    So ive seen a few post on here lately about things your most worried about / nervous about and i just wondered what everyones biggest stress has been?

    I LOVE planning and organizing things im abit of a control freak so ive been in my element with the whole wedding plannning but id have to say my bm's have been the BIGGEST stress to me! everything else has seemed a walk in the park compared to tying to sort and organize them lol

    So ....

    If your already married what was the 1 thing that stressed you out the most and for those still planning whats been your biggest stress so far?

    was it Finding a venue, family, bms, budgeting ... etc :)

    I'm still planning and at the moment the biggest stress to me has been without a doubt the guest list ans seating plan. More and more I am finding myself counting to 10 and saying woosah like 50thousand times lol, it's a wonder my hair hasn't started falling out xx

    At the moment im not really stressed over anything apart from the prospect of getting THIS year is daunting me slightly. I feel like i should be stressing more and get on with things but i actually dont have loads to do.

    My main stresses/worries over the past 6 months of planning have been money - saving like crazy then H2B lost his job, saying No to people and actually not getting so swept up in everything and remembering Yes its our wedding day and one of the most important days of our life but it is also ONE day and dont want to spend a fortune xxx

    Nothing is really stressing me yet... the fact it is now happening this year is a little bit like woah! and i think im stressing myself out over not stressing enough if you know what i mean?

    majority of the big stuff is done but its making a proper list of EVERY little thing that is left to do that will no doubt knock me for 6!! x

    mine is that I seem to be doing it on my own.. H2B doesn't seem to be getting involved and just says 'do what you want it's your day'... but it isn't is ours and I'd love him to have at least a little bit of input. I guess because it's a while away (August) then maybe he can't see stuff to get excited about - maybe women are different. He said that I'm good and planning and organzing so leaves me to it... makes me a bit upset sometimes

    Mine is that my dress doesnt fit me properly at the moment and I actually dont like it. So crash diet and lots of swimming to tone up and loose weight.

    And the obvious money worries of course...

    Biggest stress for me is that people turn up, Its a real worry. I know so many people who RSVP etc and then still make excuses and not turn up.

    Guest list!!! No question!

    OMG my bm's dresses!!!!

    They're all really lovely and laid back, but i've been stressing about it for months. Finally picked the dress and ordering it tonight.

    On top of that, I can't get a wedding ring to fit my engagement ring. I absolutely hate the wedding rings that are in a curve to go under the stone so it looks like i'm getting a different eng ring. V stressful and I feel a bit hideous about it, but i'm adamant about the wedding ring i wnat -just didn't consider it a year ago!!

    GC2B im with you there! im a complete stress-head by nature but we're going for a very informal day to try and combat that - i've even drawn the line at having a seating plan at all! but as a result our main focus is on the company, we're in love with a venue that will hold all of our close family (mines a biggie) and friends, with their accomodation for two nights included in the wedding package - we hope that just having to sort transport will allow most people to make it - but of course the turn-out is outwith our control so we'll just have to give them plenty notice lol.

    It's not the actual organising we're doing pretty well with stress levels, it's the fact that certain family members keep butting in and telling us how we should be having things etc, that's what is stressing me out.

    We're doing it on our terms and our terms only.

    Most stress for me is that my OH hasn't chosen a BM yet and that I have no-one to help me so I don't know where to start! Im a weak willed worrier!

    Up until now, the venue was the biggest stress. We came close to choosing 2 other venues before finally settling on a 3rd. The decision took 8 months and I was so relieved once it was sorted I had to take a break from the planning for six months!

    But now, the biggest stress has to be the dress. With 6 months to go I've only just picked it...! Talk about cutting it fine! I was really panicking that I would end up wearing some god-awful dress that I chose just because I needed something to wear. I never want to go through that ever again!
