I'm freaking out all over the place, but quitely. Like I'm at work, but all I can do is wedding stuff, and I'm going to sleep and waking up wedding, and not sleeping well at all, and my house is a giant mess from my shower stuff which I haven't put away and I feel like throwing up pretty much all of the time. If it's not one thing it's another. AND PEOPLE KEEP ON GIVING ME MORE PEOPLE TO INVITE!!!

Is this normal 32 days before? If so, what can I do to relax?

Take a deep breath and exhale only through your nose. Then do it again and exhale through your nose in short burts.
I know it sounds silly but it does slow your heartrate down.

My other suggestion (though knowing how organized you seem to be - I'm sure it's done) is to write every single thing you have to do between now and the wedding down. Allow yourself quiet time to make sure you've got everything. Then slot in times to complete it (allowing for a few things to pop up at the end)

then delegate as much as you can. People want to help

yes - you are normal!!!

I got married 1 month ago. It is normal what u r going thru. I hate to tell u but it got even more stressful as the wedding got closer! I found out people r crazy! try to relax, I got a massage, and also bought this great tea, it was called 'sleepytime'. It made me giggle and then sleep. It is sold in the herbal tea section of the supermarket. Try not to stress. I know easier said then done. If u need to talk, feel free to FM mail me. Hope this helps.
