Becoming Bridezilla

Having recently commented to my husband of 2 and a half years that a very close friend of mine is turning into psycho bride, I am now told that the 6 page letter of instruction that I wrote to our venue before our wedding day was just one of the contributing factors to my being far and above many a psycho bride. So having now been officially labeled Bridezilla, this got me wondering just what is it that makes us otherwise rational beings turn? One minute engaged and over the moon, the next a stressed out, snappy 'bride to be' snapping orders at anyone who will listen as well as those who won't?

You can be pretty sure that none of us actually set out to become Bridezilla but what we do set out to do is have a bummin fantastic day - OUR day, the way WE want it, with all of OUR wishes granted so God help anyone who puts a foot wrong! According to our research, the average bride spends over 100 hours planning her big day. Add to that the countless hours spent dreaming about it and reading about it and no wonder we get so het up!

Believe it or not, planning a wedding can and should be an enjoyable process, andd there are many ways to make sure that you not only enjoy the big day but that you make planning it an enjoyable experience as well. A good place to start is the Mrs2Be forum where you can chat with other brides to be and gain invaluable advice from our Mrs2Be Team. We will also soon add a full article with tips on how to cope with 'becoming Bridezilla' and how to thank those around you while you flip your lid left, right and centre.
