Re: !!! need a head count people!!!!!!!! EVERYONE CAN ANSWER

  • I was more stressed on the days leading up to the wedding, not so much on the day of.  

    Things will happen, just know that.  Your wedding will still be everything you envision, even if there are some hiccups.

    You have 123 days until your wedding, so you've got plenty of time to iron out details to keep your stress level to a minimum.

    Stress level peaked from me on the Thursday before our Saturday wedding (2 days before - and I was crazy for like 1-2 hours and then I calmed back down).  Day of, I was fine.

    The day of your wedding, it is important to let go and just hope all goes well because at that point there is not much that can be done. The day goes by so fast so take it all in.
  • Agree with others - stress totally peaked Wednesday to Friday before my Saturday wedding, and during hair / make-up on the day, but as soon as I arrived at the venue before the ceremony, there was NO stress!! It somehow melted away and I was just happy. I was actually shocked! I assumed I would be stressed the whole wedding day. But nope.

  • I didn't feel stressed the day of. I was overwhelmed and nervous, which is different than stress. I think you just have to let it go. Realize things may go wrong (the JP was slow, the BM and MOH didn't match, the flowers in the votives werem't quite right), but in the end NO ONE noticed or cared. You just have to let things happen. If you are worried about things getting set up correctly, this is what I did: labeled EVERYTHING, gave my DOC a list of everything and what/where, and pictures of how it was supposed to look. She was impressed with this and made her job a hell of a lot easier. And I got a ton of compliments.

    Just remember...it's one day and it's going to go super fast. Enjoy it.

    I didn't feel an ounce of stress all day and that kind of messed with my mind a little bit towards the end of the night because I thought for sure there would some kind of hiccough or headache but there wasn't. I give all the credit for that to my wedding planner, the phenominal staff at our venue and the fact that it was just H and I (and the officiant, witnesses and photog) there. It was really magical.

  • Agreed... I was way more stressed the days leading up to it with making sure everything is ready to go, people arrived, etc. 
    I ended up having the flu the day before, couldn't eat a single thing without vomitting the whole day prior and morning of, and still had an incredible wedding (even though I didn't get to eat any of our fabulous food! booo :o) ) 
    Stuff happens. By the day OF, you just.. go with it. 
  • I'm getting married this Saturday, but I'm planning on having a couple of drinks to stay loose.
  • I am a control freak--or I was before having a child!  However, even after planning the wedding for a year, I decided once I made the choices (dresses, cake, music, flowers, etc.) that I wouldn't worry about it anymore.  I graduated from college two days before the wedding, so I had other things on my mind.  I was so tired on my wedding day, I just wanted it to be over, so we could go on the honeymoon and relax for a few days before entering the real world again.
  • I was only a little stressed early in the day bc my best friend/ bridesmaid paid to have my nails done and it put me 30 mns behind. When I slipped into my dress, I realized I couldn't fix, worry about, or take care of anything else at that point so I just soaked in every second of our wonderful day and enjoyed it so much. Dont for get to look around and enjoy everything. Make sure u try to get around and speak to as many people as possible and take pictures with them. And for God's sake, EAT!!!

    I couldn't stop crying until about 1pm. It was miserable! I didn't even have a good reason to cry, other than the fact that 11 months of planning was culminating in THIS DAY! Things got a little better after that, and I didn't cry too much during the ceremony. Everyone was really good about not letting me know about little mishaps, etc. until after the wedding was over!
