Planning your wedding is an exciting journey filled with love and anticipation. Yet, the whirlwind of preparations can take a toll on your connection. And we’ve been there. A little pent up wedding planning anxiety leads to misplaced frustration towards your favorite person. It’s time to pause, breathe, and rediscover the romance. Here are five heartwarming ways to reconnect when the wedding task list starts to get a little stressful.
Our biggest tip: approach any of the ideas below with one rule: no discussion of wedding details or planning at all. Take our word for it, it’s okay to step away. You’ll benefit from the break, and the planning will be there when you return.
- Tea Breaks: A Relaxing Tradition
Unwind and reconnect over a calming cup of tea or a coffee chat. Create a cozy corner in your home or visit a new place that is void of wedding distractions. Reflect on your journey, talk about other happenings in your daily life, share laughter, and focus on being together solely for the company that you enjoy the most.
- Dance Away the Stress with Music
One of our personal favorites — dance party. Let music be your escape. Crank up your favorite tunes, and dance away the stress. Whether it’s a classic melody or a favorite genre, let the music draw you closer and remind you of the joy that awaits.
- Nature Escapes: Reconnect in the Great Outdoors
Unplug from wedding hustle with a nature escape. Plan a weekend getaway to a scenic spot – a park, beach, or hiking trail. Reconnect in the great outdoors, away from wedding stress. Let the fresh air and natural beauty frame your meaningful conversations.
- Comfort Food Date Nights
Reconnect over a comforting meal. Plan date nights around your favorite comfort foods – whether it’s a homemade dinner or a cozy evening at your beloved local spot. Breaking bread together creates a relaxed setting to discuss wedding plans without the pressure. Bonus tip: throw that wedding diet out the window and enjoy a decadent dessert.
- Write Love Letters: A Timeless Gesture
In this digital age, handwritten love letters hold unparalleled charm. Take a break from wedding texts. Express your feelings on paper, deepening your connection amidst wedding planning chaos.
Wedding planning is about the journey you take as a couple. When stress threatens to overshadow joy, these tips will strengthen your bond. Take time to nurture your relationship amidst the chaos. Your wedding will reflect the enduring love you share.
