These Boards Are Slowing Down...

Original post by ChrissynRicky

Is it b/c we're coming to the end of '05 and approaching the Holiday Season?

or...are we all just stressed/tired/etc.

I've noticed this too. I know that I am starting to get really busy with work and need to focus. It's sad because I used to love to lurk on 05 and see what everyone is up to. Now, so many of the 05 ladies are gone.



I hope that dont happen to us

Re: These Boards Are Slowing Down...

I definitely have been feeling that it's been slow lately.

I think there are a few reasons.

#1: It is coming upon holidays and things do get nutty

#2: I haven't seen to many 'i just got engaged' excitement. I got engaged during the holiday season last year, so I anticipate after Christmas we will have more 'friends'

#3: I think we are, as a group, in a weird place. Hollie has her invites out, mine are coming in, I had a shower, some are coming, but we also have people who are so far away still!

#4: 2005 Board is slowing down (ETC), and they were a HUUUUUUGE group. Tons of gals.

And this is my personal reason:
I am kinda tired of the wedding planning- done with the major stuff and focusing on the details. And I feel like I know what I want at this point and that there is just so many times I can say 'Go See George At Signature!' or 'SilverFox was great' or the 'Floral Terrace rocked' before I get tired of it....

I think once we get Hollie married we will get excited about seeing pics and going through all that stuff.

Well said-I couldn't agree more. The 05 board seems like it doesn't move at all, I hope that doesn't happen to us!

I did notice that there are a lot of early 2006 brides, and late 2006 brides, but not as many mid 2006 brides posting right now...im sure your right, after the holidays we should have a few new girls, and with weddings actually happening, it will get exciting around here again

Yup, the last of us are getting married. There's a ton of Nov brides and a few Dec brides.

I think once we're into 2006, there will be SO much activity on here. I know that personally, I'm at a strange point, with the big things done. I'm just so nervous at this point, I don't post a lot.

Lisa,

I feel like my wedding is a group effort!

I know that I am also at a weird place... my wedding is soon and I am so tired right now. I definitely plan to stick around and help out the rest of the 06 brides, especially since you've all been so helpful to me.

I also agree that we are in a transitional period right now. The first of the 06 brides are up! I suspect that we'll have a whole slew of new brides towards the end of the year, and again at Valentine's day.

Re: These Boards Are Slowing Down...

I agree, I think it's because most people have all the major stuff out of the way right now.

And anyone who gets engaged over the holidays or Valentine's Day will be more than likely planning 2007 or 2008 weddings because a lot of places are booked for 2006 at this point.

Re: These Boards Are Slowing Down...

I agree, even more so in the past few days...I don't want to see any fights though, like some girls were saying! If anything, let's all make up some crazy fun polls and questions! I'll start!!

Re: These Boards Are Slowing Down...

I'm kinda at a strange point right in the planning- I'm done with all the big things, but scared to start on the details or the DIY things b/c I've been so indecisive lately!
