58: Yes, The Post-Wedding Blues are Real; Here's How to Skip Them

Unbridely - Modern Wedding Planning

Imagine your wedding planning is like the unfolding and riveting story of an adventure novel and your wedding is the last chapter where everything comes together.

It’s when the drama gets resolved, the narrative comes full circle and the heroes (that’s you and your fiancé) have their time to shine.

But what if the final chapter of your story was not as satisfying as you’d hoped? Maybe the closing remarks weren’t hopeful or filled with meaning, maybe one of your favourite people didn’t get their justice, or maybe the ending was so spectacular that you’re quite simply devastated that there’s no more to come.

And just like when you’ve closed the book on an incredible read, finished binging your new fave series or just heard the final siren of the season, the time after your wedding celebrations can be a big letdown.

It's commonly known as the post-wedding blues.

And while it’s not the end of the world, it’s a bummer and with a couple of tweaks to what is most probably already in your plans, you can nix most of the unpleasantness and get on with your married life with renewed vigour and purpose!

So today I’m going to share:

• The different ways that the post-wedding blues can show up in your life,
• 9 different reasons why you might be feeling this way, and
• How to skip most of the bullshit too!
