Couples getting married on January 4, 2020

Daughter got married mid-January last year. I don't remember her "getting annoyed," but I do remember after a fairly calm, quiet summer, the pace of activities REALLY picked up from September until the wedding day and she was super busy when suddenly all the details became much more pressing as the date got closer. Staying organized helped her a lot -- she had Google docs & a calendar she shared access to with all of us who needed to know/could be helpful. Good luck!

Congratulations, and welcome to WW! There's so much stuff to take care of, so I feel your pain

Welcome to the WeddingWire community, Nadazia!

I'm sorry to hear you're a little worried about your upcoming wedding.

Is there something in particular, which is making you feel under pressure time wise?

View Quoted Comment Mostly I am getting everything together as far as reception and wedding also booking and handling payments. I felt as if everything was one sided my family was willing to pay for everything and I only have a small family of maybe 10 while he has over 100 family members that wanted to pay NOTHING. It’s been stressful planning alone and making sure I handle everything with complaints from his side of the family constantly and telling us to wait and push the date to when THEY are ready. Telling me it seems rushed and that getting married right now would be crazy and I’d just rather not deal with it.

I'm sorry to hear that. That is a lot for one person to handle. Sending you a big e-hug

If your in-laws are not contributing financially, they can't dictate what you do or don't do with your wedding. When they come to you with suggestions and speaking about changing the date, be kind but firm with them.

Don't forget to lean on your SO for support. If you're not getting the support you need, sit down together and talk it out.
