Pre-Wedding Jitters

Once the question is popped, every woman, now a bride-to-be (yay!), is in full wedding mode. Stress, nerves, and the jitters are just a part of the experience, but in order to counteract those pre-wedding jitters here are some helpful tips:

~ Take time for yourself by being all by yourself (you are about to spend your life with one person, but you are always number one in your life).
~ Deep breathing can help relax your thoughts and brings oxygen to your brain so you are able to think more clearly.
~ Try not to overanalyze. As women we tend to do this and it can be harmful to our health and relationship.
~ If there are problems with your fiance, then address those problems but first take the time to assess if they are short-term problems or if you believe they are long-term (short-term might not be something you need to bring up unless they persist).
~ Remember the beautiful memories you already have shared with your fiance and imagine the ones you will make together in the future.
~ Think back on the moment you first knew you wanted to spend the rest of your life with your fiance and why you now cant imagine not sharing your life with them.

Keep in mind that pre-wedding jitters are incredibly common and if you are bride who doesn't experience them, then count yourself lucky! Don't worry that something might be wrong with you for questioning the marriage, it is normal to do so especially since marriage is one of the most important commitments you will make. No pressure, though! When you know, you just know.
