30 days and I feel so unprepared. I have so many things I feel not in control of. Is this normal.

    Do you have your:
    Marriage license?
    Officiant?
    Venue?Caterer?Seating/tables? Bathrooms?
    If so, you have everything to “need”. Why do you feel unprepared with?

    I think it's normal to feel overwhelmed and anxious.

    Have you made yourself a list of things left to do? It might help to calm your nerves and begin to make baby steps towards getting things done.

    If there are things that literally are wholly out of your control (weather, etc) then all you can do is remind yourself that you can only take action on things within your control, and the other things you just have to breathe through. Plus, don't forget, no one knows exactly how something should have gone except you!

    It is the details like decorating the venue, my friend is doing my flowers so it is hard for me to hand it off and allow someone else to have control of it.

    You're not alone! My wedding is now less than a month away and I find myself stressing about table numbers, placecards, writing vows, etc. This week I also was panicking about not finding a hair and makeup vendor. That got resolved (I think). It's a lot when you look at the length of the to-do list, but ... a month is also a good amount of time when you take it piece by piece. Confident it will all come together!

    Take a deep breath and let it out. As a bride you have to decide what’s more important the decorations or you getting to marry the man of your dreams. Trust me we all have those thoughts but sometimes we have to take a step back and realize the things we think are super important won’t matter 5-10 years from now.
