Don't put that much pressure on yourself, Suze.

Every bride wants her wedding to be perfect and special--and it will be, because it's the meaning and commitment behind the ceremony that counts.

The truth is that weddings are weeks or even months worth of stress leading up to the actual event, which is over in about twenty minutes.

Poof! In the blink of an eye it's over!

And the gathering afterward sounds really nice. Even if something goes wrong (and it inevitably does), your guests will not mind. They're there to celebrate.

What you've got planned sounds very nice.

Afterwards you honestly will wonder what you got so worked up about!

I'm worried that I look awful. I am exhausted. I am going to be a mess.
Yesterday I almost decided to not do this.
I am so scared I wanted to run....brilliant huh...Nick would just run after me and I don't want to be anywhere he isn't anyway. Sigh.

There was so much stress and strife leading up to my wedding that I gained 20 pounds, and the seamstress had to add side panels to my dress!

I had placed so much stock in my vanity that it totally backfired and the dress didn't look good at all. I ended up pretty mediocre-looking.

But the wedding was a blast anyway. I just looked at it as Murphy's Law.

And you know what? I haven't looked at my wedding pictures in years! They're just not that important in the long run.

Real life slowly takes over the superficial stuff.

Your wedding will be fine.

Thank you for being such a wonderful friend Gilmer love ~ thank you for always calming down when I need it. ♥

And I hear you...I guess I need to breathe and chill.

Suze, nothing is ever perfect, no matter how much time is spent planning. Remember the most important part of your wedding will be the vows between you and your Love. Everything else is just lovely "fluff." Your guest will see the joy in your eyes as you marry your Sweetheart, and not notice any little thing that doesn't seem perfect to you.
Please start this minute to take care of yourself; we don't want a tired bride, lovely though she is... ;-)
Nourish your body and mind....play some calming, soft music to help you relax a little bit at least.
Take care of YOU Honey, and I guarantee everything that must be done will be taken care of, and you will have a beautiful wedding.
Sending you much love,
Croutie

Thank you my love. So so much!!! :hug: ♥

I feel better....something good happened, well, quite a few things and I started a thread. :)

I was being ridiculous.....and I had completely forgotten how unbelievably blessed I am!!! ♥

You should be preoccupied with you, I am so happy for you and Nick.

venuscat 09-19-2017 06:45 PM

Thank you so very much love! From both of us. :) :hug: ♥

Hiya Julyers

Such excitement Suze, enjoy the moment, it will all be over too quickly.❤️

Hiya to all my Julyer friends. I'm off to have some breakfast, I fancy porridge with milk and honey for some reason. Have a wonderful day.:grouphug:
