How To Cope With Post-wedding Blues
The big day is over with all the excitement and fun
, guests have all departed, gifts exchanged and the wedding cake cut, now what next? This often marks the onset of a condition referred to as the "post wedding blues" also " wedding withdrawal syndrome" and learning how to deal with it is something that will greatly improve your relationship and make you a better couple.
In this article I bring you some strategies on how to cope with post wedding blues. After you're done reading; you'll see how and why it's important that you maintain those special relationships you created before the wedding, why you should keep small parties going and basically all the other stuff that will make you happy.
Wedding planning though an exciting time can also leave you drained emotionally, financially and physically. The event that took you hours and months of planning, the event that was the prime focus of your thoughts and energies, what it suddenly comes to an end it triggers a combination of emotions that are something of an anticlimax, the feeling of being let-down.
One of the best ways to keep yourself in the moment and maintain that special-event-feeling is to immediately begin planning for another special event. Whether you look ahead toward a small party for close friends, participate in planning a friend or family member's wedding, or even consider a renewal ceremony for yourself, it is the act of being involved that is a terrific cure for those blues.
Consider all the experience and organizational skills you have developed and honed over months and months. Put them to use by offering them to a friend or loved one. Your advice can prove a truly wonderful gift to someone about to embark on the path you have just traveled. While we're on the subject of sharing your wedding, consider designing a simple web site on which you can share photos, wedding-related potpourri and, if you'd like, some "words of wisdom" to others.
Continue the togetherness that is a core factor in a wedding and use that feeling to bring friends and/or family together to share those special moments by reviewing them. Put on the wedding video, order a pizza and relive the joy with people you care about and who care about you. Plan an informal get-together for friends, a large party, a family reunion or even a corporate event.
These are some of the good ways you can keep post wedding blues at bay. Connecting to other people, as you will remember, is a big part of planning a wedding. Keep those warm and wonderful personal interactions going; keep in touch with friends and family members by planning for one or more functions.
Make entertaining a regular party of your new lives together and fill the empty spaces which may be especially apparent right after your wedding celebration. Focus on your future with your partner and hopefully, on the many happy days you will share, and think of your wedding as the stepping stone to marital bliss.
