just told my mom that I am so happy we chose the 1st and that it is now behind us.
I don't miss the stress of a long to-do list, but I do miss the planning a bit. I liked the design aspect of it, developing a vision and making it come to life. And I thoroughly enjoyed working with our vendors. They are such wonderful people, and it's a little sad seeing them pass through my life. But, in the end, I am glad to have regular life back now. I am getting to spend a lot more relaxing time with Mr. LK and teen LK, and I so <3 my guys.
I am really glad it is over. Now my honeynmoon is over, too, and I am thinking, what am I going to do with myself? Oh wait, there is always the thank you cards! There are a lot of hobbies i pushed to the side, so now I guess I get to get back to those. Last night when we got back from our honeymoon, I kind of had this sad feeling because now it is time to get back to real life.
I am very happy and I know there is always a huge letdown after you build up to something for so long and then it is over before you know it.
Congrats to all of you!
those last few weeks for me were nuts, and I am definitely glad for me that the day has come and gone... I LOVED being engaged and wedding planning, but I defniintely underestimated how overwhelming it was to have ALL of our family and friends in town at once... but I also agree with @CaitMarae- I am going to miss the attention of being a bride, and flipping through wedding magazines... My little sister caught the bouquet, so hopefully there will me more fun planning for her soon!
I'm so happy. It was no secret that the planning process wasn't easy for me. I feel such relief to have my life back to normal.
Oh I'm soooo jealous! I am trying to enjoy this week and not be too stressed, but am also looking forward to a new chapter in my life!
I am SO glad planning is over! The day was perfect (in my eyes) and now I get all this free time back!
Time to move on to Home Improvement projects and Holiday Fun! :)
@cherrycoke:Dude, I totally feel this way. So happy to not have all the details I was hoping would come together perfectly floating around in my head anymore! Not to mention no thinking about what still needs to be paid for! Ahhhhh. Sweet relief!
Plus I'm married!!!!! Yaaaaaaay!
Yes, I am sooo relieved, but I have a feeling I'm gonna be looking for other things to keep me busy after our at home reception which is this coming Saturday.
Kind of sad but its good to be back to normal! Leaving for our honeymoon in 3 days!
i am SO happy that the planning is over - at least, the stress of it all, and the juggling acts. But i LOVED the actual wedding party - i would do that over and over again - seriously best day ever. Now, 2 months later, we finally get to plan our honeymoon - for february. So something to look forward to still :)
The wedding was great, the honeymoon was awesome, and everything went by way too fast. I am soooooo (not secretly) relieved that it is all done!!
Ask me in 2 days :)
I am super relieved that the planing is just about over. Today is tux pick ups and tomorrow the rehearsal and dinner and then our long awaited day Saturday.
I know that it will go by so fast, and it will be a blur, and I am a little sad that it will have come and gone, but glad to finally be on the other side!
YES! I loved planning, don't get me wrong, but I still have a messy house due to honeymoon laundry, wedding paperwork, and wedding gifts that needs to be cleaned up. Once that is done I will feel really relieved!
Absolutely!! I LOVED our wedding but I would not plan it again! :) So relieved and happy it's over. Love married life even more than engaged life.
My husband was tearful the day we left to fly home after the wedding, sad that the wedding was over, sad to say goodbye to our friends and family who had flown in the for the wedding. He was also upset that he would forget all the fun and special things that we did with our guests the week of our wedding and spent time on the plane trying to write down everything that happened every day. I was a tiny bit sad, but really, I could not relate. I was fairly ELATED to be married and MAJORLY RELIEVED that all the work and planning was over! I was soooo glad to have the wedding behind us and to be heading for the Carribean for some relaxation! The wedding was wonderful, and it was such a unique experience to have his family and friends together with my family and friends... BUT, man was it stressful. No drama or anything, just stressful because the wedding was held 2000+ miles from our home and planned in about 14 weeks, so there were a lot of things that had to be done at the last minute.
Glad all you other bees are enjoying married life and good luck to those whose weddings are right around the corner!
I thought I'd be sad, but I'm not! I love that it's over and we're married. Life is back to normal.
I am so HAPPY! Our wedding was beautiful, and we have just now finally took back our house from wedding plan stuff being EVERYWHERE! and all the gifts have homes as of yesterday :) Now, we are trying to get back into the swing of things, and we love being married :)
I miss the planning and excitement but don't miss the 'family' stress.
I'm pleased it's over - I'm not much of a social person, so it was a bit daunting to have to be so social to so many folks I haven't seen in a while. It was a fun time, though.
I didn't FEEL stressed, but I guess my body was a bit. I started having stomach troubles on the wedding night, and then spent the evening after the wedding in the ER getting antibiotics via IV for a stomach bug (not food poisoning, just a bad virus). We were leaving for our honeymoon the next morning, so they gave me four perscriptions to help me during the travel there. The ride there SUCKED (we flew from Louisiana to Jamaica), but I felt better after a couple of days. Once the honeymoon was over, we spent two days cleaning the wedding out of the house. Once that was done and we were back to work, I was happy to be back to regular life.
I am relieved the planning aspect is over. I am sad that the actual wedding is over. Now, I don't know what to do with myself. I have no appointments or phone calls to make. I don't have to keep checking my calendar 24/7 or check my to-do list. I have been sleeping better, and not having nightmares about the wedding. My thank you cards were put in the mail yesterday, so when DH and I get back from our honeymoon, I won't have that to deal with.
I'm glad to don't have to worry about planning anymore, but I feel a little lost at the same time. Just been trying to adjust to married and non-wedding planning life in the last several weeks.
I was so relieved to get back to a normal routine after the wedding and honeymoon. It's so nice to not have something wedding related to worry about!
Yup, I have no post-wedding sadness at all (other than wishing the day had been longer)! :) Thank god it's over.
I hear you. It was a wonderful day, but I'm so thrilled that it's all over!
We were both so happy when the last wedding detail was taken care of a few days before the wedding. Now that all is said and done w/the wedding and honeymoon, we are soooooooooooooo happy to have this thing called "free time" back! I had fun, everything turned out better than expected, but now we have time to play Arkham City, I can pick up my photography hobby again, and we can just relax without feeling like there is something else we should be doing. Of course, there are the thank you cards, but we're taking our time with those.
FREEDOM!
@cherrycoke: I. Am. Stoked. Life may resume it's regularly scheduled programming. And I can stop throwing money at people. And I have a HUSBAND. 8D

Don't get me wrong, our big day was perfect and it went by sooo quickly, that I wish we could repeat it....but most of me is completely HAPPY that there is no more planning to do! Whew! :) Anyone else feeling this way or am I the only one?
