It is very common to feel a bit blue after the wedding day. After all, you spent months if not years planning this special day and then it is over so quickly! That is completely normal and the feeling will ease over time. Some tips to make this easier include:

  • Look forward to your wedding photos and videos and reliving the day through those images
  • Talking with your new husband or wife about your favourite parts of the day
  • Perhaps delaying the honeymoon a bit so there is something else to be excited about and so that it is not over all at once
  • Remembering that the wedding day is just the start of your beautiful journey together as husband and wife and you will experience many more wonderful moments together!

I hope this helps a little :)

Hi! You have a right to feel all types of emotions after the wedding, a lot of excitement has gone into planning, where you have all your friends and family present for your special day, all the little things you did to add that extra personalised touch for your wedding day. Once the wedding day is over it is important to reflect all the positive elements from the day, discuss this with your husband looking at photos, talk to suppliers and provide positive feedback. It is nice to talk to other guests and get them to tell you stories of stuff that happened that you missed because you were busy, it is normal for a couple not to witness everything you are so caught up in the day! Once you return from your honeymoon, start to make new goals as a couple and for yourself, carry your experience to other friends and family to help them plan their wedding, but most of all enjoy that you had a successful wedding day and will have more exciting occasions in the upcoming future!
