i know what you mean, and I've been married for a year now! I'm wondering when the feeling will fade... haha
Great! Then you can be my wedding planner!!! ![]()
I have 9 months to go and I'm so burned out on it after planning a previous wedding that resulted in a broken engagement. All I've done so far is book my photographer. *sigh* Can't I just wave a magic wand and have it all done?
LOL there needs to be a wedding "Big Sister" program where all the wifies suffering from PTWS help out stressed out brides.
But what about the excitement of being married? New adventures, new plans, etc?
ps: I feel like that hilarious woman who makes videos of herself reading from wedding boards is totally reading this one.
i thought about going into the wedding planning business.........i'm sure tons of newly married ladies feel that way though.
and to wintersprincess, if you do need help searching for vendors i would love to help.
anyone planning a wedding in Chicago? hahahaha.
emmkae - searching for vendors, choosing flowers, finding a venue, booking the DJ, .... *sigh* by the time I leave work, I just don't have the energy for this!
Trust me, if I had the cash, I would hire a wedding planner and be done with it.
True, it is exciting now that we are married......but the day of our wedding was so much fun and having all the people you care about in one place.....nothing can top that (IMO)....and then leaving for a week on our honeymoon. now things are back to normal and changing my name was such a huge pain in the butt ....maybe even more so for me because I was reluctant about changing it but ultimately i decided not to go through family drama.
what if married life was that once you get married, you go off on this fantastic honeymoon for the rest of your life.........and that's it. you just spend your life traveling from one romantic place to the next. hahahahaha. i actually was telling my fiance this on our honeymoon, and he was like "I think there would be no unobtainable bachelors at that point". ha.
Oh I definitely hear you! I totally have PTWS! Luckily for me, I had my best friends wedding 2 months after my wedding and I was the DOC for another girl I met on weddingbee the month after that! It definitely helped w/the PTWS. However, I still find myself reading weddingbee all the time. I can't seem to get weddings out of my system. I guess it's because I just love to organize and I love everything about weddings.
I have recently started getting into finding deals on buying things at CVS for free. It has definitely helped a bit w/the PTWS. Maybe you should find some type of hobby and maybe you won't feel so blue. :)
I think I know what you mean.
My husband and I were officially engaged in March and our wedding was in August. In order to graduate I decided to take 24 credit hours this summer along with planning a totally outdoor wedding at my parents home. I finished my last final the day before I got married- it was wild. I loved planning my wedding, like many of you. Now that I am married- I don't know what to do with myself. I'm done with school for the moment, working, but that's it! I have all this time- and I've gotten into this habit of looking at weddingbee everyday and plotting ideas out. I'm not sure how to focus this new energy, and kids are waay out of the question at this point :)
Wedding planning takes up so much of your time... when it's over I think it's hard to adjust to having time to use for other things.
Yeah I think it was one of the few things I had to do but enjoyed (for the most part). I'm taking a few information technology classes but its definitely nothing fun. i'd love to take a few design courses when I'm done with these classes I'm taking now. Anyways I'm getting off the subject.......I have started looking more at thenest.com.......hahaha. I feel like thenest.com is a way for those of us dealing with PTWS to find something new to put our focus on yet I still keep visiting theknot and weddingbee and brides.com.
Oh, I feel you 100%. It's been 2 + months since my wedding, and the feelings in the first few weeks after the wedding were the most intense. I felt like I had nothing to distract me from the dullness of the 9 to 5... I have started blogging a bit (http://parentheticalthoughts.wordpress.com) and looking at decisions I'd put off during my year of wedding planning (e.g. what next steps to take with my career; whether or not to move).
My advice: try some new hobbies, plan a party, spend time with friends/family, etc. And enjoy spending time with your husband - congratulations!

I have major post wedding blues.......I feel overly eager to help any bride to be that I cross paths with here on wedding bee, just cause I miss the excitement of GETTING married.........and now that I am married I feel like I've just been "Benched".
