Post Wedding Blues

Today out of nowhere I got really depressed that my wedding day is over. Anyone else have this after their wedding? If so what did you do about it?

Re: Post Wedding Blues

  • It's most likely not "blues" that you're feeling but rather boredom.  You had so much to do while planning your wedding that it sucked away most of your free time and conversation topics.  Now that it's all over, you're left with a giant void of time and another person staring across from you (your H) asking "what do we do now?"

    Try to remember what you did for fun in your spare time before you started planning.  Maybe you two could take up a new hobby together or sign up for a class (cooking or golf maybe).   Don't forget your friends who helped you with your planning, now is the time to make plans with the again without any wedding talk.

  • I agree w/SMW-I felt different after coming back to work after our honeymoon b/c I no longer had any planning to do.  After planning the wedding for over a year and then not having that to do anymore, was a jolt to my system b/c for awhile it took up the majority of my time.  Many brides say they are glad when the planning is all over and I was to a point b/c it was stressful at times but I also missed it for a few months after the wedding.  It helped finding other projects to do and like SMW said, it was great to realize that I had a lot more free time to hang out with my friends that I didn't see as often while planning for the wedding.

  • Definitely felt bored afterward, and a little sad that its all over... but I tried to put my energy and time into something new.  I have been reading more... I bought a wii, which is soooo fun... and I am going to (eventually) start a blog. : )

  • I didn't really have it much right after the wedding. We went right into house mode and then we were both in a wedding. We have been going full force with house re-modeling. Now that our 1 year anniversary is coming all I can think about is what I was doing this time last year and now I have the wedding blues. I think it's normal like post pardom (sp?) after a baby. Like pp said try to find somthing else to fill your time.
