How am I not going to cry?!

No idea but i wouldnt worry about crying. everyone cries at a wedding. the bride is perfectly entitled it is your special day and you are bound to be emotional.

just remember waterproof mascara and a hankey ?

My CBM is going to be stacked up with tissues! I did say to H2B I need to make sure the makeup lady uses waterproof mascara otherwise I will come out looking like my Goth BM ?

I think rather than worrying about how you're going to stop yourself crying you might be better off to just accept that you are going to and prepare yourself for it ie. waterproof mascara, handkerchief, spare tissues, make-up for touch ups before pics etc.

I know I'm going to blub so much so I'm just trying to be ready for it when it happens.

I know I will cry, I cry at at anything - adverts, friends, eastenders, even scrapheap challenge yesterday!!! ?

I'm planning on taking some Rescue Remedy to calm me down!

I will definitely cry too, I cry at many things, even Big Brother the other day! I think waterproof mascara will be my saviour, however I may try out the Rescue Remedy too or Kalms tablets. Mil2B is even worse, she's going to be a nightmare.

oh, LOL @ Scrapheap Challenge though!! ? that did tickle me!

I know it was tragic! Some guy had a little weep when they won, and it started me off!!

I will look into Kalms too.

I am a massive crier and this was my biggest concern leading up to the wedding. I started taking rescue remedy a fortnight before and I really think it helped, I would really recommend it. I really look awful when I cry - my eyes go red and my nose goes even redder and I had an awful thought of totally ruining the photos because of it. My main focus throughout the morning was not to cry, even my hairdresser shed a tear when she put my tiara in, but I just laughed that off. My only wobble was when we got to the top of the aisle and I could see everyone looking at me - I had to take a deep breath and concentrate on just walking and I didn't cry! Till the reception and my Dad's speech!

My point is, do be prepared with hanky etc, but you might suprise yourself like I did and not succumb! Good luck!

Well... if you do cry, it'll likely be a wee happy cry or maybe even a single tear escaping (which I think would be rather sweet!) .... not big wailing sobs and beating of fists on the altar!

So if you cry let it happen!

You could ask your make up artist to use some reddness reducing stuff under your foundation - its usually 'green'. I use it every day cos I have pink cheeks most of the time and it works a treat even with my rubbish make up skills (and I don't even use foundation over it, just mineral powder). It also stops any redness showing if like me, when you've had one sip of wine you look like Rudolf!!!

I think trying to suppress it will only make it worse - so if you cry, enjoy it - it's only natural on such an emotional day. But yes, have tissues, waterproof mascara and any other tools you need to touch up your make up afterwards to hand.

I reeeeally thought I'd blub, but at the first sign of a wobbly lip, I would turn it into a massive beaming grin. No room for wobbliness then! ? I did cry over my flowers in the morning though - I had totally forgotten about them and when the florist rang the doorbell and I saw them, I was gone. Luckily this was before the makeup lady had done me, so I was safe!

I didn't have any wobbles for the rest of the day (I'm a complete crybaby). The next day I was a wreck though and kept randomly burting into tears because I was just so happy. ? Over dinner, over a hug, over my ring, over my tiara, over my dress.... ?

MrHalo kept a stiff upper lip, but his wobbly bottom lip betrayed him a little in the ceremony. I knew he was nervous as when I got to the top of the aisle, we held hands and his was cold and clammy.

My cousin Tom totally lost it in his speech back in June - he's such a confident guy who is Mr Cool and as he put it "had worked hard to cultivate his hard-man image" but he cried when he was saying thanks to his family in his speech. It was lovely. Nobody minds happy tears on a wedding day. ?

This has been my main worry since i got engaged. I know i will cry on the day.[:'(]

I cry for everything and i always get told off for it. ?

I seem to be the only emotional wreck in the family too so its always embarrassing.

My plan is to cry alot in the morning, just infront of family so i'm all cried out. Also if i think i'm going to cry i'll give a big smile instead.

My h2b knows i'm a cryer to so if i look like i'm about to cry at the alter i'll just get a funny look.?
