think back to three weeks before your wedding
can you please think back to three weeks before your wedding...
tell me - what did you feel like? What was your life like?
Things are crazy for me right now in all areas of my life - and I am just kind of looking for some reassurance that what I am going through right now is normal.
Did you feel stressed, happy, sad, touchy, crazy? I dunno - please share!!!

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
I was a little stressed because I had all the last minute things to do, like put together my programs and menus, candle placecards, etc. Plus, I was an out of state bride, so that made me worry a little bit about getting everything packed up and not accidentally leaving something behind.
But it wasn't that bad because I knew I had things under control; and one of my bridesmaids really helped me out a lot with running errands for me and helping me with the programs and stuff.
Don't worry - just keep a list of things that you have to do, and ask for help if you need it!

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
Totally normal!!!! I felt all of those things, the last few weeks leading up to the wedding feels like crunch time!!! All the last minute details, ugh, I don't miss that!!
But you'll be fine - everything always works out.

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
I think three weeks was the calm before the storm but 1-2 weeks was very, very busy/hectic - getting all the last minute things done.
All is good - you're getting close!!

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
three weeks before my wedding was christmas, so I had extra running around stuff to do....I do not remember exactly what I was doing, but I remember I was still waiting for my wedding bands, my dress had JUST come in & needed to be fitted...3 of my girls shoes had not come in & the other ones had not been dyed...I was still waiting on my MOH dress and my garter, my veil came in the wrong color, and my favors were stuck in customs.
I was super-touchy & on top of everything else my boss was riding me 
Other than that & the huge meltdown I had, everything was great! BTW...everything came in on time, and I had no worries by the very next next week....stuff just got crazy b/c of thanksgiving & christmas...and my wedding was awesome

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
what you are feeling is totally and completely normal. I was an emotional rollercoaster three weeks before my wedding all the way up to the day before. I couldn't eat or sleep and was running on adrenaline and was happy, sad, anxious, etc etc.
My ultimate meltdown happened the Wednesday before the wedding when I saw the weather forecast for torrential downpours and started bawling my eyes out! My husband had to talk me down by reminding me we were "not going to a funeral - we were going to our wedding and it would be wonderful no matter what the weather." Luckily it is something we still joke about.
Easy for me to say now, but try to take everything in stride. It will all work out and your wedding will be the best day of your lives!

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
Three weeks before my wedding I was nuts! I was having cold feet, I was scared about moving, about being a wife, about having a nice wedding. Basically I was really stressed about it all!
Two weeks before the wedding, I wanted to cancel the whole thing and fly to Aruba to get married on the beach!
One week before the wedding I was sooooo excited! I just couldnt wait.
I wouldnt worry, I am sure your feelings are normal! A wedding is a stressful thing and when you add the normal stresses of life its only normal to feel crazed!!
Good Luck! Dont worry its almost here!!!

Re: think back to three weeks before your wedding
Very very hectic! We were in the process of moving into our apartment. Between that we had to pay the vendors, pick up the favors, etc.. It was crazy but it went by fast!!
