What's stressing you out?

Try one of your local grocery stores. I don't know where you are but places like publix and Harris Teeter do wedding flowers you just need to go in and ask

Oh my !! I hope everything works out. I'll have a drink for you.

Kellie,

Thank you! Were going to be in the Smokey Mountains and it's like a 15 minute ceremony so can't really get professional help, but I'm trying my best

The most stressful thing right now is getting my FHs family here. We live and are getting married in the Midwest and they are on the East Coast, and he has a HUGE family. They are trying to figure out who is all coming and if they can throw in together for a big airbnb or drive together in a big bus or something but no one is very good at making decisions...

It's not my job to figure out and I get that, but I obviously want to make it easy for them so they can all come.

Our wedding is over a year away, so for us the biggest stressor is just planning when things should be done. We have a venue, photographer, videographer, and save the dates.

We feel like we're doing too much and yet not enough if that makes sense.

Nicole, I totally understand that stress. I'm in California and my Husband moved out here from South Carolina. All of his family is on the east coast. His dad was the only one who made an effort to try to attend and due to health issues he can't make it. I really hope your new inlaws and extended family can figure something out and make it for the big day!

Totally makes sense! I started planning a year out for mine and felt the same way. With 30 days left I can tell you, the more you can get done early on the easier life will be leading up to! If you're doing anything DIY figure it out early and start working on it here and there because before you know it the day will be here! Look up "wedding checklists" on pinterest and other sites, they are super helpful!

Such a bummer that he can't make it, and hopefully your new venue works out!

I hope they figure something out too, thanks for the support

I hope you find a venue....
Mine has been my in-laws.... Not one specific jus everything. They wanted to do the pictures so I okayed it. Now I have to find a photographer. Four of his sisters were in my bridal party. Now we dont even know if they are coming because they are barely speaking to us and I dont even know why.

Currently--FH has been in the hospital for 3 days being tested for heart trouble and a possible TIA. As if that isn't enough on its own, we're 36 days out and he's been building after work every night to get everything he's building for the wedding done. So not only are we dealing with being in the hospital but also losing precious time to get things done.

Time,.....

I'm so sorry you're dealing with the in-law drama. Have you directly asked them if they'll be there? I hope it all works out

I’m stressing out because my best friend seems too not be okay with “sharing” me with anyone else and I wanted our other best friend also be a maide of honor but she got very upset with me then on top of that my sister gets mad that I didn’t choose her too be since she’s my only sister so it’s got me stressed out

I am so sorry to hear about your FH. I hope that he's able to get the treatment he needs and overcome this obstacle. If things don't get built, just remember what the day is truly about.

Holy Cow Ashley, you are literally preaching to me! I have two best friends and my option was to pick both of them to by my MOH but then they were still fighting over who gets to stand where. I decided not to have a bridal party at all. Neither were happy, one more so than the other. I finally had to say if they didn't like how I was planning my wedding they didn't have to come. No one needs the extra petty stress and drama. I hope your friend(s) can get over themselves and put you and your day first.

View Quoted Comment Yeah I figured that’s how they would act though my fiancé told me that if they don’t like how you want things then choose someone else he is so sweet he knows how too make me feel better about things but it still just stresses me out but I’m gonna have a talk with them though because I however chose my sister too be my maide of honor so I’m just gonna pray that things turn out for the best because I really don’t wanna turn into a bridezilla lol

View Quoted Comment Definitely! Thank you!

View Quoted Comment They aren't talking to me. Dont really know why. Just have heard rumors through th grapevine. Didnt even realize They werent until I noticed They blocked me on social media. Which doesnt really bother me. Just kinda annoying because I didnt do anything. They just all the sudden stopped. My Fh is going to ask.... If it was my family I wouldnt invite them for acting like this. But its his family amd I know he wants them there. I jist feel like eithwr way ots going to be drama.

That's awful! I hope you can secure the new venue.

Just thinking about planning right now is stressing me out. I have sooo much to do still & I just don't feel like doing it lol. I'm trying to be frugal and save $ when I just want to go on a stress shopping spree lol. I'm overwhelmed at work which I think adds to it. That's my current stress!

Oh no I'm so sorry! My venue has been a nightmare, but I'm hopeful it's all resolved now (knock on wood). They lost my deposit check, my contract, tried to bait and switch the date, tried to insinuate I cancelled, then said "maybe we're not the right place for your wedding" after several months of me trying to get a hold of them and them not returning my calls after confirming the date. Invites have been sent and all vendors have been booked. I ended up having to meet with the board of directors, did my best to remain polite and professional, and was able to sign a new contract at a discounted rate. Hopefully it all stays on track... Maybe you can ask for another representative at this venue - do they have a board of directors or anything?

My current stress is that my cousin/ bridesmaid is apparently allergic to eucalyptus and my FH doesn't feel like looking at groomsmen clothes any more (eye roll). Honestly after all that venue nonsense it's all pretty low priority to me! lol. Good luck with everything I hope it works out!!
