I know some people get the post-wedding blues... do you think you will be depressed or relieved when the wedding is over? Newlyweds, what has your experience been?
I am getting married in 4 days and I honestly can't wait for it to be over, it has been such a source of stress that I will enjoy it and be happy that day and then I think I will be really happy to get back to normal and relax with my husband. I don't think I will experience the sadness some people get because I can't wait to just relax about money, not feel compelled to starve myself to look good in a dress... yeah I can't wait.
What about you guys? Do you think you'll be happy or sad when it's over?

I think I am going to be very depressed once it's all over

I thought I was going to go into a state of depression...surprisingly I'm fine. I'm ready to move on and work on other things- like finding a job and fixing up our apartment.

Re: Stolen from NW's - Post-Wedding Blues
I felt the same way as you...I was really excited for it to be over, I was so stressed and I just wanted to have it all be done and get back to regular life...buuuuuuut of course obvs now I am all bummed out because I'm back to regular life. Like Britt said, I don't miss the planning at all but I do wish it wasn't over, it went by so fast and so did the honeymoon...I just wish it would have lasted a little longer (coz apparently almost 3 weeks wasn't enough for me).

Re: Stolen from NW's - Post-Wedding Blues
Honestly, I wanted to be done with the wedding, too. I have never cried more in my life than the month before the wedding. I was so stressed and I was seriously hating every single person I knew.
BUT, once it was over and I knew it was really over, I was still sad. The week after the cruise, I was really bummed out. I was probably making DH regret his decision to marry me! But as I said on the NW board, life gets in the way. We've been so busy with other things that I sorta snapped out of it. And also, our TTD shoot helped, too. It was my farewell to my wedding.

Re: Stolen from NW's - Post-Wedding Blues
ITA with the other NWs. I don't miss the stress or bleeding money, but it goes by in such a flash, I miss having that to look forward to. I've posted before about being sad about only getting to wear my dress once. I'm sure it gets better with time, but when you've dedicated a year+ of your life to planning an event and then its over, its kind of hard to re-adjust!
