Enjoy yourself! Some people might say don't forget to smile but with me I couldn't stop smiling all day! It really is the happiest day of your life.
Good luck!

The important part is the getting married bit. The rest of it is just a way of announcing to the world that this has taken place. Take the important part seriously and have fun after that. Remember too that the first year of marriage can be tough as you get used to everything. Do not panic or run at the first hurdle. Its worth sticking it out. After year 3, you will be settled and happy. Good luck. And have a wonderful day.

I think "the best day of my life" expectation can cause serious upset! You have to expect the possibility of rain, broken high heels, and spilled drinks- no day is ever perfect. If you go into the day expecting perfection, you will be disappointed. Stuff happens. Go into the day with an open mind- a little flexibility can go a long way towards helping you cope with a potentially stressful day, and you'll be happier at the end of the evening if you don't have the opportunity for a melt down.

Freak out over every little thing, forget like five important things you need...film, a lighter for the candles, the rings, one shoe, music...cry and fret, panic and get hysterical. Be sure and slap someone if you can. Eat like a pig at the reception and get cake all over your dress. Drink until you can't walk much less dance and pass out in the back of the limo. Then have a lovely honeymoon...Juss kiddin'. I have a friend who did this..so I will advise you to do what I did at my wedding. The exact opposite and I still had a lovely honeymoon. We kept is simple cuz the more crap you add the more you either have to be in charge of or have someone else be in charge of who will lord over you the whole way. Do make a check list though...SMILE! Congratulations! Love in Christ, ~J~

Relax do not worry about the things that you cannot control, make sure you have someone to step in if anything happens to sort it out for you.
You should not get pulled into sorting out the nitty gritty details on the actual day, it's your day to enjoy.
Most of all try and soak it all in, my biggest surprise was how quick it went. It was literally the best day of my life and just flashed by. So take in as much as you can.

Make sure you delegate responsibilities to other people who are willing to help you out, so you aren't worrying about things during your special day.
If you have to pay people the day of the wedding, give the checks to someone else, get people to help you set up, etc. Of course you are going to worry about stuff on your big day, but this way you can keep it to a minimum.
By the way, Congratulations! Good luck with your wedding and your marriage!

As a married woman myself, I can honestly say that you should not look at your wedding day being the best day of your life, as this hopfully will be one of many special days that you have. The reason I say this is only because so many feel as though their whole entire marriage is supposed to be like their wedding day, full of excitment, fresh, your the center of attraction,etc, you get my point? Your wedding day is gonna be wonderful, but remember marriage is no cake walk, that person your marrying is gonna be the one with whom you will tire of in a few years, he will get on your nerves, theirs gonna be bills and so many other issues, but keep in mind, this is the guy that you are picking to spend the rest of your life with, so make sure that he is the one! So make every day the best day of your life, with your new spouse!

Oh how exciting! Relax (Rescue Remedy is fantastic for this) don't drink too much and just soak up the admiration. It's so much fun being the centre of attention just for one day. And make sure friends and family take plenty of photos - they're often better than the professional ones. Congratulations to you!
