om or anyone really starting to freak out lol x

Honestly? I was the calmest person there on the day. As Trickers said, I was freaking out about every tiny little detail in the weeks leading up to it, making sure everyone knew what they were meant to be doing. On the day I was completely chilled out.

There are pictures of me at the hairdressers at 7 in the morning reading Hello magazine!

Try Kalms tablets in the lead up if you want. Or Rescue Rememdy was the other one some people tried.

I was the same. In the end, i took a deep breath before i entered the room and hardly noticed anyone else while i was walking down the aisle. I was only focused on my H. The actual morning of the wedding felt like any other day and i was not nervous/anxious in the slightest. It was only when i got into the venue and i heard my music playing that i had to take a step back and deep breath and walk. I hate being the centre of attention, but loved every minute of it.

I was also afraid of falling over, so in the end i opted to wear my lower heels all day. Just take deep breaths and focuse on your H2B. you'll be fine

Thanks guys i think i just needed a little reasurance im the first of my friends to get married so i cant ask anyone close to me how they felt lol.

thanks everyone xx

Can I just piggyback on your thread, please, angle? I want to know how you cope with not much sleep and an early start. Normally that would make me grumpy - will the adrenalin/excitement just kick in or will I be my usual early morning grumpy old trout self?

I'm the same CB - lack of sleep makes me a moody cowbag!

*exactly* WSS (apart from the photos!). when it comes to it, the only thing that matters is that you are marrying your H, and that's it. you really really won't care about ribbon colours or centrepieces or anything like that.

i also took quite a lot of rescue remedy, i maintain that that helped me a great deal. i was nervous about walking up the aisle, but more excited than anything on the actual day.

Yes me! I had a little mini panic attack the other day when I was listening to my entrance music- it felt all too overwhelming and I couldn't get my breaths to be deep enough, it was horrible.

Now I am really worried I am going to pass out! A combination of nerves, disbelief that the day is finally here, tight dress and the steps I have to walk down at the beginning of my aisle may not go in my favour! ?

I hate being the centre of attention, but on the day I was fine - I was so happy to see family and friends as I walked down the aisle and to see OH waiting for me and the nerves flew out the window. It just hit me a few weeks before the wedding that I'd be walking in in front of everyone and I did panic, but on the day I was calm, everything just came together and it felt natural to be walking towards him (cheesy I know!). I did mis-time my entrance though and went too early!

I kept having mini panick attacks and couldn't sleep the weeks before the wedding and was practically taking Rescue Remedy by IV (it helped calm me a lot!). The day before the wedding I was a complete wreck, crying at the slightest thing and snapping at everyone. On the Big Day, like others have said, I was calm as anything and all the things I'd been stressing over to make the day perfect just weren't important any more. My hair didn't look great, we had some rain - things which before the wedding seem like true disasters - just didn't matter. I thought I'd cry all day through nerves and emotion, but I think I only cried twice! When you start the walk down the aisle, the only thing that will be important to you will be getting to your h2b and all your anxieties and nerves will melt away. Some couples decide that their h2b won't turn around until you arrive at his side, but there was nothing nicer for me than seeing Mr N beaming at me as I walked towards him, clearly as happy and excited as I was. And it's so reassuring too. My advice would be try and only worry about things that are actual problems, not things which could be problems - you'll double your stress! Oh, and get some Rescue Remedy!

Phew thanks guys so this is totally normal then well as normal as normal is lol, im not an emaotianl person but this last week oh dear ha ha.

iv got some rescue remedy so ill try that but fingers crossed your all right.

Thank you so much really helpful xxxxx
