I feel completely 100% the same at you, and I have 17 days left, I am finding it hard to light the fire under my tushy to get the last minute stuff done. My motto now is, oh well, if it doesn't get done, no one will notice
I felt that way a month after i got engaged...all we ever wanted to do was have a destination wedding with 20 of our closest friends and family... unfortunately... our closest friends and family came to be 130+ and some really important people said 100% they would not be there... soooo planning a wedding here was what we chose... I cant imagine how Ill feel with 10days left to go!
jtsing - LOL!!! That is the exact same thing I just told my Fiance last night! He smiled and said "I'm glad you finally figured that out"
With 45 days left, I do feel the same way. I'm ready. But I've felt this way for several months now. I want it to be here already but I want our day to go s-l-o-w!
Could not agree with you ladies more! I totally don't have the energy or desire to get another project done, but I know if I don't I will always think about how I should have done it....can't wait till 10/8/10 and a few days later on our honeymoon! It's coming so fast, but at the same time it can't come fast enough.
Ahhhhh...the honeymoon...I am going to sleep all day (which is sad, since the fiance will have other plans in mind).
My planning hasn't been stress free like I hoped, kind of a downer having a MIL to be, who works in the wedding industry. She 'thinks' she listens to us, but she really doesn't, she has fought us on every decision we have made...so been a bear! I am just happy I am still so in love w/ my FI, but I am taking a MONTH off of being around his mom after the wedding...actually might take off until Thanksgiving...LOL.
jtsing - I feel the same way but it's with my own mother! Taking a month off from her is a great idea...and I think my FI would agree.
My sister is getting married Saturday and I can't wait for it to be over. I planned/DIY-ed pretty much everything from invites to programs to decor. I am tired of glueing and painting and powerpointing and herding family that I could just scream. I told her that she won't see me for the remainder of the year at least...after her wedding on Saturday.
COMPLETELY AGREE. I'm 10 days out and I cannot wait to throw out my bridal magazines, inspiration pics, etc. I am SO sick of weddings and planning and all the drama that comes along with it.
Same here! I'm 25 days out and am ready for it to be O-V-E-R! I feel bad, I do want to enojoy this for the last 25 days, but UGH, I'm TIRED!
Couldn't agree more. I have to force myself to finish the escort cards and other stuff. I'm glad I'm almost done because I don't have the energy for it at all anymore.
26 days to go and I'm ready for it to be over. I really, really wish we were getting married in Vegas like we originally talked about. I'm not even having a big wedding (we'll be lucky if we even get 60 people) but since we're having the whole thing at a park, I have to take care of every single little detail, and I have no idea what the hell I'm even doing. I've never even planned a birthday party, how the heck am I supposed to do a wedding?
11 days out as well (Hey date twin!!) and I CANNOT wait for it to be the day of. I don't want the day to be over yet...just ALL the planning.
Just like you said...It's been a year of planning already, it's time to do this thing and get it over with! Lol.
I have so much to think about in the next week and a half, yet all I want to do is sleep (of course having a back injury for the past 6 months makes you want to do that all the time). I am hoping (and I know) these last few days will fly by.
I just want it to be the wedding day, enjoy what we have planned (it will be an awesome party!!) and be done with it. i
I was the exact same way with that much time. I just wanted to be married! I gave up on several projects that I had wanted to do all along and just adapted a carefree whatever goes attitude. At the same time, ENJOY these last few days as an engaged woman! Enjoy all the days leading up to the wedding because you will never have that time again! Savor every moment, write things down, take a LOT of pictures of the things you are doing leading up to the wedding and just relax - it will all be over soon!
I feel the exact same way. With 32 days to go I'm stressed and at this point wished that we would have eloped.
I felt that way!! I was excited and enjoyed the process but towards the end I just wanted to be DONE with planning.
My wedding was 2 weeks ago I was sooo happy this past weekend to nap and hang out and do absolutely nothing. It's nice to have my LIFE back!
