It really does not matter whether you’re a chilled bride or a bridezilla, it’s a fact that all brides worry. Having gotten hitched recently, I can definitely testify to this. You can pretty much ignore the fact whether you’re having a small wedding or a big one, because no matter which way you’re leaning, the amount of worry will still kill you.
The weather – I don’t think that weather even existed in your world before preparing for your wedding but closer to the day you will find yourself watching the weather channel and downloading weather apps. If luck isn’t on your side, which was the case for me because it rained briefly on my wedding day, make sure you have a good bridesmaid that will calm you down.
The amount of guests – You wouldn’t think so at first, but you can seriously offend some people for not inviting them to your wedding. Believe me, the numbers will keep changing and as the numbers of guests change, so will the cost. But word of advice, invite whoever YOU want to be there, to share your special day. Don’t invite someone because you feel like you have to.
The budget – Even if you and your partner set aside a budget for your wedding, there is only an extremely small chance that you will stay within it. Unless you have wealthy parents, and are not paying for the Cinderella-esque wedding yourselves, the price of fresh flowers alone is enough to leave you baffled.
The dress fitting – From the day you’re measured up for your wedding dress, to the day you take it off and is officially married, you will be constantly worrying about what you’re putting in your mouth. You don’t want it to be too tight, so you lay off the cookie. You don’t it to be too loose, so you add some chicken to your salad. It’s a constant battle!
The food – This is some real sh*t to worry over because you don’t want relatives bitching about how bad the catered food was. Trust me, this is the least of any bride’s worries. But it’s still stressful.
The shoes – Of course you would want fabulous shoes for your wedding day, but most of the time, fabulous means bloody uncomfortable and the worry of tripping down the aisle will haunt you.
The happiness of guests – Naturally, you would want your guests to be dancing till the world ends. You worry about the playlist and if the amount of booze is enough to make sure everyone’s having a ball. But don’t fret, honey. If you’re fussing over things like this before the wedding, chances are you have prepared everything to a T and everyone will have a fantastic time!
The end of it – You spend so much time planning your wedding, stressing over things and organizing that when it’s over, you wonder if you’ll miss all the time spent preparing for your big day. But hey, that’s why you have booked a beach honeymoon!
The mother – Trust me when I say this, your mother can stress you out on your wedding day.
