Overwhelmed and Indecisive

Jamie, on December 4, 2019 at 11:08 PM Posted in Planning 0 11
I’m excited to becoming one with the love of my life but I’m soooooo overwhelmed with all the little details. Not to mention when I find something I love I see something else I love and makes me second guess the decisions I’ve made. The wedding is in July of 2020. I feel like I have time but then again time is dwindling down quickly. Is there anyone else out there that feels like I do?

    I felt overwhelm at times too with so many details to keep track of and I would just stop all wedding plans, get a glass of wine, blanket and find a good cozy movie to watch. I’ll start fresh again next day with a clear head. The second thing that help me during the entire wedding planning was staying organize, having reminders, notes. Find what works for you so you can tackle one task at a time and don’t forget anything. You can do it!

    Omg yes, I feel the same. The stress is taking over my excitement to have a wedding. What helped me is making list in a journal on everything I need to buy or do.

    I'm very indecisive but I blame it on me being an Gemini🤷 I've changed my wedding colors probably 10 different times.
    Thankfully, I've not changed my mind about my wedding dresstenor.gif
    I believe this happens to every Bride tho. My advice is once you've picked out something don't go looking at other ideas because it can have you very confused on what you really want.tenor.gif

    I have felt severely overwhelmed during certain parts of the planning process. What I did, that worked for me, was when I started getting overwhelmed, I took a step back for a few days. I let my mind relax and then, after a few days, I went back to it. My best piece of advice is to focus on the big stuff first. Once you get all of the big stuff handled, the little stuff will fall into place; it especially did for me.

    Word of advice, once you find something that you love, don't look at anything else! You will make yourself crazy and confused. Make your decision and stick with it. I promise, when you see your vision come together on your wedding day, you will be so happy and your choices and all of these overwhelming feelings will be forgotten about Smiley smile .

    Thank you Meghan,
    I’m trying my hardest to stick with my decisions. I’m annoying my FH with the indecisiveness.

    I did the same thing. I would pick something, then a day later say "Do you like this better?" lol. Finally I realized that once I picked something, I couldn't look at that detail anymore. Once I realized that, it made the planning process easier and more enjoyable!

    There are just so many great options out there for weddings!

    I have to admit my organizational skills are not the best that I’m sure is aiding to my anxiety. RI definitely need to get better with that.
