Wedding is Less Then Two Months Away and I'm Freaking Out

Hey! I feel the same way... Mine is 8/6!!! We got TONS of stuff done in January/February. April and May were super busy for us and so wedding planning was kind of put on the back burner... Now that it's getting close I definitely have certain days where I'm FREAKING OUT and others where I'm fine.

My advice would be to just get a list started of all those little things... yes it seems long and daunting and scary.... then try to knock one off per day during the week whether it's simply making an appointment or sending an email or buying an item. This is what I'm doing and it's working so far!

Thanks! That's a great idea. I love lists so this will deffs help with my anxiety. I just don't know how the last couple of months went by so fast!

The only thing from the list that you didn't mention is invites. Do you have those figured out?

It sounds like you have a lot of the big stuff done. Just try to go through the day in your head and make a list of those little things (transportation to/from venue, where you will be getting ready, food for bridal party while you are getting ready, etc.) and just remember that if you forget to plan for a small detail, likely no one will notice anyway and you will still be married!

It sounds like you're pretty much done! My advice to you is not to sweat the small stuff and all those extra tiny details. They can be things that you probably won't even notice on the actual day, yet the take up so much time and energy. Guests often don't notice or care either (depending on what it is). Take some pride in what you've already accomplished and try to relax a bit!

Thanks ladies! Yes invites are done and sent as well. I guess I am just use to being super organized! The big stuff seemed easy! Its thing like the schedule, transportation and things like that, that are freaking me out.

You can always ask your point of contact at your venue for day-of schedule recommendations. Or even your photographer might have suggestions!

Deep breaths, you've got this!! Lists are your friend Whenever I get overwhelmed I just tell myself to only focus on the next thing and deal with that instead of freaking out about everything!

Another good idea @Erin, thanks!

You have the major things locked down which is great. It's easy to get tied up in the small details but just know if you don't plan one more thing your wedding is pretty much covered. To Do list have been so helpful for me. I have one for payments, one for DIY, one vendors. I have it broken down by months. I know exactly what I need to buy each month to get ready by August! If I try to think about everything all together I get overwhelmed.

Thanks everyone. I will start making lists tonight!

The little details aren't important. You have the big things. Keep it at that. If you think of something little, then get it or go for it or plan it. If you forget something it wasn't that important anyways.

Don't freak out, take a deep breath, and join the IDGAF club.

Honestly, I think this is pretty normal. Once you get the big stuff locked in, you are fine to take a breather and slack. Just don't be like me and wait until two weeks before to start doing all the little things and you should be good!

I went through this a couple of weeks ago with all the little things but as PP have said just make a list. I did and it was so long so it made me freak out a little bit more but once I separated the list by month of what I wanted to get done each month it was like okay I can do this no problem.
