Re: i'm totally overwhelmed

take a deep breath! everything will be fine. do you have any thing that you can dole out to your wedding party? remember - that's what they're there for. make a list of what you have left to do or print one out from off here and figure out what is left. it really may not be as bad as you think it is.

I think this is great advice. And remember we are here for you. I did most of my planning without the help of the boards and realize how much better off I would have been if I know you guys existed.

Re: i'm totally overwhelmed

I am in a very similar situation, although my online class starts at the same time as my regular classes at the end of January. I am trying to get as much done as I can before the 24th. It's rough not having as much time as you would like....but it also seems like everything always falls into place. Good luck with everything!

Re: i'm totally overwhelmed

It gets worse...just kidding..it does get more hectic but as the months go on, you learn to deal MUCH better. Its funny I always saw all my friends..liw ones and others so crazied and then as it got closer to the wedding, they became calmer..I am praying for that calm...

Take deep breaths,,,remember your not superwoman, and it all WILL be fine.

It's crazy, but fun.

I love to think that the marriage is getting closer. I just hope that I won't strangle any family members before then.

Re: i'm totally overwhelmed

I think we have all felt like that!! I am feeling like that now.... I was REALLY overwhelmed at first, not knowing where to start, etc. But, once I got my major vendors books, I started to relax a little.. but now being under the six month mark, I am starting to panic again! I think we just have to make a list of all we have to do and check things off as we do it! Remember, you can't do it all at once! Babysteps!

Today we picked out the invitations, the tuxes, and bought some pew decorations at michaels half off! I feel a little accomplished today, but there are still tons to do!

Re: i'm totally overwhelmed

Aw! I feel the same way, I keep giving myself stomach aches bc I'm stressing so much. I start my classes at the end of Jan and finish up a week or so before the wedding. I feel like there isn't enough time to do anything either. Hang in there!! Somehow it will all work out.
