Hi fellow wedding planners! I got engaged in October of 2019 and our wedding is in July 2020. We have a budget of $20k, which I thought was plenty until I actually started pricing things.

Hi fellow wedding planners!

I got engaged in October of 2019 and our wedding is in July 2020. We have a budget of $20k, which I thought was plenty until I actually started pricing things. My family lives overseas, and I don't have any close friends in the area, so I'm mostly on my own to plan this wedding and it's been causing me a lot of anxiety. Usually I can "sweat it out" (that's what got me through college), but the past few months the anxiety has been keeping me up at night. Any advice on anxiety-management?

Oh that's only 4.5 hours. I think for the kind of DJ you're looking for you might be able to find one that is a little cheaper than $1k.

Make sure you have someone to talk with. Even if it’s a Skype call with your mom, or someone you care about will work wonders.
Making lists helps some people.
If you’re one of these, make a list of everything you want for your wedding and then sit down and talk about what you really NEED, and what would be nice extras to have. Sometimes we need to daydream first and then pull our selves back on the ground to avoid anxiety, depression, anger and a host of other negative emotions.My mom has one saying about parties: “No one knows what you planned for, they only see what you accomplished.”And then remember that all of this is just a celebration of your love and a great introduction to your life as a married couple!
