Ive lost my wedding mojo!!

MrsG2013, 23 July, 2013 at 14:16 Posted on Planning 0 9

What has happened?!

I was dead excited this weekend, woke up Monday - nothing. I get married on Saturday and this is the least excited i've EVER been. Its the rehearsal tonight and i'm just like "yeah whatever..." what has happened? How do I get it back? Has anyone else felt like this?

To top it off i'm really beating myself up about it, questioning why I'm being like this but I'm getting married at the WEEKEND.

I don't have anything weddingy to do to get me back onto it, it's all happening Thursday and Friday. Maybe when I finish work tomorrow ready for my 5 days off i'll pick myself up? ☹️

    I wouldn't look at it in a bad way. Is everything ready?

    I would relax Smiley smile

    Ive been so organised so everything is done! Just need to fill the favour boxes and decorate the venue. Maybe this is why? I pictured the last week running round like a headless chicken but im sat doing my normal everday things! lol xxx

    I think that could be why? Perhaps it just doesn't feel 'real' for you yet - especially doing all the mundane everyday tasks. If everyone keeps asking you about it (are you excitied?) type questions that's probably not helping.

    You might find the rehersal makes it all seem a lot more like it's happening. I would'nt dwell on it too much as I'm sure this is the 'calm before the over-excited storm'.

    So jealous. I was a flaming wreck. Enjoy the calm. Once it's here (and you're off) it'll all kick off and be magical ?

    This is very common. There is probably a gaZillion threads about wedding Mojos (or lack thereof) don't fret.

    If I'm honest - I didn't get mine back Smiley sad

    The last week before the wedding just felt weird, it didn't feel real even though people kept talking about it. I expected this giggly excitedness to hit me but it never came! Then on the wedding day I still didn't get it, even when I got into my dress. I felt a bit like I was going through the motions. Don't get me wrong, I was happy but there was no floating on a cloud feeling. I always thought I would cry at the ceremony but even then it didn't feel quite real, so I said my bits, we got married and it just felt the same.

    I had a lovely day. I love being married, but I do feel bad that I'm not skipping around saying how it was the happiest day of my life and how I'm buzzing.

    Maybe it was because it was hard work to organise it, or because our relationship/life will be exactly the same even though we're husband and wife.

    Well we went for the rehearsal and I finally felt excited again. Sat in church for one hour - no vicar. Kids were running riot, getting fed up of waiting they just wanted to do their readings. The vicar finally turned up, flustered and admitted she'd got carried away with gardening. She had a bad attitude. I told her how I wanted everything but she confused it all and mixed it all up and didn't let us run through it because the next couple had already arrived so now I feel even more nervous, anxious and fed up about it! I feel like I dont know what im doing at my own wedding!

    However Im going to do my favours tonight and try and get my mojo back! xxx

    This is totally how I imagine I'm going to feel! I've got to the point where people keep saying to me- "Not long to go now! Are you excited?" and my response is an eye roll and an "Ugh". I think (and this is going to sound awful) that I'll be glad when it's all over and we're off on honeymoon, which I CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT!!!! Even whenever OH and I talk about things it's always "Well, once the wedding's out the way..."! It's becoming a mantra!

    I lost my mojo a couple of months ago, and have been so laid back about everything since then.

    I have the odd day where it comes back and I'm able to get some stuff done, but nothing like it was.

    At the moment, with 10 days to go, I go from moments of excitement and nerves.

    But mostly I still don't really feel like it is my wedding, which means the mojo is not coming out either.
