  1. Don't sweat the small stuff...............that happens to go for the marrige too!


  2. Pay attention to each other!  (Bride and Groom)  Don't let the chaos of the reception, cause you to not spend alot of time together, dancing, having fun, etc.  Sounds silly, but I've been to so many wedding where the bride and groom separate in order to speak to everyone.  The party is for you!  Enjoy it TOGETHER!

  3. Here's a couple, all for free! ;)

    1) You and your new spouse should stay by each other's sides the whole day. Yes, you may have different people to speak to, but you can socialise and do the rounds together. Nothing is worse than getting to the end of your big day and realising that you and your new spouse have only spent half and hour together!

    2) At some stage during the day, the pair of you should just take a step back to savour the moment. Try to take a mental snapshot of everything you see and everything you feel, and appreciate, because it's over before you know it!

  4. to the court house for a divorce


  5. As I've planned my own wedding, several people have told me they don't remember alot about their own wedding day, and that it is really a blur to them now. They stressed to me how important it was to just soak everything in, and don't get all caught up in the chaos. Make it a point to be relaxed on the day of so you will be able to focus on the moment at hand. Best wishes :)

  6. DONT GET TOO DRUNK AND REMEMBER EVERY BIT OF YOUR DAY  

  7. Take time to look around at the guests enjoying themselves,and enjoy yourself.

  8. enjoy the s*x while it lasts, because that's the last you're gonna get or give.  

  9. On the day of the actual wedding, I'm going to tell myself that the day is about me and my fiance. I'm definitely the kind of person who, when it comes to these things, really looks out for other people's comfort, but on the actual wedding day, it's all about you, your fiance and your life together, so you really need to enjoy it and not worry that everyone else is having a good time (that's what the months of preparations beforehand are all about!).

    Spend time with each other, talk, savor the day, take it all in, stop to breathe and look around, etc. These are all pieces of advice I've gotten from married couples, and things I refuse to ignore when our big day finally arrives.

  10. If kids are coming make sure there are colouring books and crayons for them at the reception..and bubbles etc.

  11. dont do it

  12. Take the time to smell the flowers, soak up the feeling, smile, look around at your guests. Look at how beautiful your cake is so you don't do like I did and realize in your wedding photographs how pretty it was, because the moment was just a blur. Take a moment several times throughout your big day to just soak in the moment. If you think you are going to forget to do this, ask one of your bridesmaids to remind you. ;o)

  13. we plan on greeting my guest -- so each will have their time with us!

    remember and share why you want to marry each other! alone when you wake up!  make sure it's for love not any other reason!


  14. ENJOY!!! it cause it is something extremely special and something that you will want to remember the rest of your life. CONGRATS!!!!!!!

  15. Don't get too drunk, spill red wine over your expensive dress and fall asleep 5 minutes after being carried over the threshold!  

  16. there is a great possibility that something will not go as planned....it's ok, just laugh it off and have a FUN day! soak it all up because it goes by really fast.

  17. Pay attention! The day will go be so very fast, and remember to enjoy it!  

  18. have a survival kit close by

    sewing kit

    band aids

    breath mints

    touch up makeup

    extra nylons (if wearing them)

    advil

    pepto or tums

    mirror

    hair brush

    hair spray

    clear nail polish


  19. Mind you, I haven't had my wedding day yet (Sep. 5, 2009!!) but after seeing all the girls go nuts on Bridezillas, as well as personal acquaintances of mine alienating all their friends right before the wedding, I guess my tip is this:

    Enjoy your day, be excited for your day, love your day, but DON'T blow it out of proportion- you are not the only person ever to get married in the history of the world.  Getting married doesn't make you a princess or a celebrity, nor does it give you license to be rude, demanding, or otherwise unpleasant to your fiance, family, friends, vendors, etc.  Just take it for what it is- a beautiful day to celebrate your new marriage with your closest friends and family- and don't stress about everything being PERFECT because nothing in the history of the world has ever been "perfect," and your wedding day is no exception.

    That said, I'm sure you're a very nice person who wasn't going to act like a Bridezilla anyway, but I think it's good advice which I plan to follow myself.

  20. Enjoy it and try to remember it all... I'm sure it'll fly by before you know it!

    Also make sure to take a small firstaid kit with makeup remover cloths, bandaid, stain remover, hair pins, mini hairspray, etc. Give this to one of

    your bridesmaids to hold on to... just in case!

    All the best :)

  21. Relax and breathe. If there are any "issues" remember to put them in perspective. They're not that big in the scheme of things. Remember that this is the first day of your Marriage - and the marriage is what is important.

    And of course, the crayons and coloring books and such at the reception. We also went to the dollar store and got teddy bear brides and grooms. So each kid who wanted one got a teddy bear or a set to take home. The little girls carrying around the bride teddy bears were so cute.

    We also had pirate stuff that the girls lost interest in, but the boys liked (also from the dollar store). And I have a nice picture of the best man with an eye patch and hook shortly before he gave his speech. He didn't think we were watching. And, no, he wasn't drunk. We're all really silly like this.

    Above all, have fun and enjoy yourselves!

    :)
