Hey Brides-To-Be! How have you been?! It’s been pretty quiet out there. What have you guys been up to? I’ve sorta lost the bridal fever, so I’m hoping you can help me by sharing your bridal happenings. I’m really really really interested in hearing about what you guys are going through and at what part of the planning stage you’re at.
Is everything peaceful out there in the land of brides? Or are you totally stressed out? Is this proving to be the happiest time of your life? Or is it more than you expected? How’s your fam handling everything? Are they super supportive? Have you been taking time for yourself?
The most important question of all: How are you and future hubby doing? As a matter of fact, I’d love to hear from the future hubbys too ladies, so please do me a favor and forward this post on to your fiance’ so we can talk, vent, dish or declare how perfect, crazy, scary, joyful, unbearable, exciting and calming things are. This is a community! Let’s share! We are the world! Lol.
No matter if you’ve just started planning or are near done, talk to me. I’m getting kind of lonely over here. I’m all up for a good story and I’d love to offer support if I can.
Can’t wait to read the comments!

Planning is getting crazy girl! Its just as stressful as it is exciting, I think. Its amazing that something can be both the best and worst experience at the same time.
Its funny how weddings bring out the true colors in people (myself included). Im finding that its difficult to draw the line between wanting what you want for your wedding day, and appearing like a huge brat. The tension is ultimately taking a toll on me and Im getting worked up at the drop of a hat – I need some yoga maybe? ha ha! But your posts have always been grounding and reminded me that im getting married into a new family (so who cares how crazy my family is) and better yet- Im starting my own family! Its funny to think you have to re-prioritize like that…. but you do. I have a new family now that has to come first and that is me and my future husband, right? Im really learning to put the blinders on and say “im not going to let you ruin this for me, Im officially ignoring you and I dont care what you have to say” lol.
Wow. A comment! Thanks for commenting ‘anonymous’. It certainly is funny how much you go through in the months of wedding planning. All of a sudden, you’re learning huge life lessons that you would think you already know by now. Family relations, self-love, core values, roles of responsibility, priorities… Sheesh! It’s a lot, but as I’m sure you already know, It’s completely worthwhile. I agree with the blinders. When I first started planning, I had blinders but somehow lost mid way. I began to care too much about what others thought. As soon as I realized what was going wrong, the blinders went on again. Girl, you have me getting emotional over here about the hurdles I went through. I’m so happy that all of that is over. My only advice (as if you asked for it) is to keep things simple. I can’t imagine still thinking about and paying for a wedding now in my newlywed months. I am sooo glad that part of my life is over!
Enjoy whatever moments you can however, because in the blink of an eye, it’s over!
Let me know if you have any specific issues or need help with anything!
