How are you staying calm while wedding planning?

I talked to my friends, worked out and tried to allow others to help as much as possible which is difficult when you are a type A. I actually only had one minor freak out and it was towards the end of planning so that was good. My husband would also keep reminding me that at the end of the day the details don't matter as long as we end up married and happy.

From the start of our planning (mainly me) was looking into major research and online shopping to be organized. I just knew its hard to keep calm as my husbans back then. He got frustrated easily cause he had no idea what has to go through the planning stages.

As per work and personal life coming into play, i just carried on with both knowing the payments have to be made one way or the other.

I'm really not sure where you're going with this post, to be honest. Of course lots of people have busy lives.

I delegate! It has helped so much being able to give my wedding party different tasks that get them involved and allow me to relax and do a little less.

View quoted message Other brides have lives too. I’ve seen posts from single mothers, lawyers, doctors, social workers, teachers and several other busy people getting married. We all have stuff to worry about. You’re not alone! Weddings are stressful

I don’t. Haha. I probably have a breakdown every 2 weeks or so. “I’m forgetting something” “we’re gonna be rushed” “something’s gonna go wrong” “we shouldn’t be paying this much for a wedding” etc... It’s not very fun. It doesn’t help that FH started a new business last year and we have no idea what next year is going to bring. Needless to say... sleeping is only a sometimes thing. Lol

I love wedding planning, but I have major anxiety about being the center of attention.

By remembering that at the end of the day, the thing that matters is the marriage, not the wedding. And by having a life and other things to worry about.

Also home face mask Sunday nights! I'm a pretty calm person in general, so haven't felt stressed out yet. I think we've paced ourselves enough to get everything done in time.

At home face masks and hot showers! It is my time for quiet and to wind down! It has become a part of my sunday night routine before I start the work week.
