Is anyone finding it hard

to do wedding planning with life in the way!!

I'm getting married in 10 months and while FH is a huge help (groomzilla even), in the past two months ive had to get a new car (end of lease), am moving apartments and have at least 4 business trips.

I'm flipping out that I'm never going to get anything done -

Does anyone else feel the same way?

Yes! For me it's my job plus my own laziness that get in the way of my planning!

Everything will be fine in the end. I procrastinated so much, and then Jan came around and I basically booked all my vendors in 4 weeks, so it is possible as long as you have done a little research.

I am finding it extremely hard to do anything, $$$ is my biggest issue. But I am also lazy and procastinating (sp?) It seems like nobody else is in wedding mode either so nobody is really helping me with anything!!!!!!!

We should have just had a dual wedding D!!!

I think it would have made it a heck of a lot easier!

Re: Is anyone finding it hard

Yeah $$$$$ is always an issue! But we got our tax returns already so that helped bunches. We have been slow at work latley so I have been sneaking some internet time in, but all it does is make me crazy! I think I know what I want but then I see something else. We have changed our favors 4 times.

It'll all get done but I feel the NONE else is into the wedding thing. The only person who is into planning is my FMIL, she is great. She is keeping me on track. God bless my mom she listens but doesn't offer too much advice. This formal wedding stuff is foreign to her.

Good luck girls it'll all get done. We are always here to help if noone else is!

Try having a 13 y.o, 8 y.o., 9-month old, full-time job, a house and a FH that works ridiculous hours!! On top of that all of my family lives out of state! Luckily my hall came with most of my vendors and I have 2 amazing friends. It is what it is!!!

Do the best you can and don't sweat the small stuff!

im a student and i have to wait for FH to give money for things and he doesnt get that there is an urgency for certain things ..other than that we have a large bridal party trying to get them together is a headache and then i have school trying to keep up my GPA...it can become so overwhelming

YES! I also had to get a new car, since my lease was up..I wish that money down was still in my account!

And after work, it's always something..

YEEEEEEEES I am sooo with you on that. It seems like everytime I plan on doing something there is something else that is more important that I need to do!

Re: Is anyone finding it hard

I'm a HUGE procrastinator!!!! I can thank my mom for that wonderful gift!!!!!

It will get better soon....just make a list and try not to pressure youself into doing too much at once. You have 10 months left......just spread it all out and it will all work out!
