I'm not sure the best place to put this, since BWW is mostly populated by brides-to-be, but I guess it's still the most appropriate forum.
So, I'm just wondering--for those who have been married (recently or not-so-recently) did you have any funny or surprising thoughts/revelations about your wedding and/or the planning process?
I'm finding myself laughing at how stressed over certain details I was. It's been less than two months since our wedding, and I'm already thinking back on the planning 'stress' and thinking how silly a lot of it was. Worrying over inviting (or not) certain people, caring about the specific color of the leaves scattered on our aisle, deciding whether or not to see the groom before the ceremony... in retrospect, now that it's all over, I can't even believe I thought such things were important! I really over-estimated the importance of... well, just about everything.
I was a relatively low-stress bride (I had my specific things that I was concerned with, which all came together perfectly), so it's funny to me to look back and realize that I was in fact over-worrying about some stuff.
Anyway, I thought it was funny today, reading through some BWW threads and thinking "You won't care about any of that after the wedding is over!" But I did it, too. We're silly, us women-folk
