Wedding mess!

Jen, on May 24, 2018 at 09:49 Posted in Before the wedding 0 10

We are officially 16 days and 5 hours out... but who's counting?! AND MY APARTMENT IS A MESS!!!! There are boxes, linens, clothing, literally EVERYWHERE! Thankfully we will be able to drop off some of these items to our wedding coordinator next week to clean up some of this disaster before the big day. It all feels so cluttered and it's giving me anxiety. I've steamed the robes for the girls and don't want them to get wrinkled in the closet, as we are running out of room in there, so I have them hanging from our storage unit... smack dab in the middle of our hallway and kitchen.

I cleaned up prior to taking these photos but should have left it as is so you all can see the disaster we have been living in. The FH says that a messy house shows that we are getting stuff done, which is true, but makes me anxious lol

You don't even want to see our closet lol...

Anybody else feeling overly cluttered at the moment???

    We would have felt the same but we live in an apartment so my in-laws stored a lot of stuff for us instead.

    Not so much my own house but my parent's house in London, specifically my old room, will look like a wedding tornado at some point. It's kind of great having it separate so I won't be able to see the mess everyday and my parents don't use my old room for anything, except for wedding storage lol.

    We were!! We just did a huge “spring cleaning” over the long weekend because my bachelorette party is this weekend and I needed our spare room to be a spare room again and a clean house!

    It doesn't look so bad, but I get it!

    I luckily have a storage room in our basement where I've been able to tuck stuff but some of it has creeped out into our living room as it's stuff I still need to do and don't want to forget about. I glare at it every time I walk by.

    That was nice of them to offer up some of their space for your items. Yes, thankfully it is only for another 2 weeks then we can work on getting rid of this stuff!

    I was incredibly lucky that I got to store all of my wedding stuff at my mom's and MIL's places since we lived out of province. I felt bad for taking so much of their spaces, but they didn't mind at the time. They also mentioned how relieved they were to have their space back afterwards though, lol.

    You look incredibly organized though and while the clutter is a bit of a pain sometimes, just know that it is only temporary (and for a good cause too Smiley winking )

    Omg.. I honestly can't wait to post all of this stuff on the wedding buy and sell on facebook haha. I hate clutter and living in an apartment while planning a wedding has caused a lot of clutter!

    Thankfully we are super organized so it isn't as bad as it could be. Everything inside of those boxes are in individual baggies so that each items goes to its appropriate place haha. I'm a bit of a spaz.

    AHHHH so close - you got this lady! Look how organized you are, that's amazing. I bet you'll feel a 100% better once you can pass some of the load off to your co-ordinator

    Just keep trucking, breathe and think about how amazing the day will be (and the day after when you don't have to worry about any of it anymore)!

    We are waiting for our coordinator to finish renos at their new office space this weekend so that we can bring everything there. Hopefully by Monday or Tuesday we will have everything out of the apartment and at her office. *fingers crossed*

    Maybe see if there's a safe storage place at your venue where you can drop off things ahead of time? i don't know if it'll help, but i would think it's worth a try.
    most of my things are in my sister's old closet.
