What made it seem most "real" for you?

Alicia, on June 25, 2019 at 4:40 PM Posted in Planning 0 41
Invitations went out in the mail today!! Eeek!!!
It's so easy to get caught up in the stress of planning, but then moments like this happen that you're just struck by the reality of this amazing and exciting thing happening!!! Another moment this happened for me was at my first dress fitting when I got to see my dress fit my body correctly for the first time!
What are your "this is really happening!!" moments?

    Honestly, nothing so far haha. I'm 67 days out and it still feels so far away. I got the feels when I tried on my dress with my jewelry and shoes, but I still have to pick out a veil.

    First it was booking the venue, then getting my dress, and I'll probably feel the same way when we send out invitations.

    But really I don't think it will be until I walk down the aisle haha Smiley xd

    Sameeee. I'm guessing it'll hit me the day of. Sending invites didn't hit me like I thought it would!

    For me was booking the church. After so many date changes, to me the church meant it was happening.

    It doesn't feel real for me, but going to my first dress fitting last week helped a little bit. I think it'll hit me more when we send out our invitations! I have our invitations at home already but am waiting til January to send them.

    I sent out mine yesterday!! We had a 3 month meeting with our venue this weekend and when I walked in and started planning the ceremony I had a WOW moment 🥰 They’re few and far between for me but that was a big one!

    A lot of things.... actually I have felt emotional and brought to (happy) tears many times thinking about getting married (I am marrying the man of my dreams). We talked with our caterer a day ago and I got teary eyed just thinking about our wedding. But what is making it most real for me, is I have a countdown board that I change every morning and each day our wedding day is getting closer, we are now only 46 days out!

    I'm still waiting for that feeling. I guess I felt a tiny surge booking the venue. But trying on dresses didn't do it for me. I'm actually a bit disappointed but I'm sure the closer I get to the wedding, the more real it will seem.
