How to Find The Joy In Wedding Planning Again

  • Take a Break From Planning: Try to take a break from wedding planning for a while. Pamper yourself. Spend more time doing things that will make you feel better. It could be music, exercise, or just binge-watching movies. Perhaps now is the time to find that DIY project that you abandoned. Give yourself a holiday away from the stress of wedding planning.
  • Face Your Feelings Head-On: There are going to be a lot of negative feelings. It’s okay; what matters is how you handle these feelings. Ignoring or suppressing feelings of disappointment, despair, and frustration are harmful to your health. So it is better that you face them, acknowledge that these negative feelings exist before they lead to mild depression. 
  • Look To The Future: It’s just a delay in plans. Look inwards and find things to be thankful for. Gratitude has a way of uplifting the spirit and putting things in perspective. Please focus on the good things about the postponement. It is not the end of the world; after all, you will still get married to the love of your life. That’s the most fundamental thing. Your life together is beautiful, as is your unique love. So keep that in mind while you start making new wedding plans.
  • Make New Plans: Accept the changes and appreciate the fact that the wedding will hold in the future. Start looking forward to a new date. Revisit your old plans if you have them written down somewhere. Take time to review what you want for your significant. Speak about the likely new date with your fiancé, book an event planner, and start planning towards your new date. Never allow the postponement to affect your new wedding plans.
