Figured I get this to you girlies now since I am not sure when I will be able to later:

What makes you nervous or stressed about your wedding? Is it your budget? The actual day of? The RH? Your Mother or FMIL?Rain? Snow? Flowers? And how are you dealing?

Just a side note though: No matter how nervous or stressed you are, it will come together in the end! I promise!

Mine is the budget. It kills me. Like I always say, all i see is $$ flash before my eyes. and the other thing is my momzilla. She can be so pushy at times. For instance, she wanted her MOB dress to be same color as the BM dresses! Why would she want that? She claims she picked the color first, but I beg to differ. So I told her absolutely not and she was so pushy and pissy that I actually had to block her out mentally.

If you weren't for you guys, I think I would go Crazy... I am trying very hard not to go bald before my wedding....I may rip my hair out!

OH.. and i'm worried about gifts.

I don't mean to sound shallow but we all are hoping we make back at least half of what we are spending.
My BFFE ( ) was married last July and you know what she got from about 10 of her FH's fam..... cards and a prayer.

I'm not saying i want people to give me hundreds of dollars but a prayer? REALLY?

ANOTHER one of my friends was married 2 years ago and didn't get ANYTHING from one of her friends.

LoL ohhh no, a prayer, those people would need a prayer because I'd be pissed. Like you said not to sound shallow but come on people we aren't living in the stone age, every1 knows what weddings go for these days and most of all you should know what the right thing to do is when you go to a wedding. My girlfriend invited a doctor (surgeon) and he gave her this huge dish!???? What the heck was that?? and to make it even worse was that she had to lug the huge thing around. lol

Re: QOTD: What makes you nervous or stressed about your wedding?

Honestly, I have had so much familial drama over the past couple years as well as the passing of my last two living grandparents. So I absolutely refuse to stress too much over this wedding. I am blessed that my parents are covering the entire wedding and that my dad is letting me have any wedding that I want (he said it could have even been in the city but I didn't want to inconvenience my guests). I am going to be in Florida in medical school for the ten months leading up to the wedding so it won't be easy planning from there so I want to get most of it done now before I move. I really plan on just enjoying all the planning and not letting anything get to me. I am just so happy that I'm having the wedding of my dreams (and marrying my best friend) with my family and closest friends present and I could not be happier.

Re: QOTD: What makes you nervous or stressed about your wedding?

Where do I start?
If the sky is blue, he can't just leave it at that, it's light blue/dark blue, etc.
He can't speak using an 'inside voice' he is so loud even with hearing aids.
My last interaction with him didn't go so well and I had to leave. I will not tollerate being spoken to the way he was speaking/attacking me.
IDK where my FH came from.

I can so tell you're a teacher by 'using your inside voice'!

I am nervous about money, like everyone else, I also am nervous that my dad will try to come to my wedding..I know that sounds weird but it's life for me.

Re: QOTD: What makes you nervous or stressed about your wedding?

I am nervous about:

putting on extra weight before the wedding and not getting toned

and

making it PERFECT (which I know is not realistic) but I don't want to look back and realized that I didn't do something I want. I have about 2 dozen lists to help make sure this doesnt happen lol
