What to Do When a Wedding Organization Becomes Stressful

Q: My fiancee and I are planning to be married in six weeks and he keeps procrastinating his part of the planning. It is small with just family but there are still things to be done. What should I do?

A: You may want to talk to him and let him know that “we” have some things we need to prioritize for us to meet the deadlines. Let him know what you are doing and decide together what still needs to be done and ask him to commit as he has some responsibilities while you feel you are doing your part. You are in this together. Ask yourself what is something that you can do now to practice self-care so you are focused on taking extreme self-care of you? How can you own your power to practice self-care regardless of what your fiancee is doing? No matter what, take care of yourself and get your needs met in a healthy way. 

Preparing for your wedding ceremony is supposed to be a very exciting time for both of you. Let him know this and you want this to be not only exciting but fun. With communication and preparation, this exciting event should be one for you both to treasure.
