Do you have Bride Brain?

Is your wedding the only thing you are thinking about these days? Do you sit at work and daydream about centrepieces, and unique favours for your guests? Most Brides during the planning process are always thinking about their wedding in one way, shape or form.

"I shouldn't eat that ice cream, I have a dress to fit into"
"Will my bridesmaid look good in that colour?"
"How much money do we have left in our budget for decorations?"
"I love that band! I have GOT to book them for our reception!"

For the next 12 months or less, you will be thinking about your wedding in some way or another. It's normal.
This is the biggest day of your life, and you want it to be perfect. So, make notes, doodle your ideas on paper, create inspiration boards on-line, join bridal chat forums like BridalTweet, and read wedding & event related blogs. With all of the information you've gathered, all of the ideas you've seen, read, heard and collected, you are bound to have a little bit of what we in the industry call, "Bride Brain".

It's okay to have Bride Brain - as long as you can still focus on other things like your career, your relationship with your fiance, your family and other social gatherings not directly related to your up-coming wedding. Have no shame in thinking, talking and dreaming about your wedding - that is just one of the many special things about being a Bride. You are only a Bride for a short while in your lifetime, so enjoy it and make the most of the time you have being the centre of attention - just be sure not to get carried away and become a Bridezilla.
