It feels so far away!

I'm getting impatient and my wedding isn't until next May! I just figure at least we have tons of time to plan and save without being rushed or stressed. I would rather have too much time than not enough.

I found i went through different phases. I got engaged February 2014 and get married in July. I can't believe it's so close now! There were months I did NOTHING and months I did a ton. It's kind of a roller coaster especially when you truly realize "no one cares as much about your wedding as you do" except your fiancé and maybe your mom lol. That's how we all end up here lol! God luck with planning and try to have fun. Plus you only get to call you FH your fiancé for so long

By the time we get married, we will have been engaged for almost 2 years. I nailed down most of my big vendors last year, and around September, I started feeling like you. Then January hit, and it's been balls to the wall ever since. Don't wait!!!!

We got married in Dec 2013. I had my venue in January and other big things taken care off. It took a lot of stress away. You never know what will come up in-between. For me, my mom got really sick suddenly and passed. Having the major things taken care of left me time not having to worry about wedding stuff until I was ready. Also, the more you plan ahead of me, for me, I kept changing and adding more stuff to the wedding which just spent more and more money. For now, I always recommend, go to a book store and buy one of the wedding book planners. Sit down and read through it all. See what will come up, etc. It's been my guide throughout everything. There is a checklist broken down by each month, then weeks, and days leading up to your wedding. I just started with my date and then went back and labeled each section with what date it would happen according to my wedding date. That's where I started and am glad I did.

When my FH an i get married we will have been engaged for 22 months. i totally know how you feel but probably in june or july when you hit that 6 month mark you will start to feel things pick up again. i was where you are the other month.

We've been engaged since August 2013, we've had a rough engagement though. I had a lot of moments where I had to stop planning. FHs father past away end of November 2013. We thought we could get married fast enough, but thought we would have more than 3 months, we were supposed to have a JP come to FILs house and marry us in December and then have a big reception/vow renewal later on. The only thing I was able to plan in 2013 was our venue, after that in came to a stand still. There's been a few times where I would just say IDGAF, but then something gets me going again.

I get married in July and time has been flying by. I put a little chalk board by my work computer so I can do a count down and see how close it's getting. It definitely keeps me motivated. I also keep an eye on the check list that weddingwire gives us. It was a shock for me when it popped up to address the invitations this month so I can mail them next month. I had a big panic attack over that, even though most of my wedding is planned.

We will have been engaged for 19 months by the time we get married, so I feel ya. Trust me, once the summer's over time will fly by and you will be wishing time would slow down!

Just be in the moment, and get as much done as possible to prevent future stress, by having to do everything at the last minute. I'm so glad I planned/booked as much as I could as early as possible, otherwise my anxiety would be through the roof

I feel ya. If money were no object, I'd be married like..tomorrow.

I went through phases for sure. It would be a few weeks of being super wedding-excited and i planned and planned. Then a few weeks of not even caring or wanting to do ANYTHING wedding related. Once you get down to the home stretch though it flies by. I know everyone says that but it's so true. I remember dress shopping exactly one year before the wedding and now I'm getting married this freaking week! It's crazy!

Time moved really slowly until 60 days out. Everyone says to do things ahead of time, and that's somewhat good advice. Getting big things like your venue, photographer, etc booked is a great thing to do ASAP. I'm a horribly indecisive person and can totally change my mind every 30 seconds, so I didn't want to do any details too far out. I knew I'd change and didn't want to waste time or money. Now I'm 30 days out today and wondering how in the hell I'm going to get everything done!

I feel the same way, time is dragging! I've been engaged for a year already & I still have a year left I booked all my major vendors within 4 months of getting engaged so I don't have anything wedding related to do. Next month I'm going to start shopping for my dress. I can't wait!

FH and I got so much done early now it seems like it's taking forever for October to get here.

It will go by very fast! Once labor day is here, it will move even quicker. When your date rolls around, you're going to wonder where the time went.

Lists are your friend, if you're anything like me: once I had organized and planned exactly what needed to be done and when to do it, the rest was just marking things off the checklist.

I was engaged for 8 months and 4 days and it totally dragged, so I sympathize with that. I don't know how the ladies do it who say the time flies by! I wish it had! :-)

Yes, and it will fly by!! I had the big things booked and done in the fall. I really put everything off until after Jan 1.... I wish I hadn't!! Get things done/purchased as early as you can! You'll thank yourself down the road!

I feel the same way! After today, all of my big vendors will be booked and I have almost 13 months left! I don't know what I'm going to do for the next year.

As many other ladies of said, I too have went through phases!

I got engaged in January 2014 and this wait is just killing me. There are times when I feel like it is flying by and will be here in no time, then there are days where I am miserable and just ready to elope because I feel like the big day will never be here. Sometimes I regret picking a date so far out and wished I would of picked a closer date so our engagement was closer and we could move onto the next step in our lives ( house, babies etc) But I am enjoying the wedding planning process for the most part because I feel it is bringing FH and I even closer then before.

We were engaged June 2014. I thought October 2015 was so far away. I was lucky to have fall and the holidays to keep be preoccupied. I booked all the major stuff right away then just sat back and started searching color schemes, ideas, dresses, pricing different things. Once Jan came I went into DIY mode and took my time. It's now six months and I wrote down a monthly schedule of what should be done when. And I'm now beginning to feel the pressure. The last 9 months did go by quickly. If you focus on one month at a time and what you need to do that month. Time will fly.

Yep! just kind of hanging out for the moment, haven't really done anything wedding related in a couple weeks. I'm constantly searching through Etsy and Pinterest looking for any ideas though.
