Twenty Days To Go!!!!

Samantha, on September 22, 2019 at 1:42 PM Posted in Planning 0 16
We have 20 days to go until the BIG DAY! Needless to say I am definitely getting even more nervous and having major butterflies about the big day. I'm not nervous marrying him, I'm nervous and anxious about being the center of attention. I also worry that our guests won't have a good time. Are there any other brides feeling this way as the big day approaches?

    Date twin! I’m not nervous, I’m extra stressed. I really don’t have reason to be. Everything is done. But I can’t help but feel like there’s still something I should be doing!

    Haha, I completely get that! I was definitely feeling extra stressed last week and then I realized everything is basically done and I needed to calm down. Then I checked the count down and my nerves kicked in. I'm definitely trying to just remain calm and realize everything will be ok, but I still have major butterflies.

    Same. Getting married the same day and I am starting to lose my mind. We realized how many little things we still have to do and I keep freaking out. Can someone else just make all the last minute decisions please?

    I'm excited to marry my FH, but boy am I wishing we had eloped right about now. His mom is being passive aggressive af and we're both exhausted of her.

    I 100% agree with you!!! I wish now we had eloped, there has been so much stress leading up to this day and now I'm just a ball of nerves.
    Hopefully your FH mom will back off, she shouldn't be making things difficult for you especially so close to the wedding.

    Tell me about it!! Mine's 26 days away and I poster recently the same question. I've felt so so overwhelmed these last couple of days (since the 30 day countdown) that I've barely paid attention to myself. I still have so much to do and so much to pay and I haven't finished anything or heard back from my last dress fitting!! I haven't bought my accesories or shoes or accomodated our wedding night or anything!!!! I'm going insane!!! Right now I'm jumping a much needed nap my body is aching and begging me for right now just to have a cup of black coffee and continue finishing things. You are not alone, trust me!!! I'm excited as my FH but we're both kind of nervous as well. But I know it'll all be worth it at the end ❣ For every bride passing through this!!! It'll be our moment with our FH's and we'll enjoy everything however it comes 🥰🥰

    About 3 weeks before the wedding ( 5 month engagement) my father declared that I had moved to the planet of smiling happiness. Nothing disturbed or rattled me, all of a sudden. If the venue had burned down, I would likely have said, oh dear, and started calling around for someplace, no nerves. I reached the point where I knew everything was done and checked twice . And I had been to dozens of weddings where some thing always went wrong, and nobody much noticed, or cared. Like major exams, when you know everything you ever will, and a relaxing day before, and night of good sleep, matters more than cramming. Just let things all fall into place.

    Yes, I definitely noticed an increase in my nerves and stress levels once the count down hit 30 days as well. I hope you're able to relax soon and don't feel bad about having to rest or take a nap. Let yourself rest a bit so you don't get sick. I'm sure everything will work out and your day wi be absolutely beautiful!! 💕

    I can totally relate. I’m still working on a few DIYs but I feel so stressed and nervous for that day. I’m also nervous about being the center of attention. I’m not the best in front of crowds. A part of me wishes we would have just had a court house wedding. I really hope all this stress and planning pays off.

    Relax!.. At this point I'm sure you have triple checked everything and the little things that needs to be done will get done.. Remember to sleep!

    Yes! Every time FH sees me stressing out or getting anxious he says "We could've gone to the courthouse" and I really wish we would have. I'm sure your wedding is going to be absolutely beautiful!
