Be calm, you'll do fine. Remember to buy your bride a wedding gift.

Run now! No seriously, right now this woman is your dream, or atleast she should be, and since that is the case there is nothing you can do to make it any more smooth. No worries, no problems. In this society the day belongs to her, just let her have what ever she wants, because any suggestions from you will be all wrong.
When you get on your honeymoon, let things flow through a normal course, set the tone of your relationship, both sexual and emotional because that will be the way it should be for the rest of your life.
If you are wondering if you have made a mistake then you probably have, but in fact worry will get you no where.
Don't try to impress her family or yours, they are important but on this day only you and her matter! Oh and keep your eyes off the bridesmaids, I know they are hot, but you have the bride and you will definitely get laid!

Be there for your fiance. Everyone--your family, her mom, her bridesmaids--can potentially make her life a living hell by putting a lot of pressure on her. You need to be supportive and just listen when she gets upset, because she probably will. Also, one thing my fiance did that was helpful was to be up front about what he wanted to include in the wedding and what he didn't really care about planning one way or the other. If she can't decide on something, though, help her be decisive.
Set limits early for your bachelor/bachelorette parties so that neither of you have to worry about that down the road. Realize that a large part of your duty will really involve smoothing things over for the bride. You might also want to be the communicator between your bride and parents... it's awkward if she is planning it and then is, for example, left wondering about something like who pays for the rehearsal dinner! Some of the other things that you can probably help with are very practical--booking transportation, etc.
Best advice: plan something extra for your future wife. My fiance planned a way to afford a night at the Ritz for our wedding night!

Well... I'm glad that you are super excited, and it's a good thing that you've never done this before! I just got married three months ago, and all I can say is JUST RELAX! Everything will be fine, just let it happen and don't focus on any details. I was so stressed before the wedding about how the day would go, but I'm so glad I was just able to let it all go and be calm on my wedding day. That way I got to just enjoy it! Congrats and good luck to you! HAVE FUN!
*Oh yeah, another tip... don't drink too much at the reception! (Let's just say that cleaning up your new husband's puke is not what you want to be doing on your wedding night. BELIEVE ME!)

You're so close, I'm sure everythings been taken care of. But my advice is that if any problems/unexpected occurrences/hiccups happen in the day, field them before they get to the bride or tell the maid of honor to take care of it. If people are constantly running up to her with questions and problems (we can't find the flower girl basket, where are the grandmother's corsages, etc.), she'll stress out. It will run a lot more smoothly if she isn't bothered by these things.

Do anything to make her happy. Absolutly everything! You must do everything to please her or your life will be complete hell. It's the most stressful day in her live so make it enjoyable. If you make things go smoothly for her this day the rest of your life should also run smoothly. Best of luck.
