Is it common?

9 months was when it hit me harder than usual too!! It’s common to feel that way at any point in wedding planning LOL
I personally knocked out a bunch of things after feeling the panic, which helped me feel REALLY good and way less panicky! I just recently felt that way again at the 6 month mark... maybe it’ll be every 3 months or so lol. Anyways, you’re totally normal!!

View Quoted Comment I appreciate that. I do feel like i figured out a bunch of decorating jdeas for the pavilion and made a huge decision about centerpieces that have been bothering me since day 1...but i feel like i need to sit down and do a bunch more post holidays.

Completely common! I freaked out at 9 months out and when my FH and I hit 90 days I freaked out again and I have been productive as ever since! haha. We're at 74 days out now and I'm finally relaxing. All of the big detailed stuff is handled and the small stuff is left.

I always said when I got engaged I was going to be a calm bride. However that day I had a panic attack. My bridesmaid keeps saying she's going to call me a bridezilla the week of...which on some notes i find amusing but others I'm trying not to be if people would pay attention and answer their messages *shrugs*

My FH and i sat down, probably the following day and figured out where we were financially and what vendors we needed to make sure we had the money for. I can say we are okay right now..and we both talked about..post holidays of course..putting money in to the account monthly for the wedding / honeymoon..which helped calm my crazy a bit.

I've been trying to stay as calm as possible. There were moments that I struggled with staying calm but those moments I did get upset I did it away from everyone because I didn't want them to see me as a bridezilla. My FSIL's, my FH and my sister have been great at keeping me calm when something goes wrong. I have pretty much accepted the fact that something is going to go wrong the day of the wedding; because I've been told something always does, but I am going to be my best to not be a bridezilla.

My wedding is 9/12/2020 and I literally just today had a freak out moment over everything left to do! I took a break from planning for a little while and now I feel like I’m drowning again!

My wedding isn’t even 9 months from when we got engaged!! You’re fine. I think any sort of freak out is normal when you’re planning a wedding, everyone just has it at a different time!

See..I'm not trying to be a bridezilla. I'm trying to do as much of it as I can by myself. But everyone tells me ask your bridal party or that's what the bridal party is for. In all honesty? The best man has been more helpful in some situations than the girls are right now..everyone has stuff going on so i get it but it's coming to the time where I'm going to need some help with things. (I haven't said this out loud yet) but my FH and I were talking about a jack and jill and because i'm trying to keep as much stress off of him as possible, i'm considering not doing that and telling my people I don't want a shower or whatever.

I'm having anxiety issues and I need to take a me day right now but holidays and everything it's kind of hard to do that...hoping soon. (Sorry to rant)

Yeah! I did the same thing! Once we got the big details figured out (location, dress, dj, photographer) i stopped doing any planning except looking for ideas every once in a while online. Now that we are 9 months away I feel like I shouldn't have stopped planning. But my FH is helping me a lot more than he was to begin with and that's taking some of the stress off of me..which is good.

In two days I will be 4 months out! The small "oh boy.." moments started at about a year out, so you're totally normal! We all are going to have amazing days though!!

I hope you do have an amazing day!

It WILL be amazing...It's just getting from now to then with all the things that have to get done that MAY kill me

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger right?? *thanks Kelly Clarkson lol*

Haha! That's completely true!

Date twins! I got a little nervous when I realized we were almost 9 months out as well... Thankfully we have all our vendors booked and sent out our STDs so we're in good shape, but it's totally normal to have a moment where you think, "Holy crap, where did the time go?!"

Yay Date twins!

We sent out our STD's in Early October I believe? and we have 3 of our vendors figured out and 2 have money already. We still have to give money to our DJ. Other than that I am working on decorations and such which, I will admit, has changed a lot but now that we are closer i'm making some final decisions and letting things happen as they are.

It's common aha. I think it's a common feeling to feel like omg I've got so much left to do

It's totally normal and can hit at any time! I work in a doctors office and was sending in prescription refills for a patient when I realized that my wedding is less than 10 months away (had to determine how many refills to get them to their next appointment, at which point I realized how close wedding day is). That freaked me out 😂 Knowing how many little details are left can drive any bride into anxiety mode!

Oh man, now I feel a little behind! Getting married Sept 4, 2020 so I guess I'm 8 months out? Ack. We have the venue booked, photographer, flowers, catering is on deck (ready to sign), I have my dress already (yay!), HMUA, and DOC on deck (ready to sign). So I guess I have a lot of the major vendors done BUT we're still not completely set on our guest list (lol) so we obviously can't send STDs yet. We also don't have a website or registry, the DJ or cake. I'm not panicking. Should I be panicking?? It doesn't feel real yet, so maybe that's why I'm not really feeling the rush
