that feels like all these planning is so draining! I know I only got one thing booked so far, but there are so much to do and I feel like I have no time to do anything! I was never one of the girls that pictured and knew exactly what they want for their wedding since they are little... so I am totally clueless about things. I didn't even know I had to pick a color theme, until one of my BMs asked me what mine was!
FI and I really just wanted to be married, we are so tempted to just elope, but I know my mom will be so disappointed because I am her only daughter and she is looking forward to this.
I am not really having fun planning the wedding. Please let me know I am not alone on this.

Re: Am I the only one?...
No you are not. For a while I went through a stage that I didn't want to plan anything else. I think the thing that most frustrated me was the flowers. I couldn't decide on what I wanted so all planning stopped. I was drained and I didn't even want to think about it. I even had my first wedding nightmare. But I met with an awesome florist on Sat and I think I am back on track again. Don't worry we all go through it.

Re: Am I the only one?...
awww, thanks for the support girls! We just came back from signing with Duet, I really can't be happier or more confident about our decision to book them. That's two more things checked off my list (photo/video)!! There are also lots going on with my family, so I feel like I am being pulled toward a million directions and about to break down!
FI and I are buying my parents house, so there are tons to do for that, we would like to put our touches into the house so we'll start renovating soon. This is going to be a CRAZY year for us!

Re: Am I the only one?...
Not alone at all... i feel drained as well , i want it to be more fun, but everything stresses me out, not having the time to see vendors cause many wont meet on weekends stinks, and being out of state and having to go back forth to LI VERY OFTEN is really difficult!
I am glad i have the 06ers to get ideas from and to complain to! thanks girls!

Re: Am I the only one?...
you are soooooooo not alone!
this whole wedding thing is not as fun as i thought it would be, it has been one problem after another. my fh and I spent our first month of engagement not planning and it was the best month of my life. now wedding planning feels like a 24 hour 7 day a week anxiety attack.
all of a sudden i am supposed to turn into the expert wedding planner. The stuff would not be so hard to plan if they did not want so much money for every little thing.
you just have to realize that everything will be beautiful and even if u procrastinate a little, you will still be able to find all that you need.
so sorry you feel this way

I hear ya!! I didn't start planning till last month, which is two months after my engagement... oh man how I miss those two months!! Now it's none stop researching and meetings. I just want to be a MRS and enjoy being married to the man I love! This wedding is really more for our families than us.

Re: Am I the only one?...
I totally here ya, we just came back from Vegas last week and I was like we should have just got married there so all of this BullSh** could be avoided but my family would be disappointed. I guess taking the easier route in the long run would not be the right choice. I am slowly learing to enjoy things and just booked Photographer (Duet) yesterday so that has been the most exciting thing so far. More to come I guess. Good Luck and I am sure we all feel like that. That is why these boards are so popular...It's more like a RANT and we understand each other, that's why I am addicted to these boards LOL Good Luck!
