Wedding planning alone

Girl, just let it all out. We're all happy to listen. I've had my fair share of venting sessions on here. There's no worries of it getting back to the person because we don't know your friends and family! Definitely add the wine in there too. It always makes me feel better.

I agree with Taylor, let it all out here! Surely there’s plenty of us who feel your pain! Also I want to suggest, vent to your FS sometimes. You should be receiving in their help as well for the wedding and you can bounce ideas off each other. I have an idea for something and I told my FH, he didn’t really like the idea so he gave me an alternative and I liked his idea better!

I did 90% of the planning by myself. The other 10% involved my mom & my husband. What helped me was staying super super organized & focusing on 1 thing at a time. I blocked out time per day to work on wedding planning, and didn't wedding plan outside those time blocks.

I planned most of my wedding by myself. My husband would give me input on a few things, but he mostly sat back while I planned. I did most of the planning within the first month or two of being engaged. In order to keep myself organized, The Knot wedding planner book my mom bought me. I also organized all of my emails regarding the wedding in a separate folder within my email so I knew where all of my emails about the wedding were. My husband had an Excel spreadsheet for our budget and whenever I bought stuff he would update the spreadsheet to make sure we were staying on budget. For payments dates and appointments with vendors, I put reminders on my phone this way I didn't miss a payment or an appointment. I also kept ideas on Pinterest separate. I had different boards for each thing on Pinterest rather than one wedding board with everything in it. That way if I wanted to look for ideas for like makeup I would go to my makeup board rather than searching through a bunch of other stuff.

Is your FH helping you? It's his wedding, too. My FH doesn't know much about wedding planning, but I wasn't going to have him just sit on his butt the whole process

I gave him certain tasks to be responsible for, such as ordering ties for the groomsmen and finding a videographer. With specific tasks for him to complete, it's worked great for us! It's still me doing more of the planning, but at least I have the extra help from FH. Good luck!

View Quoted Comment I second what Cher said. I forgot to say in my original comment that I also assigned certain things to my husband or have him options to select in order to involve him since it was his wedding too.
