Post Wedding thoughts: some of the loveliest moments, but did anyone cry the next day!? Happy wedding season everyone

Kelsea, on March 13, 2022 at 1:40 PM Posted in Married Life 0 11
I just got married two days ago and I’m overjoyed to finally make this commitment to my partner. I had some of the loveliest moments of my life, but also felt it was the most stressful week of my life. It was supposed to severely thunderstorm the entire week and I checked the radar obsessively every day. It ended up gently sprinkling and perfect, so I obviously feel silly for letting that get to me. I noticed the little things that went wrong, like my dj really didn’t use my playlist, but feel truly joyful for the love I felt from family and seeing my husband’s watery eyes and smile all day made me love him more than ever. I definitely felt sad it was over and wished the night hadn’t ended so abruptly (they had a 10 pm end time) and found myself very emotionally drained the next day. Crying heavily when all my friends and family left to go home. There’s so much hype for such a short blip of a party and I’m SO blessed for my amazing photographer and photo memories…I also wanted to know if anyone else felt that post wedding roller coaster and sadness? I also will share one of my Pics. I am obsessed with the sneak peak. and any future brides with fear of overcast/rain, it makes for the BEST pictures. Well wishes everyone and future brides!!!Post Wedding thoughts: some of the loveliest moments, but did anyone cry the next day!? Happy wedding season everyone 1

    Gorgeous!! I’m so glad you had such a lovely day—and we all can put a lot of pressure on ourselves to have a “perfect” day. It’s a highly emotional time and I think it’s pretty understandable to cry the next day!
    I did not—we left for our honeymoon super early the next morning so it was easy to move on from our amazing party and focus on the best vacation of our livesz

    Beautiful pictures Andi have to say I love your bouquet!! Just gorgeous. Sometimes it's easy to focus on the details and control everything when we're stressed, which causes even more stress. I would have been a little miffed if the DJ didn't use the playlist that he requested. Unless he actually didn't ask you for one.. then he did his job and DJ'd, right? My wedding is next week, so you're experience is helpful. I'm going to trust that everybody I'm paying will do their job and I'll try not to stress out over everything this week.

    Beautiful photos! Congratulations! My sister got married about 4 months ago and she told me her DJ didn't follow her playlist either (she said he played some of the songs, but not all). He's actually going to be my DJ in May, so I'm just going to choose some must have songs and let him do the rest.

    Beautiful pictures! My wedding is next week and I am afraid of being depressed afterwards when it's all over for sure.

    I know what you mean! We were very busy directly after the wedding and leading into our honeymoon and the following day and the day after, I did start to feel pretty overwhelmed with just how much there was to do in terms of tidying up the house we stayed at, carting all the wedding stuff home and figuring out what to keep and what to fling out, then of course packing for our honeymoon and leaving on time for our flight.

    I came back to work last week and was SO TIRED. I am still very, very tired. I think it was just.. whatever stress and tension the body is holding finally being able to be released, and that could be through daytime naps, crying, etc. Even if you think you're fine and not that frazzled, I think most of us internalize it and hold it in our muscles instead. Plus, we hadn't travelled on a plane anywhere for over 2 years and I'd forgotten how stressful and tiring all the waiting around can be!

    These photos are lovely! COngratulations

    And i get how you feel and I think crying is completely normal. I was very sad (and hungover) the next day. Honestly it took a couple of weeks for me to completely recover from the exhaustion of the couple weeks before the wedding. I hope the feelings passed.

    I hope your wedding was beautiful!!!

    The DJ played some of my songs. Some guests loved it, some didn't. You can't win them all. He definitely knew that I created a list, but I think there was some glitch with his internet that impacted him and overall not worth dwelling about. I think the hardest part of the whole thing is how fast I felt like it ended (our reception was about 4.5 hours).

    Congrats to you and your new husband!

    These photos are incredible.. so beautiful! It's not irrational to stress about the weather. I did the same!! It snowed 2 days before my wedding and we were getting married outside. I hardcore stressed about it! But it all melted and things were just fine. I felt the wedding low too. That's totally normal. Things to look forward to that can lift your mood, your first married all the holidays, first anniversary, and all the little things in between. It's nice having it over with in the sense that you don't have to stress. And being married is wonderful!
