Will it ever end? I have been planing for a year and eight months know! I though I had a lot done, but it seems as though more and more little details keep poping up and there are starting to bug me. Like cake napkins do we really need them with our name on it? I also think our family is trying to give us input and we have done fine up to this point why do they need to give us there thoughts now??? ok I know I need to breath...lol .....Thank you all in advanced!The napkin thing was from my MIL...lol....yes it was a long time ago they got married! Thank you all for letting me I am not nutts it just normal wedding stuff!The napkin thing was from my MIL...lol....yes it was a long time ago they got married!

Little details will always pop up. You have to make your peace with the fact that some things will be missed and something is going to go wrong. Once you do that you will be able to enjoy your day. Unfortunately this is the most stressful time. and NO you do not NEED cake napkins with your name on it. I have 39 days to go and I've decided to not do some things (like a menucard) just so I won't be stressed. Try to breathe and remember people will give input but its you and your fiances day!

Do whatever you want. It's your wedding, not theirs.And no, you don't need your names on the napkins, in my opinion. People will be too busy stuffing themselves with the (hopefully) delicious cake to notice that stuff.

i could guarantee you that alot of those details are things that are not important and people will not even remember you had in your wedding. relax and think about the real reason you are doing all this and believe me you will be ok. I'm 3 months away from mine and i sometimes get crazy like that too and I take a breather and realize those things are not that important.

My sister had a lot of these little odds n ends popping up also. You know what I say,...its supposed to be the happiest day of your life. Who cares if your names are on the cake napkins! As long as the big details are done, why worry about the little things. Try to ignore the family. If you were doing fine without their input, then keep going as you were. Good luck and congratulations!I'm sure your day will turn out great!!

I guess this is the point where everyone else starts realising that the wedding is going to be soon so they feel like they need to 'help'! Just tell them, thanks - but you have it all organised and under control. There is no need to do the napkins and little things like that unless you really want to. Don't worry - it will all be over really soon. Once the wedding day comes around (if you are anything like me) you won't even care! As long as you have planned well it will be wonderful. I know I was stressed (and even almost crying) up to the night day before the wedding - then on the wedding day I was really bored waiting for the actual ceremony to start! (It wasn't till 4pm so we had a fair bit of spare time - even after the make up, hair and photos!) As I said - as long as you have done enough planning and organising before hand then the day will run smoothly and everyone (including you) will have a lovely day. Just don't let it get to you too much if you can help it!

I'm going to venture a guess that the person telling you that you need cake napkins is someone that got married a lllooonnngggg time ago. Times have changed and expectations vary from one wedding to another. Spend your money in places that are more in line with what you want out of this day. I've been married 29 years and just recently help plan my son's wedding and now helping a friend with hers. You will get advice from alot of people because they are excited for you. I'm sure they mean well, but in the end your day is your day. Listen, be kind and just do what YOU want! No regrets!

All I can say is don't sweat the small stuff. It's the honest truth - you will not notice any of those things on the day of the wedding. It's going to be like you are the only two people in the room and nothing else will matter...I think there will always be SOMETHING that you can do up until the last minute - but you just have to let some things go. Trust me, things that I thought would matter just didn't that day. I had to wait until I got the pictures back from the photographer to see some of the details that I had completely missed that day!Don't worry. Everything will fall into place and be beautiful. ♥

Just think about this: will you remember you didn't have napkins with your name on them? probably not. yes it's a nice touch, but who cares? when these little things pop up, ask yourself if you will remember it, and if your guests will notice it. if it's something you don't care about, delegate, delegate, delegate!! if you soon to be mother in law insists on the cake napkins with your names, kindly let her know it's not really important to you, but she is more than welcome to order them if she thinks it's necessary. other little things, ask others to help when it gets too overwhelming. when the day comes, you won't notice most of the tiny things anyway:)
