Does anyone do this? We have a wedding tonight and I dont know as many people as my husband does, so to get 'relaxed' I just popped open a bottle of wine and figured Ill just start early. My dh is worried cause he thinks by the time we get there, Im gonna be crocked...I know I will be fine. I sometimes do this before going out to a bar or something but have never really done it before a wedding..I just feel so nervous about it and I want to calm my nerves.

I do! Sometimes I have a glass or two beforehand, not enough to make me visibly drunk, just enough to take the edge off and relax a little! perfectly normal!

YES i do but i would only have 1 glass. Because i usually have 1-2 at the cocktail hour and then some drinks at dinner...So you do have to becareful

I've done it. But only one glass at home- it won't do to be bombed before you leave! And for me, it does not take much these days.

I had one glass just before and I am thinking of having another right before I leave. I made sure I had a few crackers with it!
We wont be able to make cocktail hour because dh is working and we wont make it in time so I figured, may as well catch up with everyone else before I leave. I am so happy to hear I am not the only one who does this! LOL
I usually am so shy and I need to relax a bit!

This is the real reason I am drinking at all...I need my nerves to relax to forget all the drama! Although, I dont want it to backfire on me! Now that would be FUN!

It was at the sandcastle and it took everything in me not to go off! They are such losers! They made sure they danced right in front of us..came over to our table ALOT and not one word..like we did something wrong!
I wound up coming home with a migraine because of the stress and not to mention had all those hurt feelings stirred up again. Ugh..at least its over!

Re: Does anyone else do this?
actually did this last night but it didnt work out the way I had planned. I had date # 4 and we when he got to my house I opened a bottle of wine- we were planning on having a glass or two before heading out for dinner . Well two glasses later I was a little tipsy- so we decided to continue with the wine and we stayed in... I am NOT complaining though...

LOL Kdelace! I agree, good for you!
It really didnt work for me either. It reacted the wrong way on my nerves and instead of making me more relaxed it made me 'angry' and I had to use the bathroom like 100 times before the reception even started! When it was all over I came home with SUCH A MIGRAINE! Next time, I think Ill just try meditation. LOL
