15 Signs You're Too Obsessed With the Wedding

11. You’re Too Obsessed If … You’re posting pretty wedding images on Pinterest all day during work.

This could actually cost you your job if the bosses catch on or if your company monitors your online activities.

How to Dial It Down: Schedule a reserved Pinterest Time (such as an hour after dinnertime), where you wind down from your busy day with inspirational photos. Make it your evening ritual, but limit "research" to an hour only, so that your groom doesn’t feel abandoned while you’re zoned out in front of your computer.

12. You’re Too Obsessed If … You’re calling your groom at work to talk about the wedding plans.

He may start off patient, but you’ll soon hear exasperation in his voice, and that can escalate into arguments. 

How to Dial It Down: Don’t think that e-mailing him at work is better, since you’ll just sit there fuming when he doesn’t respond right away. Respect his worktime and the clear mind he needs to do his job – just like you need at yours – and don’t risk either of your jobs with personal calls. Make it a point to wait until you get home to discuss important wedding issues. Just allow him to decompress first—you don't want to overwhelm the poor guy with 20 tasks the second he walks through the door.

13. You’re Too Obsessed If … You’re thinking of selling your grandmother’s jewelry.

You can't stop thinking about ways to save money so you can buy more things for the wedding.

How to Dial It Down: Lock those precious jewels in a lockbox and don’t even think about it. Family heirlooms are way too important to lose just to get a taller wedding cake or a designer dress.

14. You’re Too Obsessed If … People are telling you to elope “for your own good.”

They’re worried about you, especially if your obsessions are making you stressed-out, angry, or depressed.

How to Dial It Down: If you’re experiencing symptoms of stress and depression, please visit your doctor. A professional can help you determine whether your wedding-related obsession is actually just a cover-up for deeper-rooted issues. In a few weeks, you’ll be back to your old self again…maybe even better.

15. You’re Too Obsessed If … You’re thinking more about the wedding plans than you are about who you’re marrying.

How to Dial It Down: Tell your groom how lucky you are to spend the rest of your life with him, write him love notes, thank him for asking you to marry him, talk about the future you envision with him, and make sure he still has you right there with him. Be the woman he fell in love with, and bliss will be there…for both of you.
