    Yep. You are not alone. You just have to give yourself a couple days off to reset your brain.

    Oh no! I'm sorry you feel that way! So far my planning has been pretty stress free... is there anything in particular that is stressing you out? I might be able to help or at least give you advice.

    Yes! I'm there now. I hate my dress, our best man backed out, my MIL perfers his ex to me, Kay jewelers messed up my ring, it's one thing after another. Vegas anyone? Only 218 days to go

    I’ve been frustrated and my FH has helped me through it. I’m sure as our date gets closer it will be more stressful, but my FH and I are a team and he has taken on so much responsibility with planning. Have you shared your frustration with him?

    Unfortuantely, everything is too expensive. I found a nice venue where we can now DIY, but I am not too crafty.

    Yes, a few times. The last 3 months before my wedding I didn't care about a single wedding thing so my husband had to do a lot.

    Yes, 100%. My fiancé is my support system though and knows how to calm me down. Everything is working out for the better.

    Stressing because expensive. But would never call it off and elope because then all the money spent was for nothing.

    We are having a private ceremony with a big reception right after. It's been a lot less stressful!

    We decided to just do the courthouse. We are having a big celebration 2 days later with everyone. I said I was done doing all of this mumbo jumbo and went the route I originally wanted.

    Haha yep I posted earlier about the pop up weddings. Sounds awesome right about now but I know it’s not what I really want.

    Absolutely, you just have to step away sometimes and take a break.

    I think most people feel like this at some point in the process, I know I did! Hang in there, friend!

    I'm feeling the exact same way! Only 239 days to go, and too much money has been spent to elope lol
