I have been thinking about the things that I am the most worried about on my big day. For me, it's really two things.
1) The weather. Yes, people say rain is good luck, but not when you're getting married outside on the beach with no shelter. If it rains, it will ruin my whole ceremony.
2) I am worried about my cake. Not sure why this is a huge deal for me, maybe because I am so excited about my cake. I am so scared I'm going to walk into my reception and see a pink and orange polka dot cake, or something that totally doesn't go with my lavender/sage green hydrangea theme. I've seen some of the cakes out there and quite frankly they scare me. My taste is very simple, that's why I am going with an all ivory cake dusted with sugar crystals. I do plan to call my cake maker when I send her the final payment and just remind her what she's supposed to be making for me.
So I am curious, ladies, what is it (if anything) that has you worried for your big day?
i am someone who likes to be on time and on schedule. Unfortunately i'm marring into a family who run on so call "brown time" aka showing up at 8:30 when the invitation say 7pm
Where we are having our reception, a lot of east indian weddings take place there. When we went to book the place, we ended up talking to the manager who was telling us some bride and groom show up to their reception at 9pm or 10 b/c the bride took too long to get ready of family things were holding them back. I've decided that as long as i have my dress on, we will be arriving for the reception at 8:10 (invitation says it starts at 7:00 but we are suppose to arrive later) I'm going paying all this money to only enjoy a few hours of my reception.
I'm also terrified of getting a migraine the day of....
#2nd..I have a light wrist sprain and it's killing me right now and there is 12 day left and we're (hubby and I) are doing the decorating with the help of 2 others.
#3 Been having venue nightmares, hoping to iron our a few snags on the venue.
My more logical worry is how our family will respond and get along since it's not going to be the big formal church wedding they all expected and we're doing everything ourselves so I'm afraid that my mum and best friend are going to be upset about not organizing a shower or coming to the dress fittings...but in the long run the stress of doing it without them is much much less than the stress of doing it with them!
I am worried about not feeling well on my big day.. I have a lot of health problems and I am worried that I will be having a bad day..
I am also worried about people not showing up (on time or at all).. Our wedding is at 10:30am so you can see why I am worried about that..
Also, RAIN! We are getting married in a gazebo outside but our guests will have no cover!
Good luck to all you ladies on your wedding day!!
I am also stressing over the seating arrangements. I feel like no matter how I arrange my guests, someone is going to be thinking "why did they stick me here?"
