I am doing all the work and paying for it for everyone else's benefit (how it feels right now)!  Not that I want or need someone to pay for it, but seriously everyone wanted a big wedding but no one thinks of the cost and stress it puts on a couple to do that!   Sal is concerned I'll regret not doing a wedding but I don't think I will.  I think it might be a bit late to cancel now though!  We already put the deposit on the hall & photographer down.   
I know I'll be thrilled the day of... I can't wait for that day to get here!!!  lol          | 
 
  I'm starting to believe this is the norm. In Aug, a fam friend got married. Her ideal wedding was: go on her lunch break, get married, have lunch with her new husband, go back to work. It would have worked too since she works at a courthouse. When her boss found out, she flipped. 3 weeks before the wedding, we went dress shopping, shoe shopping, I Had 3 weeks to learn how to do her hair (and she's super picky), jewelry shopping, wedding cake...... I guess you get the idea. We did it all for someone else. Granted, it's not the same scale as your wedding, my friend was stressed most of the time those 3 weeks.  
Remember to just take a moment out of each day to sit back and think, "soon I'll be his wife, and he'll be my husband." I bet just the thought will get you all giddy and excited. It's what really matters right?
