At the stage you are at now in planning, I was very much the same way! I was making new lists every few days and keeping them with me all the time. Now that it's only a week away (I'm so ready!), I've calmed down and decided that I did my best and now it's time to let the chips fall as they may. You'll feel it when things start to really come together and you can relax! I know your hard work will payoff just as mine did.

I totally hear you! I'm getting married in just under 3 months- totally on schedule, but I have anxiety nightmares probably twice a week. I think it comes from so much pressure for it to be the "perfect day". Something that helps me is if I do something each day in preparation- it can be something small, like writing down a few songs you might like to be played at the reception. If you feel like you're making progress each day, you won't freak out.

it is normal…but STOP stressing. Everything will turn out beautiful. Have fun and remember that it's about you and your future spouse…not about flowers and cake and planning. (you are the only one that is going to remember the details about it anyway after it's over…I don't mean that in a mean way either…that's just a fact)

You're normal. Nothing will go wrong that you can't either fix or laugh off. It's not the party anyway, it's the rest of your life together.

No it's not normal at all. Striving for perfection means that something is bound to go wrong - from the cake getting smashed to the groom not showing up. Nothing can be perfect, not even for you.

Something will go wrong, and it won't be perfect.y planned… but it will be perfect! It is your wedding, and it sounds like things are pretty together…. just calm down, and expect the unexpected. Odds are, anything that goes wrong will just turn into a heartwarming or funny story that will be shared in your family history.
