    So, I'm getting married THIS Saturday.  I imagined that I'd be a crazy person by now but things are just kind of normal.  VERY busy and hectic but I guess the last 5 weeks have also been busy and hectic so maybe it hasn't sunk in yet?  Don't get me wrong, I'm so so excited and can't wait for the big day but it doesn't feel real.  I'm still working (tomorrow is my last day) so maybe when I stop work and focus solely on the wedding it'll sink in more.  It's just weird!! It's like when it's your birthday but doesn't feel like your birthday.  

    Ok, totally rambling.  Just wondering if anyone else felt this way.

    I felt the same some days ago. Even on my wedding day I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be - the strange thing is: I couldn't sleep the nights AFTER the wedding - there were so many impressions in my head from this beautiful day...

    I did. I honestly never felt *not* normal. I felt busy, but in control, and the wedding day still even felt like a normal day (but with pretty outfits and our families around us!). Good luck to you, and may you continue to remain your calm!

    I had the same experience.  I was just mentioning in another post that in the week before the wedding I just said F it all.  I'd done everything I could do, so I just enjoyed the rest of the ride, it was nice.  I would get butterflies everyonce in awhile but I wasn't a basketcase like I assumed I would be.  If you're like me, it might not hit you until well after your honeymoon.  It took liiiiike... a month for me to believe that we did get married, that it wasn't a dream!

    Thanks for letting me know that I'm not alone.  I'm normally a pretty neurotic, type A person but i've been sort of calm all week.  I predicted a total melt down by now, but nope!  Like i said, I'm excited but relaxed.  This is new to me.  :0)

    I'm hoping that on the wedding day I feel calm but at the same time, over the top excited. Not sure that emotion exists but I hope it's possible!

    Don't worry! I thought all brides were supposed to be giddy and glowing the day before their wedding. I was so nervous about being in front of ppl that I didn't want my wedding day to come! I thought something was seriously wrong with me! I only slept 3 hours the night before and couldn't get to sleep on my wedding night because of all the things that went on.
