    Hi Alison, I wish I could offer some help but im worried about this too! I know ill go two ways, ill either get over excited and be silly or get emotional and be a wreck! Not sure which is worse! Think we need some advice from the OM's on this one! x

    Me too! Sorry i can't be of any help, but at least you're not the only one worried! If you do get upset it just shows how much it means to you!

    Me too, i know im going to cry at some point so ive just resigned myself to that fact and bought lots of waterproof makeup! i well up everytime i think about it all but i reckon lots of deep breaths and the fact that everyone is watching me might help me to stay ok at the church afterwards at the speeches etc it doesnt really matter, you can cry all you want!

    I dont think it will be ruining your day - think of it the other way round, you are showing how strongly you feel. You are happy (in a cry-ey kind of way) and i'm sure you will enjoy your day

    I thought id be a total cry baby...... especially at church but I kept it all in. I had listend to my music so often it didnt make me cry no more. When walking down the aisle I got a hugeeeeeeeee lump in my throat and really had to smile lots and make eye contact with the guests to calm myself down and it worked...... what I did find was I couldnt stop and go 'hiiiiiiiiiii' to a friend or relative on the way! LOLOL wouldnt be the done thing....hahaha.

    Hi Guys,

    Let me just ease your mind. I got married last August,being a wedding planner myself every thing was in order and just so,I was even joking with my brother who was giving me away before I walk down the ail, then there was that count down to the walk down the Aile I was very excited, I got down to the Aile i was smiling happy, my husband look at me and smiled. Then the registrar said to me turn and face your husband to be and repeat after me,well I look into my husband to be eyes,then I could feel I was getting emotional,I wanted to say it like I meant it ,tears was in my eyes,before I could speak again ,what work for me was take a deep breath in and out,then continue.

    At the time I did feel a little self concuss, but you know after my husband and guests all came up to me after the ceremony and said, it was so nice to see how much some one cares about what they are doing ,and not entering into marriage lightly nice to see emotions,my husband still comments about it,and the sweet look on my now mother in law face was a picture.

    So don't worry what happens , you cant help your emotions,and if your husband to be is any thing like mine, he will love you even more for it . O god I have gone all over mussy.

    PS I always shed at other peoples weddings, so there was no hope for me . LOL

    Emotions are good. If a wedding doesn't evoke some emotion, whether it be laughter or tears, there's something wrong

    I think that I will cry, but as time gets closer I'm worrying about it less and less. I think most people will think it's sweet. Although maybe not if I get snot running down my nose or something.... note to self - make sure Iain has tissues.

    I can safely bet that the groom will cry more than the bride when it gets to our day anyway!

    Hi alison

    I know for a fact I will be snivelling my way through my vows! My big bro' got married about 3 weeks ago and he sobbed his way through when his bride was very controlled, funny coz my brother has always been very self controlled but he seemed to turn to mush. Tbh it was nice to see just how emotional he as feeling and he wasn't embarrassed at all. So don't worry about crying.....just make sure the snot doesn't escape!!!!

    xx
