5 Ways to Combat Wedding Planning Stress

Preparing for the biggest event of your life can be a bit overwhelming. With all the arrangements into making the wedding day perfect, you forget the most important thing; taking care of yourself.

If you allow all the stress to consume you, it will show on your face on the wedding day. Whether you are the groom, or the bride-to-be, or an honored guest; here are a few tips which will help you adopt a positive attitude and combat the wedding planning stress.

1. Unplug Yourself Daily

It is very easy to let the wedding planning consume all your happiness and take over your life. Therefore, it is vital to give yourself a break and pat yourself on the back for the awesome work you have done until now.

Stop scrolling through vendor profiles and invitation card designs to let your mind relax. It’s even better to limit the wedding planning to a specific time per day and live a little.



2. Do a Workout

Working out will get your mind off the wedding planning for a while and you get wedding ready because let’s be honest – everyone wants to be in the perfect shape for their wedding. A robust workout plan will physically prepare you for the coming days, meanwhile burning the extra fat which will benefit you long after the wedding season is over.



3. There is No Shame in Asking for Help

In a stressful time like wedding planning, a friend can help you in many ways. You can use them a therapist and tell them all your problems. Or they can be a helping hand for you in your time of need. Even if you are a perfectionist – asking for help isn’t a bad idea and would be a huge favor for your mental and physical health.

Give some tasks to friends, best-man, bridesmaids, and future in-laws – do anything to make sure that you don’t burden yourself with more things you can handle.


4. Go Out, Have Some Fun!

There is no better way to take your mind off things than having some fun with your friends and family. Remember that you still have a life and it’s better to enjoy it than stressing yourself with wedding planning all day long.

Go eat your favorite food, watch a movie with friends, or take a leisurely stroll outside. It will help you clear your head and let you focus and organize better.



5. Organization is Everything

The last and perhaps the most important thing to do is to have everything organized so that they are done in an orderly fashion. Best way to do this is to make a numbered list on a priority basis.

This will help you determine which tasks are most important and should be done first. Along with a to-do list, you can also make a budget list so that you don’t spend more than you can afford.



THE BOTTOM LINE

If there’s a way to plan a stressful wedding – it starts and ends with taking care of yourself. Planning a wedding is part of the event, and you should take it as a fun activity rather than a marathon race where you become exhausted at the end.
