Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
The day before my wedding, all I did was cry because I was leaving the home I grew up in and my family. But the morning of my wedding, something came over me and I was extremely calm. I only cried once and it was for like 5 seconds as I left my house.
A lot of brides have said they had this strange feeling of calm. I am sure everything will be perfect and you will look amazing.
You are getting married in 5 days!!!!

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
I totally understand, because I felt the same exact way. I was so excited to be getting married, but didn't want to be standing in front of everyone at the ceremony, afraid something would go wrong, etc. But honestly, once you see your soon to be husband, nothing else matters. Once I saw him, i forgot everyone else was there, my stress completely dissolved, and all I could think about was how amazing it felt to be there with him. I know it's hard to not get stressed at all about it, but just remember that your day will be amazing!!

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
Deanna, don't worry about it. I was nervous before my wedding too. I was terrified that I was going to trip walking down the isle and was shaking up until minute I started walking down the isle and looking at my DH.

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
i'm going to have the same issue D....i'm in therapy for it NOW because i know it's going to be so bad....
what i've learned so far is to try & focus on your FH while you are walking up the aisle....
also try and ask specific people who KNOW this issue you have to sit on the aisle - so they can either make funny faces at you, just give you a reassuring smile or anything you want really...
i have a session tonight - if i learn anything else...i promise to write ya!!
i'm also going to pop a xanax before the ceremony....

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
I think most brides feel the way that you feel.. It's only normal. My nervousness didn't hit me until after our rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding. I didn't sleep all night and was super nervous about walking down the aisle (scared I was going to trip) and afraid I was going to forget what the priest was saying when it came my turn to say the vows.
Trust me, when it's happening you will be fine. I thought I was going to cry walking down the aisle but I was in so much shock I didn't.
I know this is a normal feeling but you will be okay. Trust me...

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
It is SOOOO normal to feel this way, and normal to break out ...I did so bad the week before. It is like a year or more of focusing on planning, then you realize it is a week away and your like holy sh**...The time flies, just try to stay focused on enjoying this time, even when there is still a lot to do. This happens once, and remember time still runs and your still going to get married, even if you stumble on your words or have a pimple the day of.... MakeUp is a beautiful thing!!! Stay calm and remember to ENJOY it all because in two weeks or so you will be amazed at how fast it all went...

It is so true..I had facials and spent so much $$$$ and my face was the best it could have been, then a week before I looked horrible...The day of the wedding it seemed to clear and the makeup artist JN did an awesome job... Try to sleep and take care of yourself...You will be beautiful!!!

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
Deanna don't be nervous.
I wasn't nervous at all - until I heard my music, and then I got all weak kneed. Just walked down the aisle smiling, looking only at my future husband because if I looked at anyone else I would lose it. For some stupid reason, I remembered to hold my bo-k at belly button level, not right under my chin. When I got up front, it was just us and Rev. Burns and my nervousness disappeared.
I hate being the center of attention and I hate having my pic taken, but I had a blast at my wedding and it shows in the pics.

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
I was exactly the same way, I would say don't worry, but you can't.. And I'm sure you can stop thinking about everything when you go to sleep at night and you probally can't get rid of the stomach pains either Its all normal.. I broke out and had a pizza face the week before, yet I was so excited.. The day of I woke up and was SO CALM.. Till my flower issues but the day of the feeling you get you can't recapture any other day so enjoy it.. I thought I was going to throw up right before my ceremony from being so scared to go up in front of everyone.. It was just DH and I in the bridal suite 10 mins before and I was convincing him to ditch his vows, cause I didn't think I could read what I wrote anymore he was like ok! we did go through with it though, and if it helps you face the person marrying you more then you think so you don't see the guests as much.. DH was shaking so bad it was so cute!! Enjoy, its such an experience, but all completely normal!!! I feel for ya!

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
I was the most nervous about the ceremony as well, I didn't know how I would feel with all those people looking at me. But honestly, the day of my wedding I was so calm and the ceremony was one of my favorite parts, we had so much fun!

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
I think you're feeling exactly as you should be feeling a few days before your wedding. I'll get back to you and let you know how I feel
Just try to stay as calm as possible. I know that right now I am stressed by my skin as well. I keep telling myself that I'm not stressed, but I wake up every morning with a new zit and dry patches all over my face, which I get when I'm stressed! All you can do is your best to stay calm. Hope venting on here and talking to us will help that!!!

Re: Why am I sooooo nervous
I'm feeling the same way. The stress is not a good feeling, but I'm sure we'll be fine.
4 more days date twin and then we can sit back and enjoy all that we've worked for!!!
