You'd think that your 'happily ever after' moment would come naturally. The birds will sing, your man will become tastefully emotional when he sees you walk down the aisle, and your mother-in-law will agree with every wedding stipulation you propose. Wedding planning should be easy, but when it comes to your big day, it's certainly no cakewalk.

Many brides learn quickly that putting together the dream event they've been planning on Pinterest for decades is much harder than it sounds–and about $100k over budget. So for brides who are hanging by a thread and counting down the days until their wedding, here are a few tips that'll help you make it. 

For better or worse, stand up for yourself against your family members 'suggestions'. Make sure to plan some alone time with your future hubby on the wedding day so you don't forget the reason you're even getting married in the first place. And make sure your MOH is instructed to bring your food and water throughout the day–you'd be surprised how hungry you get in your skin-tight dress after a long day of smiles and toasts. 

Other than that, take a look at your fiancé every now and then, remind yourself that you love them dearly, and the rest will simply fall into place.
