When FH first proposed I was over-the-moon happy and I was so excited to plan our wedding. Now...I practically want nothing to do with it. I love FH and can't wait to be his wife, but if it were up to me at this point we would just go to the courthouse or Vegas and get it over with. I am so tired of...

When FH first proposed I was over-the-moon happy and I was so excited to plan our wedding.

Now...I practically want nothing to do with it. I love FH and can't wait to be his wife, but if it were up to me at this point we would just go to the courthouse or Vegas and get it over with. I am so tired of people trying to butt in and make our day about them.

-"But we want to sit with so and so" when we haven’t even received RSVPs yet to work on the seating chart.

-"Well, if SHE'S going to be there then WE won't!"--ok, then DON'T come!

-"But why isn't MY name on the bridal shower invitation?"--umm, how about because you're not throwing it...?

I feel bad that I'm not excited (when FH really is). Is anyone else feeling this way right now?

SoontobeMrs.D I feel the same way about my FH. We are different in some ways and similar in others and people ask how did we end up together but we just seem to fit. There are times we know what the other is thinking before we say it and even when we are in the same room and doing our own things its so nice. And I agree with you, that all I know is now and today and i know that I love him and want to marry him for the rest of my life. So Ive been trying to just focus on planning our day, and share with who wants to be a part of it and letting other people go and not worry so much.

If all of the financial stuff was taking care of I'd be a happy camper but the stress of making all of the payment is the one thing that makes Vegas look appealing... At Mrs In September... Honey I'm sorry you are dealing with all of that... I can't imagine anyone placing bets on your marriage that is absolutely the cold hearted thing I've heard in a long time... Don't you listen to anyone who has negative things to say and remember how good it will feel to rub their faces in it when you are together for many many years... hugs to you!

Thank you Victoria C.!!! I try not to listen to people. We are all planning our special day and that's what we need to focus on and let everyone else deal with their own BS. And whoever wants to share in it they can!

Its pretty bad when you check the count down clock every day not thinking "OH SHOOT I DONT HAVE ENOUGH TIME" or YAY ONLY 120 DAYS" but looking at it as 120 days!!!!!!!!!! can it PLEASE be 2???? just so it can all be OVER!!!!" i cant wait till its all said and done! i love fh with all my heart but i just hate wedding planning. my hopes are that from this point on it will go smoothly.

I know just what you mean. When we decided to push the date back the only thing that bothered me was knowing there would be 2 more years of people's annoying questions and family aggravating me about details they're not involved in or paying for.

It really surprised me how many people are willing to jump into your wedding planning and act like they get to make decisions when they have absolutely no right to. I know if one of my friends gets engaged and wants me to help her I am going to be supportive and understanding and not tell her how to plan her wedding and make ridiculous demands.

I'm so with ya'll on this. At first I was so pumped, but getting to the nitty gritty...this crap is a lot of work!!! I'd do anything for the day to be over so FH and I can spend our lives together. It's hard being apart from him all the time!
