She's Just Not That In To You

A confession. I feel like I'm not into this wedding planning things as much as I should be. I am so ready to be married to Mr. Wonderful. I am excited to change my name (even considering all the annoying paperwork). I am really anxious to get to say things like "my husband." I'm just not that excited to plan the actual event, mostly because I'm exhausted just thinking about it.

I feel like wedding have become such a huge big deal, where it has to be perfectly designed and original and handcrafted and "you" and it's a whole lot of pressure. Even planning for a small wedding. All the details, the favors, the bespoke invitations and perfectly coordinated but not matching bridesmaids dressed. And I really want all that, but the thought of doing everything that has to be done to get that makes me want to pull the covers back up over my head.

Maybe a part of it is that I'm still along way out, so I have a lot to plan, but I can't do any of it so early, so every new idea or detail is just another line on a To-Do list that can't be done (yet). As many a bride before me have discovered, planning a wedding is a lot of work! Anyone else out there suffering planning fatigue?
