Wedding Dreams
I had my first wedding-related anxiety dream last night. I’m not sure I can survive a year of this!
Don’t try to read my mind, it’s scary in there.

I was sick of planning our wedding after 2 months (and done too) and was so glad we only waited about 5 months!
Good luck with the planning!

Hola, it’s Emily via Kim here.
Please accept my sympathies in the Bridal Anxiety department…I made it 10 months without too many sleepless nights, but everyone has them…in fact, reading about other people’s is a great stress reliever! I cannot recommend TheKnot.com and its local bride discussion boards enough…I found a lot of great ideas and laughs on there. Good luck!

Anxiety? I hear the guy you found is great so it can’t be that

Your crack me up. Here’s how I stayed sane during my wedding planning (sane being a very relative term!). I asked myself “what memories do I want to create? What will I be glad I spend the time/energy/money on, and what will fade away?”
Then I said : Screw the rest. I also said Screw It to family politics, with the exception of one issue, and I should have said Screw It and done what I wanted, cause that’s one of only TWO planning issues I would change. Non-planning issues: I wish I would have hugged my parents before I said my vows, I wish I would have had some posed shots with the family (mine are all candid).
And truly, it all fades away. I don’t remember the centerpieces, I was too busy trying to hold it together to hear the violinist as I walked down the aisle, and I have only a vague recollection of any of the food (including the cake!). I remember us making our vows, I remember the first dance like it was 5 minutes ago, I remember thinking the whole thing ended way too soon. I am so glad I made the choices and the memories I did, cause at the end of the day, that will be your wedding.

Found your blog through the knittyheads webring.
I had wedding nightmares while I was engaged too- mostly about the wedding plans not being finished. The first one was having to get married in a hotel room (not a ballroom, a hotel room), and trying to find a piano to have ceremony music. So basically, nothing planned. Every subsequent dream had more of the wedding planned out, and no wedding nightmares since getting married 2 years ago. Best wishes!
