Over thinking???

Shannon, on August 23, 2020 at 4:25 PM Posted in Planning 0 11
My wedding is sept 12, 2020. So im really excited and texting my maid of honor pictures of centerpieces I've set up and getting the general idea of how things will look. But im not getting any replies back anymore. Kinda making me less excited for my own wedding. Am I over thinking this? Maybe sending to much. I have no idea anymore. I am sending less and less now. But still no replies 😕

    I wouldn't take her lack of response too personally, unless she's not responding to you at all about anything, wedding-related or not. Have you directly asked for her opinion along with the pictures in the texts? Otherwise, if you just sent the pictures with no requests for feedback, your maid of honor might not realize that you're looking for her opinion. Another thing you could do is setup a girls night where you could show your maid of honor the centerpieces in person, and you could get her opinion on them at that time.

    It’s not her wedding. So as long as you and your FH like the ideas and plans, that’s what matters. But yes, bridesmaids and friends and whoever else can get a little tired of hearing it after a while because their day-to-day life does not revolve around wedding planning. That’s what Wedding Wire is for. Outside of this WW app, I don’t talk wedding stuff with family/friends. They’ll see everything when they show up.

    We’re getting married the same day!! Congrats!! Both of my MOHs have been uncommunicative, for the past few months honestly. No one is as excited about your wedding as you are. I get that you want their input, you can always share here for feedback and support.

    Yeah ive asked for feedback as well. And she does reply if it isn't wedding related. So more than likely tired of wedding talk.

    Oh, I see. I wouldn't take it personally. You and your fiance will always be the ones most excited for your wedding and the plans you're working on for it, others may not be as willing to always talk wedding. I agree with the previous comments, feel free to ask for opinions or share your ideas on Wedding Wire!

    Unfortunately, this is what wedding planning is like, no one seems to care or even bother with it because its so far off, but the one time you have someone seem so excited over it is a real treat.

    It makes sense because you want to be able to share in the excitement with someone

    I 100% agree with PPs - it is your wedding so don't rely on your bridal party for input on the finer details. That, and as Rhiamae said, no one cares about your wedding the same way you do, unfortunately!

    I feel you, Shannon. I've had the same thing happen when I try to text my bridesmaids. It really sucks the excitement and fun out of it, as much as you try to not let it bother you. My FH keeps saying I shouldn't take it personally, but it's hard not to.
