Wedding is in 5 days, and I'm filled with so much anxiety.

RaylaSan, on February 8, 2021 at 7:31 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 5

Gosh, my wedding's in 5 days, and I'm looking forward to it so much, but I'm so anxiety filled it's crazy! I've been going left and right making my final payments, contacting all my vendors, makings lists, talking to the bridal party members, etc.

I just can't help, but feel so worried, that something's gonna explode in my face. That someone isn't gonna do their job properly. I still have so much to do, so much to finish, and it doesn't help that I'm scared and excited outta my mind that things are getting incredibly overwhelming.


I don't have a wedding planner to help me out (since I couldn't afford one), but I'm hoping for the best.


I'm not expecting things to go perfectly, I just don't want things to go out of order, or for things to not go as scheduled.


Anybody know any good breathing techniques because all this anxiety is making me nauseous.

    I think I will be the same way on the week of my wedding. I have my girlfriends coming to stay with me the week of my wedding since my FH won't be at home. I don't have any real advice for you except do some self care. Take a nice long bubble bath, put a face mask on, lotion up and try your best to breath 🤣☺️

    Every bride I have ever known has either been peaceful and not disturbed
    by anything, even though there were more things she wanted to do. Or they have been an anxious wreck. No middle ground.
    Unexpectedly, for me, I moved to the planet of smiling happiness ( as my Dad called it) about 2 weeks before my wedding.Nothing bothered me. The venue could have burned down, O would not have cried. Luckily for all, everything just began to fall in place, exactly as planned, with minimal help from anyone. No coordinator. Like a visit from an old friend where everything is just like you left off. 🙃As people who have worked with me in crises before know, I sing silly songs from childhood, ar recite childish poetry or favorite book passages, when I am in a spin, and need to calm down. It is impossible to be upset when singing Teddy Bears' Picnic, or repeating the philosophy of Winnie the Pooh, or reciting The Cat in the Hat.

    Already have it set in your mind that things here and there may go wrong. There is no perfect wedding but there is the perfect wedding for you.

    You just have to consign yourself to the fact that not everything is going to be perfect and that is OK the wedding is about the love that you share with your significant other the rest of it is just pomp. Now with that said just try to take some deep breath‘s the day will be here before you know it and it’s going to go by so very fast! And if all else fails try aromatherapy or a glass of wine to calm day of nerves

    Stop.

    Take a deep breath.

    PUT YOUR SHOULDERS DOWN.

    Unclench that jaw.

    Now let out that breath.

    Do it again.

    AGAIN.

    Ok, you'll be fine. Put on something that helps you focus/get busy work done, and prioritize.

    You can do this!
