had a really long talk with Fiance and he’s commented on how stressed i have become over being such a control freak about everything. he was telling me that everything will be perfect and that i really just need to enjoy this process as i only get to do it once! so rather than stressing, i need to really have fun with it. obviously i agree with what he’s said, but because i only get to do it once, i want everything to be done properly, to 110%, and for our day to be the day i’ve always envisioned. so if i had to choose the most stressful part of planning, it would be in this order:

1. budget (trying to have my dream wedding within our budget)

2. guests (size of wedding getting bigger!)

3. family’s wants vs our wants (super extended family attending vs small intimate, chinese customs vs western w/few customs)

how about you ladies? what’s been the most stressful part of your planning?

Without a doubt the most stressful part of planning a wedding was trying to make everyone happy. We were planning a semi-destination wedding and everyone had to travel. We spent so much time worrying about everyone else and that added a lot of stress!!  Second to that (or part of that) was dealing with husband’s family. We made lots of compromises on things on their behalf and they could have cared less!! They still had nothing but negativity coming out of their mouths!
