Did any bride cry or have tears in her eyes during the ceremony

Original post by KRISTYRUSSELL

Just curious on this one, I held up fine until I heart the music playing for here comes the bride, I took the biggest deep breath of my life and did the walk up the aisle, I had some heavy tears in my eyes for sure, but I held up okay, good thing is the blusher did hide most of those tears on the way up the aisle, but it didnt hide all of them or all of those funny expressions I had on my face.
The pictures sure showed my facial expressions: so serious looking, so happy with such a Big smile on my face, then a little smile then back to serious. Then when we were sitting in our seats facing the alter, right before our vows, tears started rolling down my face . The little alter girl just stared at me the entire time I was up there, she wouldnt even blink or take her eyes off of me for one second, she also kept making cute amazing wow faces that it was cracking me up inside, girls she held me together a little otherwise I think I would of really been crying. She was so young and innocent, so when I was trying to get it together by breathing very deep or by holding my breath a few times to fight the tears, I would look deep into her eyes in kind of a trance and stare back at her, she made me smile so bright just by the look on her face. I look at the pictures now and say, wow that little girl was living through my eyes that day. Once we were announced Husband and Wife and we turned around to come down the aisle and face everyone I was like Oh my God, I am a mess, my face was so pinkish red & I had plenty of tears rolling down my face, and by the pictures I saw tears in my husbands eyes too. It was so nice to see them, as I only noticed them a little bit that day...

I was good until I saw my MOH crying, and then I broke down!

our cantor made us write 3 paragraphs about each other an we weren't allowed to see it. I cried when he read my husbands. Otherwise, I was fine!

I beamed from ear to ear walking down the aisle.. although 2 people have shots of me that looked like my eyes were rolling in the back of my head, so weird

I laughed through parts of the vows, and started jumping up and down when I knew the you may now kiss the bride was coming...ok not full on jumping, more of small hops. Everyone was cracking up. Joe and I have both had work related injuries this past year my step-father died and we have been stretched thin with buying the house so................in sickness and health all I thought of was Joe laying in the parking lot on the ice screaming for me because he slipped and broke his leg walking out to the car for the food tasting--------------------in good times and bad Tom dying and Joe being away in KT for ARMY Gaurd training moving in with him and is CRAZY messy house and dealing with my job switch
I couldn't help it I was just so excited that there were no tears just a HUGE smile and TONS of laughs It was a GREAT day

Nope. I cried a bit afterward, when we went up to the bridal suite to be alone for a little while. But during the ceremony? I didn't cry. I was so happy--I do cry from happiness sometimes, but not then. I felt so focused, and so elated. I was surprised that my voice sounded shaky when I said my vows, as I didn't think I was that nervous. It was a lot of different emotions. And then my husband grabbed me and kissed me SO hard at the end I just burst out laughing. I think he was was so excited, and had to hold himself back until the rabbi said he could kiss me, and then he let go. I should post the picture, I look like AAaaaaaahhh!!

My husband and I have been together since we were 16 and 17, so our wedding was a LONG time coming. I thought we would both be a mess. He teared up as I started to walk down the aisle, so he looked down for a little bit to compose himself. I was wondering why he wasin't looking at me! But then he looked up and started blowing me kisses, so I guess he got it together. I teared up during our vows, but I didn't actually shed a tear. I couldn't believe how composed we were- I guess we were just so freakin excited!

not at all.......I always thought I'd cry....but not at all. I was so excited and happy....and there was NO WAY I was letting that makeup job go anywhere!

In all seriousness....I was not very emotional b/c I was just soooo swept up with all of the excitement. It was surreal.

When I look at the photos, I cry.

Absolutely!!! I held up down the aisle with my 9 year old son walking me to my husband. But when it was time to say vows, I choked up a bit, composed myself, took a deep breath, and before I knew it, it was over. I teared up quite a bit, but who wouldn't on the happiest day of their life?

I was getting teary walking down the aisle- I walked down to the Irish Version of Ave Maria and the harpist was really moving! I also cried during my vows.

I cried a lot that day, esp when people would mention MIL who couldnt attend bc she was in ICU. DH cried too

I got teary eyed during my vows. I blinked liked a maniac to keep the tears from rolling and ruining my make-up. My videographer zoomed in very closely to catch the tears.

I was crying standing at the doors when they opened, when I was walking down the aisle, when my hubby said his vows and when I said mine.......There was alot of crying. ALL my girls were crying and MANY guests were crying.......we had a very emotional ceremony.....

Nope, I am not really an overly emotional person and dont cry often. I got a little choked up during the ketubah signing, but I tend to giggle when nervous so I did a bunch of laughing. I did cry during my dance with my dad, but he almost died last summer and spent several weeks in a coma so we were both crying at the fact that he was there to dance with me (in fact I think the whole room was teary)

I didnt' cry too much, which surprised me because I am a crier at everyone else's wedding!

I did cry a little walking down the aisle with my Dad... no tears though surprisingly.

But I did cry more at the reception than at the Mass which really surprised me.

Cried watching DH dance with his sister at the reception because his mom is passed.

Cried when I danced with my Dad at the reception.

when i heard the music for my entrance....for some reason i couldn't breathe for a second and the tears started cause i realized that this was the moment that we had been planning for the last two years.....and it was the last time i would walk as my 'daddy's little girl'...and now i was going to be a wife! so a few tears squeezed out...but i composed myself by the time i got to DH

i cried a teeny bit at the end before we were pronounced husband and wife, cause i was so excited!

I cried! I kept saying that there was no way I would but when my dad lifted my veil and I looked up and saw my big bro standing with the other GMs and my bro was crying that was when it all started. Then I looked at DH and cried pretty much the whole ceremony.

Re: Did any bride cry or have tears in her eyes during the ceremony

I surprised myself I didn't cry. I almost lost it walking down the aisle when I saw a good friend but after that I made a point not to look at anyone. During vows when I was looking into dh's eyes I came close and then decided I couldn't look straight at him. If the tears came it would be hard to stop them :)

I was a beaming bride all day !!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep....I was hysterical walking down the aisle...i made about 100 faces in the 30 seconds that I walked down because I was trying to stop myself from crying. At one point I even did this deep breathing thing to calm myself. And then I cried during our vows too! I was an emotional mess until we were pronounced husband and wife


me too!!

I thought I would cry, but didn't. When I finally got down the aisle and took fh hand I got a little choked up but then I was fine. Nothing but smiles for the entire ceremony.
