Ditto! And FH and I got into a BIG fight yesterday. Turns out him and his mommy decided that 10 more people need to be invited. So my guests are 35 including co-workers, friends and family and his are 100...is this fair?
Should I go down to 25 to make room for all his family members so that he can come up to 110? I want to hurt him sometimes...in a loving way, of course!
Cannot wait until the wedding is over...sad, but true!

Oh boy...the neverending, evergrowing guest list. Such a pain.

I think I'm getting scared of not having it all done and not pulling it together the day of. I would love to have a coordinator so I could enjoy my day, but I don't have the extra money. I would have to pay for it, FH does not understand the pressure and the amount of work. Oh well, I just keep hoping everything will get done...one thing at a time right?! Currently working on programs despite the fact I have not a clue how its going to shake down!

I feel the same as you guys. I feel like for every one thing I do the list grows by 5! It is so frustrating.

And if one more person tells me that I shouldn't waste my time trying to push FH to do tasks and just do it myself I am going to scream. I mean if I hear one more time 'there is always a women behind every man' or 'why don't you just do it yourself'! UH! I need help here and I need to lean on FH. He may not be as fast as me or care about the little details but he gets it done. Another pair of hands is all I ask for.

I am excited for the day but some of the things this month are just killing me. Next month will be funner, I hope!

Your FH should be there to help you... why are people telling you to just do it yourself? So you can have more stress? It doesn't make any sence. I hope your FH is helping you ;)

I have a day-of-coordinator, but having her won't help me survive the next six weeks! We met with her this week and my to-do list got longer.

I'm stressed out of my head between planning the wedding, enormous pressures at work, my business unit at work just being sold to another company (huge job and $ uncertainty), multiple very serious family health situations...and let's not forget how hard it is to lose the last 5 lbs whilst stress eating!

Thank you very much but he really doesn't. If I ask him he says he will do it then after the fourth (no I am not exaggerating) time I remind him he does it. And it's not a nagging, he admits he is lazy and needs reminders! Either that or he gives sme a whole song and dance about he could care less if _____ is done. It is hard sometimes really. He has gotten better but I am so sick of reminding him to do everything.

He is just not very into the wedding thing but the way I see it there a a bunch of things in life that we don't necessarily love doing but we do it to make others happy or to achieve some sort of goal. I am trying to get him to see that. He better...witht he stress of the next 2 months I will have a total breakdown if he doesn't start picking up some slack!

Realize also that his mother ALWAYS does EVERYTHING for him! She sticks up for both her sons laziness and if they don't do something she does it.

Thank you for taking my back and letting me vent a bit. This whole process is a bit hard and overwelming. On a side note...I got my shell placecards done this weekend!
