I am not stressed about this wedding. Maybe those are famous last words...but I really have yet to panic and stress out about things. We are a little over 7 months out from the big day, and I'm still feeling very comfortable about how things are going.
Once we decided we wanted to get married in Holmes County, everything quite easily fell into place. Partially because there weren't many options, but partially because my parents, brother and sister-in-law made recommendations and we took them. I talked to people I knew in the HC and made decisions. My parents called friends and more decisions were made. My fiance jokes that our wedding was completely planned in 1 week...and honestly, the big things kind of were.
My main issue is...with my lack of stress, I don't understand my wedding nightmares! Two nights ago, I woke up from a wedding dream in which EVERYthing had gone wrong, but I seriously felt my blood go cold and got chills from the fact that we had no food. Seriously...doing a hog roast was our first decision. So why would we have no food? Not to mention....I wasn't wearing the shoes I had spent hours dreaming about, there were tons of random people there, but not the people I actually wanted there, the band showed up late (this one could possibly happen...I just need to threaten remind all band members*).
So why oh why do I wake up feeling like this? I'm not stressed. But I do spend large portions of my day reading wedding blogs or talking to friends/cowokers about wedding or emailing my mom some random question about weddings. The constant wedding-ness going through my mind all day, every day obviously makes lovely appearances in the night when I can't control them. Just makes me wake up in the morning and decide I need to make more lists.
*I don't really think the band is going to show up late. I have known all these guys since high school...actually, most of them since elementary school- one even longer than that. So I will likely threaten them...and then love them forever because they are amazing and I can't wait to have them play at our wedding! But seriously guys...reception starts at 4:30.
