How is every one dealing with stress?
I am two weeks away and in the past few days I completely understand how people lose weight in the couple of weeks prior to wedding. I find myself waking up I'm te middle of the night making lists in my head. Never knew what people were talking about until now . I feel like the only people who would understand ate you ladies since we are all going through this around the same time. So- any suggestions on how to relax, de stress and enjoy the last couple of weeks prior to your wedding? Thank you in advance :)

Re: How is every one dealing with stress?
I'm a very high stress person on a regular day so I made several lists. It was the only way to put my mind at ease. Following up with vendors two weeks before also helped tremendously.And...not gonna lie, wine. LOL. I would relax with a glass of wine after work while I worked on little wedding projects.
My suggestion...do an itinerary for the day. Once I spoke to my photographer and he broke down his schedule and timeline for the day, I was able to plug in the timing for everything else and it's been a huge help!

Re: How is every one dealing with stress?
I know how you feel! I just want to scream, lol. I usually just try and relax with a glass of wine while do anything wedding related or recruit my BM's to help. Also, I wasn't going to do a DOC but just decided like 5 minutes ago to contact some to see if they are available because I can not be this stressed the day of the wedding!

Every diet.. esp wedding diet should have room for at least one can of light beer or one glass of wine in order for it to be successful!! in my opinion anyway... Good Luck girls.. just remember that the pay off of all this stress will be amazing!! And you can remind me of my workds when my time comes adn I have no nails left :)

I'm freaking out over our minimum. We're literally 2 people away from our 100 person minimum and we invited 155 people. The RSVP date is October 15 and I'm really trying hard not to jump the gun and annoy people about whether they're coming.

There's alway room for wine- especially now I find myself not even trying to eat less but I can't stomached food like I regularly can. So true what they say about the weight falling off- trust me diet or not the stress will make u lose

I haven't felt super stressed yet but you guys are making me nervous! As for ways to destress, try doing yoga or meditating (there are some good aps you can download for guided meditation) and wine is always good too!

Aww...hang in there ladies! I must admit, I had to break open a bottle of Blue Moon several times during the planning process.Everything is going to turn out great for all of you. You'll be really shocked at how much everything falls in place the day of. Things that was stressing me out were all the minut details like the favors, place card holders, etc. I really didn't notice any of these things during the wedding. I was consumed with just spending time with family and friends.
