Honestly I feel completly burnt out. I love my job, it's actually a place where I can relax.

Currently building a house with my soon wife and we are doing so much on our own. Currently painting and laying the floor and in two weeks we are planning on moving in.

On top of that we have a "big" wedding on the 19th July (small with family) and 20th July (family and friends) at a different location and so much organising going on. Heck, I am talking about stuff I never thought we ever needed and needs to be done because I just take it for granted if I go to weddings but every detail is so much work. From name cards, where to seat family/ friends, drinks, speech organising, food, cakes,... the list goes on.

It was never planned that house construction and wedding will be in the same year but our company took forever to start the house (november 2023) and now we are in our final steps of the house (finally!) and I am so exhausted.

Today in one month I think I am going to feel very good. Wedding is over, we eventually live in the new house and I can focus on my hobbies again.

Try and take a little time for yourself if you can, an afternoon off or even an hour or two to just relax. All the stuff you're doing is hard work and you deserve a little me time. You don't want to burn out before your wedding. Congrats on the house and the wedding, I hope everything goes how you want it to.
