September 2012 Weddings

More nervous than excited?

So, yesterday really hit me... Four months and we'll be getting married! It's what we've wanted; it's what I've been planning for the past several months. But somehow, when I visualize the actual ceremony, I get butterflies in my stomach and want to vomit. I hate being the center of attention, and what if my fiance gets too hot in his tux, and everybody is going to be looking at me, and some will complain about the length of the ceremony, and, and, and, and. It all just makes me so unbelievably nervous.

Is anybody else out there going through these emotions too or am I weird for being more nervous than excited? If so, how are you dealing?

Re: More nervous than excited?

  • YES !!! Same thing I know this is what I wanted but I also feel like a nervous wreck. Wanting everything to go ok and still enjoy the day. I havent found out anything to help "deal "with the emotions. I guess taking it day by day and in the end remember why i wanted it so bad and also realize that all that really matters is us !

  • I think where the concern comes in is if you are more nervous than excited about the marriage.  To be nervous about the wedding going well but excited about the marriage is okay and normal!  Of course we want them to go well or we wouldn't put so much work into it!  I think if you focus on the excitement for the marriage and the wedding as just a stepping stone, you'll realize that no matter if the wedding has blips or people don't like something (not everyone will love every detail so it is good to accept that now and remember it is YOUR wedding), as long as you get to marry your man, all is right in the world!

    I am feeling on edge now that I am under 4 months to go. However, I keep telling myself you will never EVERYONE happy so don't drive yourself crazy. As long as the day goes the way you want and you are both happy that’s all that really matters in the end. Deep breaths it will be ok!

    I agree with volleygirl 100%  I think I'm going to get really nervous once invites go out.

  • Well put volleygurl! I'm not nervous about the marriage, or even reception. I'm just already freaking out about the ceremony itself.

    Deep breaths is right!
  • I started thinking about the actual ceremony the other day and got really nervous.  I have to walk down about five stairs in front of everyone, so I'm really not wanting to trip.  And also I'm really worried I'm not going to be able to make it through the ceremony without bawling like a little baby.  Especially when I'm walking with my dad.  Geez, I'm tearing up already!! UGH!!
