wedding planning.

i feel like something is wrong with me - i'm not really into wedding planning at all. don't get me wrong, i am SO EXCITED to marry Kenny, but i just don't care about many of the details of the wedding. now that i am this far, i'm seeing that i am probably someone that would have been better off eloping. i know that this will be an incredible memory and i am excited to have all of my friends and family with me on the day i get married, but i don't feel the need to talk about wedding planning all of the time. i feel like all anyone asks me is, "how's the wedding planning coming?" and i just don't want to talk about it. i don't really do much besides the essentials and what needs to be done right away. i have a venue, band, invitations, photographer, flowers, dress...what more do i need? i'm not having any favors and am having no decorations besides the flowers (oh, and the ocean...) part of me wishes that i was more into the details and was excited about the wedding planning, but the other part just isn't into it. i feel like i am letting people down (my mom, his mom...) by not wanting to do wedding things all the time. there's also the shower. i am so appreciative of everyone who wants to throw me a shower, but i don't even really want one. i am having one (thankfully, not 3 as requested by some family memebers), and i am excited to share this time with everyone, but would be ok if i didn't have one. am i normal? do other brides feel this way? i just don't really like a lot of attention on me and don't like to be fussed over. i'm already starting to mentally prepare myself for my wedding day as i have no choice but to be the CENTER OF ATTENTION!

  1. I was totally into the details (but I'm just like that) but the attention part of it all I was NOT prepared for. I like the be the one who does all the work behind the scenes and it was a SHOCK to have everyone making a fuss over me.

    It was definitely worth it though to have the memories and know you'll never have to do it again!:)
