Re: I've Reached my Breaking Point!

You're going to be fine!!!! For the most part, these are pretty small details and not having one of them done will not ruin your wonderful wedding!!!! We all want to be perfect with every little thing, so I understand your frustration, but take it one thing at a time and whatever gets done gets done (you should probably start with the vendor payments though since that's kind of big!!). It's probably easier said than done, but sit back and relax for the next 2 weeks and you'll see that all of your hard work was well worth it and you will enjoy your day!!! If everything just has to get done, use your bridal party to help!!

good luck, and don't stress- it will be wonderful!!!!

All of these little details you are worried about not having time for or not caring about anymore are FLUFF -- they do not matter one tiny little bit as far as your amazing wedding day goes, and NO ONE will notice their absence AT ALL!!!!!

You've already done everything you need to do as far as planning your wedding goes. Just take a deep breath and try to enjoy the rest of your time between now and your special day & everything will be special and wonderful!!!!!!!!

BIG HUGS!!!!!!!!!!

you don't need all those DIYs, do what you can do.

As for your garter... I got a beautiful one at AC Moore and Sandy's shoes has really pretty ones. Just go buy one. Don't take the chance.

Re: I've Reached my Breaking Point!

what did you want to do for table numbers? i plan to make my own (pictures of my dog) and have samples in my album and can make yours if you want - FM me - i will be happy to help!!!!

Re: I've Reached my Breaking Point!

Oh I feel the same way! I just finished my menu and programs last week and I am a week after you!

I havent finished my table numbers, and it looks like I might just be scratching that idea bc I just dont have the time or patience to do them.

I got my unity candle from Michaels. They have a coupon in the Sunday paper, and if you sign up to their emails, you get a 50% off coupon mailed to you.

Good luck and try not to stress. If you want help with your menus, let me know! I made my own. I could design it for you if you want to print them.

If you want help, I can volunteer to make a unity candle and some of the other stuff for you.

Re: I've Reached my Breaking Point!

im 'lazy' too... nothing seems to get done... and i dont have the ambition for it altho i do have the time.... so that makes me extra lazy!!

like you, its the little things i keep focusing on.... the things people prob wouldnt notice all that much... and those are the things stressing me out.... like seriously, what ever happened to a simple wedding with simple details, no themes, etc etc .... do they even exist anymore when we have sites out there like this one nudging us to do more and more and more?

Re: I've Reached my Breaking Point!

thanks girls...I Really appreciate your kindness to help....I am actually doing my dog as our numbers too! I printed them at work (laser color printer!!!) but I still need to assemble with my special 'color themed' cardstock...uggh (I know I did this to myself)...and I know what unity candle I want..and spoke with the Fox Hollow to just use their menu..but really, you all made me so happy that you would help a fellow bride! I just have ZERO motivation to go get this stuff after work!

I agree that it is entirely my fault- actually, no it's LIW's fault! Everyone else did this to me with their great personalized wedding touches!! j/k

OMG! I feel your pain! Mine is the day before yours, the last day of school, and I also have to pack up my classroom. I am making the kids do most of it though. I am in the same boat as you with the list of **** to do and the people that are driving me crazy with last minute guests! I am going insane! I am so happy (not really) that I am not alone!!!!

We are going to Hawaii too! We're leaving monday morning. Can't wait to get the h-e-l-l out of here! FM me if you need to vent.. .I'm right there with you!

Re: I've Reached my Breaking Point!

Oh man, I felt exactly like that when I was married in April. Completely normal.

It means you have too much left on your list and not enough, reliable hands to help you out. Start cutting out the little things that are nice to have but not must haves. Maybe Dad can help with the pretzels instead? You are going to get through it
and be happy with the drink in sunny Hawaii.

Best Wishes!
