What was the most stressful part of planning?

My most stressful moment so far was my venue. Due to different situations popping up we weren't able to just book our venue in advance. We requested soooo many proposals and got at least 20 back saying our date was booked we finally found one and booked it immediately. It was so overwhelming I almost pushed my wedding date back by a week but now that it's all booked i feel relieved!

I believe getting addresses of guests and assembling invites was the most stressful so far....

Told by many people it is the worst.

After the initial budget and how much things really cost stress, my biggest stressed was my dress. I ordered it in July '16. Got the size they said, told them before I ordered it I wanted to change the zipper to a corset. My dress finally comes in I go to pick it up (2 hours away from my house) and the dress is falling off me, I express my concern with alterations but told don't worry. Take it home, store manager calls and asks me to come back and meet with the seamstress, we all decide the dress needs to be ordered 3 sizes smaller, 3! New dress comes in, has a huge stain on it. Ordered again finally it's right. Start alterations rearrange my schedule to go pick up my dress and get a call from the seamstress that all the beading fell off when she moved an appliqué and it's not going to be ready. I wait 2 more weeks get stuck in traffic, 1 hour late for appointment but. I finally have my dress and it's perfect, hopefully I unexpectedly lost 10 pounds since my last fitting, so my dress drama might not be over!

We have nothing but my dress. No venue, caterer, photographer, nothing, and my nerves are shot!

So far, it's probably been mostly money related. Little things have annoyed me, though. Like FH taking care of the cake. I can say I haven't really been stressed about anything yet. I'm sure it's coming.

I haven't been stressed at all cause I started planning ahead and taking it one task at a time. I never wanted to stress because this is suppose to be a happy and fun time ...planning your wedding can be stressful but try not to make it that way. However, the only issues I've had thus far is people automatically inviting themselves... and They just kindly won't get an invite...we are inviting those who we wish to invite and that's that...

Also, I see a lot of brides on here that try to please others or care what others think to much. Please don't do that. Plan what u want, how u want, the way u want.

Seating chart was the worst.

I think the guest list. You can't invite everyone!! So someone is going to get upset.. that's hard.

I had people I don't talk to anymore asking me if they're my bridesmaid... and I had to tell them no haha

Little awkward

The cost is the most stressful part for me but I know it will all work out but seeing how much for one single day i am spending is overwhelming

The most stressful part would be dealing with guest regarding the guest list and advising them children is not allowed, no you cannot bring additional guests. People need to understand that weddings cost and cost a lot. My wedding is in less than 2 months. Ugh

Most stressful thing for me is probably just scheduling. I need major dental work and trying to figure out how to fit it in my schedule in the next month and hoping I can pay for it, or delaying and possibly ending up in worse pain or needing emergency dental too close to the wedding. I know it sounds stupid but it's consuming me right now. Ugh.

Letting people know it was adults only.

@TamraTexas that's not stupid at all. People who can afford it have personal assistants for a reason and dental work is serious. I hope it works out.

I had a year-and-a-half engagement and started planning pretty much right away. For the most part, I really enjoyed planning and things went smooth. I would say that the top things (as I'm thinking back) that upset me or stressed me out most were: 1. Buying my dress too soon and in a size I thought I would be and having to sell it, and buy a new gown 2. Communication with my wedding coordinator at the venue was pretty stressful initially....there would be long periods where she didn't respond, meetings that were cancelled or forgotten about but in the end she did a great job the day of the wedding...thank God! 3. Hair and makeup trials: It took a couple of trials with different people, but in the end I was very happy 4. Due to couples breaking up after RSVPing as two, my final counts were off a bit but in the end that really didn't matter as it was just a few people and a couple of them brought a plus one. Other than that I guess I am pretty lucky. I am dealing with some post-wedding issues with a vendor....but keeping my chin up that it all works out! :+)

Maintaining current guest list and saying no to FMIL. My parents have been fantastic (there was initial drama about the dress I chose but we all realized it looked fantastic and was worth the cost. Only asked a few people for their guest list.

Caterer for sure. Our venue has 4 preferred and all were initially unavailable or terrible to work with. Once we told the venue, they kicked them into shape!

We also have a random family friend who believes her entire family is invited (save the dates aren’t even out yet.) Her son has made multiple comments on my Facebook posts about “counting down to my wedding” and we were never intending to invite him. So that’s been weird and stressful this week!

For me it was the guest list. I didn't want anyone there! But FH insisted that he invite his parents
