Wedding Stress
Any tips on how to relax when your wedding is two months away and you are in the thick of plans? My fiance and I are planning our wedding ourselves without the aid of others. I am so stressed out, I can`t sleep, my hair is shedding, and my fiance and I argue all the time. This is completely unlike me (us) and I need it to stop. Is this happening to anyone else? Please help.

Hi there. You aren`t the only one stressing! :) Our wedding is in 6 weeks and we move into our new house in a week. We have argued more than usual, but at the end of the night we make a point of realizing that we are taking out our stress on each other. You will get through it. Take a step back. Do what you have to do and take the attitude, if something doesn`t go right, oh well, it is still your wedding and you are bound and determined to relax and enjoy it. We have learned to take each day slowly, there are bad ones and good ones, but what matters most is that you enjoy your wedding day and if it is making you physically ill that can not be good for you. I know a lot of this is easier said than done, but it really does help.
Good luck and Best wishes!

I have a big list of things to do, and I posted it where we can both see it. Every time something gets done we cross it off. It`s nice to look up with 3 weeks to go and see so many things done. Don`t get me wrong, we have tons left to do, but at least we get to focus on what we`ve accomplished too. What is important will get done, what isn`t won`t. Good Luck!

Why not take the weekend and go to a little bed and breakfast with you fiancee. No phones, no cells, no laptops, just you and him. Spend the whole weekend in bed, making love, giving each other back massages and enjoying a luzurous baths. Oh, and don`t forget to have food brought to you...
