Post Wedding Anxiety

I think you are too much in your head! These pics are beautiful and you look extremely happy! You have a beautiful smile that really shows all over your face. The only pic where I thought the smile didn't really show all over your face was pic #5 but even then it is very subtle.

You look stunning in your pictures! I wouldn't say you look stressed at all.

I can see why you might be worried about it, but I agree with earias!! You look beautiful and happy in these pictures! The last two are the only ones where I would think that maybe you're a little stressed, but otherwise, the thought wouldn't have even crossed my mind! Try not to worry and enjoy your wedding pics!!

I felt the same way during pics! I actually snapped at my bridesmaids - we didnt get enough pictures w my DH's family bc I was annoyed and being a brat. I meeded a break - we snuck off had some champs amd I felt alot better. Your pics are gorgeous! I've stopped over thinking it and am just enjoying the photos that we have from our day! Our shots on the dance floor are my fav bc they are so us!

I went through the same post wedding critique over my wedding pics! Seeing little things that weren't right (ie. someone forgot to put the flowers on the pedestals lol). And I also felt my smile looked forced because Hey I had been smiling all weekend and how could my mouth not besore and tired lol! Now I just look back and laugh and reminisce on what was really important, the reason my smile looked tired was because I really was smiling all weekend from the most amazing and unforgettable weekend, that all our most loved family and friends got to unite as one big family to celebrate my marriage to my best friend. Remember, we are our own worst critic but ultimately noone really cares/notices these little things as much as you. From what I saw in your pictures, you looked gorgeous!

Honestly, I don't think so! Your smile looks genuine

I think you look so beautiful and happy! I obviously don't know what your smile looks like otherwise, but these don't look forced at all.

Pic 3 looks a little forced to me, but Pic 4 is beautiful and you look genuinely happy

I don't think you look stressed, you look happy!

I think the pictures look great! I can’t tell you’re stressed at all. I did the same thing though at my wedding. I felt rushed and there were photos I knew afterwards we didn’t get and I hate it, but i can’t change it now! Waiting for my professional pictures too and it’s agony 😩
But I do think your concerns are in your head! We are our own worst critics.

Thank you all so much for the honest feedback! I'm hoping when we get all the photos from our photographer there's a lot more that I'll love. My husband, and everyone who has seen some of the photos, love them, but I think I just need to hear it from strangers... as weird as that sounds...

That is what I was going to say. You look beautiful and happy. Not forced at all.

You don't look stressed! You guys look really great. Don't over analyze!

You look beautiful and completely normal! It’s in your head. I do the same thing, a lot of us do, so don’t stress it.

Hi Caroline!!! I can definitely understand your concerns, it's your wedding day and you want the memories to be perfect! I think your photos are gorgeous and I can't tell that you're stressed at all! I actually feel the opposite, you look like you're happy and had the best time! Try not to think about the stressful moments and really focus on all of the wonderful memories!

Congratulations!!!

Really? I don't see that at all! The veil pictures is absolutely stunning. I think your smile in pics 4 & 5 look so genuine! They look great to me.

I think that your photos are beautiful, and you look incredibly happy in all of these! I am sorry you feel as though you rushed through photos, but if these are just the sneak peek from your photographer, then you shouldn't be worried at all! These look amazing! Congratulations to you and your husband, and thank you for sharing! #4 and #7 are my favorites by the way!

I think since you're aware that you were stressed at the time makes you think that you're faking your smile. I don't think that at all. In my opinion, you look happy
