Wedding excitement depleting, need a reboot

Im losing excitement b/c im missing my FH and my mom just keeps running her mouth constantly like it's her day. im SO fed up with the annoyance, it's driven me to tears- made worse with meghan & harry's wedding.

Just take a stroll during the days to get some fresh air. Its ok to say you don't want to talk about the plans if you are feeling the pressure.

You are not alone for sure, i went through the same with huband at the time which he complained most of the time. I just replied by telling him to do what im doing and taking care of the payments. That answer got him to shut up overall. Don't feel overwhelmed from the planning, just know you are doing good and come far towards your day. Just keep calm and keep simple tasks and agendas to complete and take time for yourself with hobbies.

I'm ready for it all to be over! This weekend I'm working on my centrepieces and I wish I had chosen something easier! I just want to be married! I have enjoyed the process, but now it's dragging on!

I'm a roller coaster too, my wedding is over a year away so somedays I'm hella unmotivated. I think once it gets closer, all I'll have is wedding on the brain!

I feel you on that, its definitely good to take breaks and just enjoy being engaged for a bit. My FH has been real nice about it, but I know he's lost interest in all the planning/wedding talk.

I know that feeling! Thats a good idea, I'm going to watch some wedding moves to help re light the fire, which movies did you watch?

Glad I'm not alone! I started focusing on doing other things, not consuming myself with some much wedding stuff!

I'm a total roller coaster... I'll go a week or two where it's "wedding wedding wedding" non stop... I'm on this site every day, constantly talking to brides... then I'll go 3 weeks without even thinking about it really...

I am also still 8 months out, so I feel like there are quite a few gaps between big decisions right now, and as the things like, bridal shower, bachelorette, creating decor, building favours, etc start happening, it will become more consistently exciting.

I find that taking time off from planning makes me excited to get back into it a few days later. Even with FH, I’ve been so into wedding talk that I’ve actively tried to tone it back and just enjoy being engaged for a bit.

When we moved from Ontario to BC I was done. I said I'm not planning anymore, it's too much, I can't do it...I was defeated, not motivation and I just did not care. It took a while, but I find that going through my wedding binder, looking at my venue pictures, looking at my photographers portfolio etc, that all lifts my spirits. Sometimes watching a movie, and tv show about weddings helps too. Just kind of re lights the fire and I get super excited again.

I’m in the same boat. I feel like I don’t care as much about planning anymore! I told my fiancé I’m passing him the torch lol honestly there’s so much to do and plan and you’re right it is expensive. I rather just have fun these last few months on not stress. I’m choosing to just roll with things now and not think about the wedding ALL the time. Soft ball started up and I’ve been busy at work so that helps! Even taking a break from my phone and wedding wire specifically really helps. I also had a girls night last weekend with my MOH and my bachelorette is next weekend so these are fun helpful ways to just relax and be happy!
