I don't want to be a weepy bride!

Ok, so I am starting to get a little worried about crying on my wedding day. I get so emotional just thinking about it, and I'm absolutely certain that I won't be able to make it through the ceremony without a bunch of tears. When my fiance proposed to me, I cried and so did he. Joyful tears, but lots of them. He had really wanted to propose on the beach where we had our first date, but it was poring rain (I think we got about 10 inches of rain that day) and he did it at home. In retrospect, it was better that way because we were both so emotional. Is anyone else worried about this? I was just in Michaels looking at wedding stuff and I was getting all watery-eyed. I feel rediculous! I know FI will cry, but he's not wearing any makeup, so he's lucky. It's not that I am unhappy; I'm actually overwhelmed with happiness.

It is easy to say for me, since I don't shed tears easily, but: would it really be so bad to cry happy tears on your wedding day? Are you planning to wear heavy make-up? Because apart from the make-up, I don't think you should feel bad about it. No one is going to judge you for it.

i am absolutely POSITIVE i am going to burst into tears on at least 10 different occasions on my wedding day. i plan to tell my makeup artist to plan for this and to put me in waterproof eyeliner and mascara.  makeup is the only thing i am worried about - as eline said, no one judges brides for getting teary - in fact, it is practically expected! i just don't want to ruin my makeup...

I am going to crying A LOT!  I have just come to accept this.  FI is not emotional at all.

For me, I know that there is nothing I can do to prevent the waterworks.  It happens now when I listen to sappy songs on the radio or watch sad movies.  It's just the way I am wired.

I'm sure I'm going to cry. I have always been extremly emotional. I plan on telling the make-up person to go easy on the eye make-up and make sure its waterproof.

I'll probably get all emotional too and I'll be biting the sides of my cheek trying not to until I bleed. I'm sure of it. But w/e I agree with Eline, I don't think it would be bad if you cried during your wedding, as long as they are tears of joy.
Heck, FI, (who thinks he's super macho), will probably cry.

Oh, I'm definitely going to cry, there's no getting around it. I'm such a sap, as are most of the women in my family. I've already talked to my MUA about it and I'm getting airbrush makeup done because it's supposed to not move at all. Makeup was my #1 concern too.

I'm glad I'm not the only one.

People have been telling me that we should not write our own vows, that we shouldn't do anything that requires us really speaking. Kind of upsets me because I'd like to do what feels right, and if I cry, then I guess I'm going to cry. Yeah, not if, but when.

I didn't know that airbrush makeup stayed on better. Thanks for the tip!

Omg I was just thinking about this the the other day!!!! I was listening to the song I'm walking down to in the car.......and I burst into tears LOL! I'm really worried about destroying my makeup!!! I can easily think of multiple things right now that i will cry to.........hmmmm...getting ready, BM's and parents seeing me all done up and in dress, my dad walking me down the aisle, vows, vows to my new stepson (bawling), toasts, first dance, and dance with my dad........I might be ok after all those lo!

I cry when other people get married so I know I'm going to cry when I do.  I'm already planning on waterproof everything!  We aren't the first brides to bawl at their own wedding and we won't be the last so I'm good with it

We're writing our own vows so the tears are a definite. I figure if smudged makeup is the worst thing that happens that day, then we will have done all right.
