As OMH's what advice would you give to those next to get married
I would tell them to relax, don't stress the little things. Everything will all come together in the end. And to remember its all about the love that you and FH have for each other and not just the party.

Great advice. Mine would be similar.
Don't stress. Everything will work out perfectly that day, and if not, it's just one day. You have the rest of your life to spend with the man you love, and that is what matters. Too many people focus on the wedding, not the marriage.
Dont stress about weather. I did this and it was like a hurricane on our wedding day, but that day it did not matter at all. I could care less! I was all smiles, and our pictures came out sick with the crazy weather

Expect things to happen and then you wont be disapointed as much when they do. you will still have an amazing day! Choose your vendors carefully and dont rush..including your rh.

-- if you aren't sure if you want to invite somebody or not, just invite them (as long as you have the budget for it). I wasn't sure about a few people and ended up not inviting them to save money ... i totally regret that they weren't there.
-- although my pro photos suck, i'm ok with it now (took me a while to get to the acceptance stage) because i realize that it's the memories that are important, not the pictures.

Find some time during the day to sit with your DH and just hold hands and process it. Everyone pulls you in 12 million directions that day - make sure to find some time to just be the two of you.

Shop around more, and you get what you pay for. You go cheap, you get cheap. (on most things).

1. (Best advise I got before was this one) Take Moments to stop everything and enjoy.... - right after your ceremony...take a moment with you and your DH...just 5 minutes to really let it sink in that you just got married. - at the reception...take another moment and just observe...look at all the people there celebrating you...feel the love.
2. Love is in the details...but that doesn't mean you have to let the details drive you crazy...
3. If you are paying for your own wedding...Don't be afraid to tell anyone 'if you want an opinion, pay for it..' You'll be surprised how quickly people will shut up and it'll make things so much easier
4. Love it. If you don't absolutely love what you're doing, buying, your vendors... you'll have regrets

I've said it before, and I'll say it again....
ELOPE.
Nobody takes me seriously. Weddings make people nuts. Its a day about you and your FH and the love you share, not about your SIL and her whining about the BM dress or your mother and her distaste for your dress/flowers/hall or your MIL and her dramatics. If you really want it to be just about you two and your love....ELOPE.
Do you think TPTB will boot me off for suggesting something that would ultimately put them out of business?
