There's a balance there, but do pay attention if you think you can do it all. You may turn down the offers from friends or family members to help. You may think that you can do everything on your own.
But the real fact is that if the bride delegates responsibility to others, things can work more smoothly than trying to do it all yourself. However, it can be difficult for a bride to delegate responsibilities and learn to let others help her.
Not that you should be totally hands-off, of course. Picking out your bridal dress, of course, is something the bride needs to have a hand in. Remember, it generally takes months for the you to find and get the perfect dress to wear, so it is quite difficult to delegate the responsibility to someone else. Here's a thought about your dress once you have it: you may be tempted to try the dress even once before the wedding. However, keeping the it in the hands of other person can minimize any damaages and your dress can be protected for the big day.
There are various last minute details that need to be taken care of. These details may include putting out the centerpieces, setting out the place cards and arranging the flowers. These tasks are not difficult to handle, but you have other things to worry about and since everything should be perfect, somebody else should be given responsibility to handle these tasks. This is the best opportunity for the bride to understand that other people can do that and other jobs in a perfect way and if there is a little bit of mistake on their part, then it should be dealt with. If a bride keeps worrying about the little things, she is robbing herself of the best part of her wedding day.
Once you are able to understand that to let someone else take over the small responsibilities is a great thing and there are fewer details to take care of, you can relax and enjoy the process. Evebn if the things you delegate may not appear significant, it can surely help you.
Here's a final thought: addressing thank you cards after the marriage can be a tedious job. You might be tired after the hectic schedule that you have been undergoing for weeks and left with a little energy to do this. Consider asking some of your bridesmaids to do it for you. Naturally this depends on your relationship with them. but you might be surprised. It's worth a try!
So, shed off your responsibilities and enjoy your wedding as well as your honeymoon.
