What is your worst fear?

I stole this from the August board, but I thought it was a good post.

What is your worst fear about your wedding day? I am afraid it is going to rain on our outside venue. I am also afraid that the mesquitoes will eat me alive. My last fear is that everything won't flow right and I really can't afford a DOC.

Re: What is your worst fear?

  • That i go out drinking the night before, get trashed, and sleep in the day of or am sick till 1 in the afternoon. So i'm going to be on my bestest behavior and NOT go out for a "quick drink".

  • My worst fear is that no one will come. We have a 100 minimum guarantee and I fear that only 40 people will show up and we will have to eat the loss on the remaining 60 that we already paid for. Most of my guests live in NY and I am getting married in AZ, although we are inviting around 180 (this number includes international guests as well), I still have this feeling that we aren't going to meet our minimum. 

    I also fear that things will not run on schedule. I guess I have been part of too many weddings that were a bit chaotic. 

    I fear that everyone will be bored at the reception and leave early.

  • That not that many folks will come or they may eat and leave!

  • Bad Weather!! We live in South Florida and are getting married in July (Hurricane season). Also, I know it may seem petty, but I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, don't want my "monthly visitor" to be here during the wedding. Besides it ruining our wedding night, I usually get really crabby and nauseated, not exactly a good look for the blushing bride.

  • I fear that everyone at the reception eat and then go home. I really want people to stick around, party, and have a great time! It seems like a trend at all the weddings I've been to recently that people leave the reception early.

    You can't just post this and not give specifics....what happened??

    My worse fear is also that many people will not show up or the opposite, many people bring uninvited guests and they don't have anywhere to sit.

  • That hubby will not be at the alter. 

    I know he will, but because I've experienced an ex-boyfriend pass away, I get scared.

  • omg lol at clumsy Danni. I can laugh because I'm clumsy too! My worse fear is that the reception won't be as popping as I want it to be. I love dancing and everyone else better join in with me on the dance floor. I also fear the "monthly visitor" as well. Lastly I fear no shows, it is too much money going into this day and I'll be dammed if people let my hard working dollars go down the drain. Ugh woosah I think I covered my top 3 fears I'm sure I have a few more lol!

    Are you on the birth control pill? If so, you can manipulate it a little so that you won't be on your period.

    the last 7 days in the pack are placebos, they should be a different color, blue or green, skip the sugar pills and go straight into the next pack.

  • I have so many! I'm afraid that the music for the ceremony will be messed up. I'm afraid that things will run late. I'm also scared that my wedding will be boring or people will leave early and that I won't really enjoy myself. Oh and that my dress or the girls dresses get damaged. Ugh! (Ok now I have to bind all of these things from happening in the name of Jesus!!!) lol
