Holy crap, it’s 2010. That means I’m getting married this year. In less than nine and a half months. Holy crap holy crap holy crap. Omigod omigod omigod. Suddenly, what felt so far off one week ago feels like it’s going to happen any minute. It feels like there is so much to do. Addresses invitations clothes gifts officiant rings rentals website WTF!!!
Do we really have to do it this year? Can we just push it back to 2011? 2011 sounds nice. April 9, we can do April 9, 2011. THAT SOUNDS REALLY NICE.

Awww. Baby’s first panic attack.
You have soooooooo much time. Dont freak out. I know all those timelines make it seem like you have to do everything right away, but that’s not the case. In fact, we got engaged in August, nine months before our date. When I started calling caterers and other vendors in September they were all like, its way too early.
Even four months away (where I am now) I still get too early comments. The only thing you have to worry about is booking a location and a hotel ASAP. Everything can be done later.
I got almost the opposite response from vendors. We were looking into venues and caterers in September, one year before our date, and they were like, these dates are going FAST. You better nail it down ASAP. Weird, huh??
But I totally hear you. Thanks for the perspective… today was the first time things started to seem insurmountable.
First of all – a lil freak out is probably normal. But really…I’m 4 months out with a shit load of things to accomplish and I find myself more and more chillaxed about the whole shindig. I’m letting go of things that I thought were wicked important, and just dealing with the big stuff.
I give myself a lil goal per week to get through it. Take it all in lil bites. This week is the DJ.
And I’m having one hell of a time. Eh. It’ll work out!
Pour yourself a drink and relax tonight!
Hearing from someone who’s got four months to go and is chill about it is making me feel pretty relaxed. And so is this drink in my hand. 🙂
