I'm a little nervous about the walk down the aisle too. I don't really like being the centre of attention and the thought of turning a corner and suddenly having 80 pairs of eyes on me is kinda scary!

I'm trying to convince myself it will be fine though because I'll have my dad with me and I'll just be focusing on FH

I'm also a very quiet person and I don't know if anyone will be able to hear anything I say during the ceremony, but I really don't want a microphone! At the end of the day, the only people who really need to hear me are FH and the celebrant.

I am a big sook so I was most worried about crying during the ceremony and my speech. I started crying as soon as Canon in D started playing (thank goodness my dad was there otherwise I might not have made it down the aisle) and I cry at times during my speech (but so did a lot of the audience so it was ok).

Hey Nat!

I am now nervous about getting injured doing our first dance, lol. Following tonight's toenail injury in dance class I am now a bit scared to get back on the bandwagon!!!

Re. walking down the aisle, is someone walking you down? If so maybe you could ever so subtlely steady yourself with their arm!? I intend to do that on my Dad, heh heh heh..... You would also have time to buy some of these if you haven't already - I have been wearing my wedding shoes around with them on and it doesn't feel like I'm wearing wobbly stilettos at all even though I am: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/CLEAN-HEELS- ... 073wt_1139

Just make sure you get the right sized stoppers for your heels.

You actually also need your witnesses to hear you otherwise your marriage is not legal!

I am sure you will both be fine, I was nervous about walking down the aisle too but I just focused on DH (and bawled my eyes out the whole way down!).

They'll know what I'm saying and just pretend they heard me lol!


I'm actually not worried about crying, even though I'm a pretty emotional person and I probably will. I think people kind of expect you to cry at your wedding, and it's not ugly crying, more the glistening tear on the cheek type. As long as you've got properly tearproof make up on, I think you'll be fine.

And I also intend to lean on my dad when he walks me down the aisle

The main thing that gets my heart pumping is speaking in front of everyone!! i HATE public speaking and to be saying such emotional words i think i might get the worst wobbly voice EVER!!

I think i will be much more relaxed once the ceremony is over........

I had a minor freak out about walking down the aisle and tripping over in the beginning but I'm ok with that now. Now I'm stressing over getting tongue tied during my little speech to my step children telling them I love them and how excited I am that I will be a part of their lives.

I'm trusting my brother with music - can imagine I'll end up walking down the aisle to Bliss and Eso or something

I'm most nervous about crying. I really don't want to cry. I don't care if people expect it. I will be so embarrassed and angry at myself if I cry. I'm not someone who cries easily, but there have been a few occasions in recent years where certain things (movies, songs, etc) will suddenly set me off even if they never have before.. I'm dreading that moment where if a bride starts crying you hear people quietly go "Aw!" Yuck yuck yuck! I don't want that at all! LOL.

Last night I was looking at the ceremony booklet our celebrant emailed us with the options for different parts of the ceremony. None of the sappy emotional stuff affected me, but when I got to the compulsory legal jargon, I choked up! This is the exact phrase that did it to me: "I, (celebrant), am duly authorised to solemnise your marriage according to the law of Australia." <---- Yes, I'm weird. I think because it just sounds so.. well, official.

The other thing that could make me cry is my music. I'm having a classical trio play China Roses by Enya for my processional, so if their version (which I will not get to hear beforehand) is as beautiful as I imagine it will be.. look out, tear ducts. *sigh*

I'm not nervous about tripping or anything like that, I think those funny moment is what makes a wedding memorable!! so if it happens it happens lol. I'm also abit of a performer, love having my photo taken and love having all eyes on me so I just see me basking in the attention tbh XD

I'm probably most nervous about crying, I don't wanna look silly or mess up my make up. But I think we're gonna keep things simple and lighthearted, no too deep and romantic cos thats just not us, so hopefully I'll be laughing instead of crying
