Pre-Wedding Blues- I Am Not Excited
Q: What do you do if you aren’t excited about your wedding? Don’t get me wrong, I know I am marrying the right person but all this wedding hoopla isn’t appealing to me.
People keep asking me am I excited and they are all giddy about it. How do I look if I say “not really.”
I am paying for all of it myself and really I don’t want to. Why do I have to spend thousands of dollars to make other people happy? I just want to get married to the man I love. All this other stuff is for the birds.
I don’t know what kind of advice I expect to get from this but thanks for reading it.
A: If you aren’t excited then it’s time to change it up to something you are excited about. To me it sounds like you just want to keep it simple and there is nothing wrong with that.
Sometimes weddings can turn into these events that are about other people instead of being about the bride and groom.
Some people choose to deal with this by eloping and having a celebration later, but whatever you do, don’t get sucked into other peoples thoughts and ideas on how you should get married. Do what’s best for you!
Good luck.
I have been feeling the same way. I was excited until reality hit when certain people wouldn’t cooperate, I had to fire two planners, and on top of it all everything just seems to be so expensive. I am excited about marrying my “God-Sent” but everything else is just a show for others.
