How to Survive Wedding Planning and Keep Your Sanity
Let’s face it, planning a wedding can be a total nightmare. But don’t worry, we’re here to help you make it through this experience with your sanity (and sense of humor) intact. Here are some tips for managing wedding stress and staying organized, with a little bit of humor thrown in:
Make a checklist:
Create a comprehensive checklist of everything that needs to be done and break it down into smaller tasks that can be accomplished over time. This will help you stay on top of things and ensure that nothing is forgotten… like the wedding cake, the groom, or your own name (just kidding, hopefully).
Prioritize:
Identify the most important tasks and focus on them first. This will help you feel a sense of accomplishment and reduce stress… Or at least, it will make it easier to fake it ’til you make it.
Delegate:
Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Delegate tasks to family and friends to alleviate some of the burden. You’ll be surprised how many of them are secretly hoping you’ll ask them to do something.
Stay flexible:
Remember that things may not always go as planned. Stay flexible and be prepared to adjust as needed. And if all else fails, just blame it on the pandemic.
Take care of yourself:
Don’t forget to take care of your physical and emotional well-being. Make sure to get enough sleep, eat well, and find time for yourself to relax and de-stress. And remember, it’s totally okay to have a glass of wine (or three) to unwind.
Hire a wedding planner:
If you are feeling overwhelmed with planning, consider hiring a wedding planner to help you with the details. They can help you stay organized and ensure that everything runs smoothly. Or at least, they’ll take the blame when things inevitably go wrong.
Communicate:
Communication is key. Make sure you are in regular contact with vendors, family and friends to keep everyone informed and on the same page. Or, you know, just use emojis and GIFs, that works too.
By following these tips, you can manage wedding stress and stay organized leading up to your special day. Remember to take things one step at a time and enjoy the process. And most importantly, don’t forget to have fun! Because at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about.