Plus now I'm sure I'll have more creative little projects than I did before (just because I found so many cute things that could be used outside of weddings) but I don't have the stress of having to finish them a certain amount of time.
holtesl -I really am taking time away from the MIL, the lady is a lil crazy & I am not sure how much I can be around her from here on out...so better just in spurts...haha
Sounds like I'm not the only one stressing at the end. Like a few of you said, I'm not wishing it to be over, I just want the planning to be done...oh...and to top it all off, I woke up this morning with the largest pimple on my chin EVER (I get stress related pimples)! At least I finally convinced my future MIL that the rehearsal dinner is supposed to be a picnic...nothing fancy! She just wasn't getting it. 10 days to go and I can't wait!
I know how you feel, I was feeling that the last 2 weeks before my wedding. The day of you will be super excited though, and nothing should worry or bother you, just enjoy every minute of that special day!
Originally I hated how my bustle looked, but the day of, when it was time for my dress to be bustled i was just thinking to myself "F*** it! Its my wedding day, I'm not going to get upset over a freaking bustle" whereas a week before I was so worried about the bustle! haha. Funny how the mood suddenly switched.
8 days to go and now my stomach is killing me and I have this killer zit that won't go away!!! GRRrrrr...
I'm going to call you my date and pimple twin!!
I not only have 1 on my chin but 2!! Argh, these volcanos better be gone by next week.
I even pulled out the emergency clinque oxygen pimple remover stuff...so far it's helping, but not soon enough.
We have enough to stress over, we don't need pimples!!!!
yeh i felt that the second i got engaged.
I hate wedding planning, i enjoyed picking out things, but doing it myself, being completely under water and gasping for breaths of air...its stressful.
ready to just party and then go to mexico.
haha, looking forward to honeymoon more than wedding itself.
Should of just gotten married at the court house, nothing wrong with that!
Hey date twins! Yes, feeling the same way. Can't wait to be in Mexico. 9 days and counting to our honeymoon. I can't wait to have my living room back, right now it's buried in wedding stuff.
Turtlebride - what is this clinique pimple remover stuff?
7sevenj9 - I'm exicted to get my dining room back...and so is my FI. He's a chef and it's really hard to have nice meals w/o a dining room (not that we have any extra funds at the time to have nice meals with).
Oh...and to top it all off...I now have a bunch of canker sores in my mouth. When I get stressed, I get canker sores...I just can't get a break!
My wedding is the also the 25th with a little over 85 people. Here's how I describe wedding planning. It's like you bought a months supply of steak for all three meals a day. At first, it's a delicious steak! Then as time goes on it gets less delicious until it just becomes some crap you have to swallow. That's what wedding planning is. Less delicious everyday.
I personally can't wait for my wedding to be here and to get a jammin'! We're doing a quick and easy ceremony,(We don't want to bore the hell out of the guests.) and then we're drinkin' up!
LOL!!!!!!!! I love that, Stevie.Brooks. I'll have to tell that one to my FI.
wow, to holtesl and jtsing first 2 comments .... are u in my mind?!!!
i feel 110% exactly the same way. i didnt think it would be this way, and at first i was ready to become a freaking wedding planner. now if i had 2 words to describe how i feel i would say "OVER IT" me and FI both just want to get the wedding over with and go enjoy our honeymoon and go back to our normal, pre wedding planning life. it is sad that it feels this way :o( this is supposed to be the happiest days of our lives up until this point and it feels more like a pain in my rear. my big day is 19 days away and me and FI keep fantasizing about running away that day! lol
The wedding is now less than a week away and I am actually starting to settle down and realize that if it hasn't happened yet, it probably won't happen so I shouldn't stress about it. Obviously, there are still last minute things that have to be done, but I'm not stressing about the details anymore. I took this past weekend to sleep and calm myself down and bring myself back to reality. I highly recommend that all of you brides who are stressing out at the end take some time to yourselves the week before the wedding. For the first time in a month, I feel calm. A few days from now that might change...but for now...I feel very zen.

My wedding is now 11 days away and I am soooo ready for it to just be over. It's sad that today's tradition of large, extravagent weddings have caused people to just want to be done. When I started this journey over a year ago, I was super stoked and enjoying the process of planning. Now...I just want to be married and done with this wedding crap...and I'm having a small wedding with only 100 guests! Does anyone else feel this way, or is it just me?
