Am i the only one overwhelmed?!

I consider myself a planner and I've been planning so many details, but I get so overwhelmed thinking about everything I need to do and all the time I don't have to do it in lol.

I consider myself a planner and I've been planning so many details, but I get so overwhelmed thinking about everything I need to do and all the time I don't have to do it in lol. On top of that, my wonderful fiance is far from a planner...he's more of a free spirit so my sense of urgency and his lack of it...smh. I guess this is why we compliment each other so well. I wouldn't change it for anything.

PLUS...I feel like I;m getting on my friend's nerves talking about the wedding all the time. I need an outlet!!!

Please tell me I'm not alone

    Not 100% digital. But I was thinking instead of RSVP cards to send back everyone could just RSVP on our site. A friend did it for their wedding and it seemed to work out pretty well for them, but, it was much smaller than ours will be and I don't know how well it really worked behind the scenes.

    Yes, I've heard of a lot of people doing the online RSVP thing. I've decided to offer that as an option on our website. But we have a lot of older guests, and I have no idea how tech savvy they are, so I'm also doing a paper RSVP card for them to send back. But I did find an invitation suite that had the card included in the price of the invites, so I didn't have to pay extra for that.

    If I can find an option like that I wouldn't mind doing both. I just don't want it to be a major expense. But that would definitely be the best of both worlds to accommodate everyone.

    Trust me you are not alone! We all love to come back to this site and maybe some others and comment and help each other out! Just remember to breathe!! Then start again or walk away (sometimes you need to). I have 14 months until mine and I feel like I haven't done anything. So if you need any help let me know! We are all here if you need help, advice, and to vent. I would like to add that I have been annoying my friends and family too and my FH is so chill about everything and goes with the flow. Smiley xd Another thing is that checklist on WW is really awesome! I have that plus my book that has all contracts, another checklist, and ideas in it. This thing helps keep me organized SO much!

    You’re not alone! WW will let you talk to likeminded people so you’re not boring family members to tears. They love us but they really don’t care about our centerpieces ideas(that we’ve redone for the third time) or our table numbers. This is stuff no one gives a crap about outside of Wedding World.
    It’s ok to be overwhelmed, it’s a lot of time and money to pour into one day!
