Re: May 2009 brides - freaking out yet?
I definaly have to agree I am beginning to feel like we are running out of time! I have gotten alot done , but as many of you ladies have said the lists are EVERYWHERE, one thing gets crossed off and another gets added. During this planning process I am also throwing my sister a baby shower. OMG!!
But i know it will all work out be beautiful , I CANT WAIT FOR THE HONEY MOON SO I CAN SLEEP!!lol
good luck ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Re: May 2009 brides - freaking out yet?
I wasn't, but now I am. Thanks.
LOL, kidding. I'm freaking in one way only . . . I want to finalize everything, meaning do my 'last check' with vendors NOW and check them off as booked, checked, schooled and finalized, not just booked . . . . I feel like there will be too much to do at the end, and I'm not looking forward to that last few weeks before the big day, but, it will all come off fine!

Re: May 2009 brides - freaking out yet?
I hear ya! I'm getting married in 3 months and i was so wrapped up in the holidays that I took a 'break' from the planning so to speak. And now that's it's Jan, I'm freaking b/c I have SOOOO much more to do.
I just started adding all the things I need to do in an excel sheet. I organized it by month, like what's my priorty for Jan, Feb, March and so on. And I am just checking each task off as I complete it. I got some great advice from other brides about this. I know---a spreadsheet sounds really anal but it's the only way I can keep track and keep my sanity!
Look at it this way, hundreds and hundreds of brides go through this. in the end it will ALL get done.
in the meantime, just concentrate on the priorities and do one thing at a time. and maybe make a few cocktails for yourself

I had a melt down the other day too, but both my FH and dad ( separately, and jokingly but not ) said as only as we have a priest and some beer things will turn out fine and everyone will be happy. The funny thing is they might be right lol.

totally freaking out now. it wakes me up in the middle of the night, and then i start thinking of all the little details that need to get done. I was on top of all the major stuff early on, but i feel like its the little things that are getting me so overwhelmed now!!
