What is your best memory from your wedding day? I am getting married next month. June 20th to be exact. I'm so stressed out about it now and honestly just can't wait until it's here! But I often wonder what I will remember best about our special day after it's all over with. So I'm curious - what was yours?

You will do just fine. At that moment it is just you and him there.

I twitch when people watch me, I'm sure my lips will twitch when my fiance and I kiss for the first time. That is one thing I'm not sure of, I think our families might just go "ooo" and wolf whistle etc.

My husband spent all day in his tux and dress shoes but before we left the reception he sneked off and put on his sandals (the kind with the velcro straps that you can buy at Wal Mart that are great for swimming) He still had his tux on but he looked so cute and relaxed in those sandals. Those are also my favorite pics from the wedding.

I planned my own wedding, so it ended up getting pretty hectic. But there were a couple of really good moments. Obviously, taking my vows with my husband was the highlight. We wrote our own vows and used a Celtic hand-fasting ceremony. Another really great moment was when I got my bouquet. We had bought loose flowers, and my closest cousin put the bouquet together for me. It was absolutely beautiful, and it was really special that someone close to me made it for me.

I had Gerbera daisies, tiger lilies, white roses, and Peruvian lilies. It was very bright and pretty.

Well I hope you don't mind me responding to you. My fiance and I aren't yet married either, but our wedding day is fast approaching. I am nervous myself. Have you had any dreams? I know I have. The other day I had a dream, and part of it was about mine and my fiance's wedding. I dreamt that we were at the hotels I used to work at and we were watching a play of the wedding, atleast I think it was. I remember that the chef came out and he had me decide on the vegetables for our food, and then later he came back and handed me my check (a personal check I was to sign and give back to him) I looked at the check and it was written in pencil to myself, and the guessed amount was either $6000 or $10,000. Very odd huh? Well I was wondering when I was going to dream of the wedding, I don't think I've dreamt about it before. I think that my fiance and I have already done a little bit of worrying. I'm not sure what we'll worry about on the wedding day, or what I personally will worry about on the wedding day, but I know no matter what it will be a great day. After all, some people have things happen on their wedding, food not done, etc, and they still have a great wedding.

Aww! I guess I'm more relaxed about it, but still my fiance and I both worry. In any case, I hope you can stop having those nightmares. September 26th is our wedding date, a date we'll share with his grandma and a dear friend of mine in California! It's two days before our dating anniversary.

oh wow, just one, the first thing that comes to my mind is at the reception. we are all sitting down being served food and I look out and see my entire family and his talking and chatting with each other. About that time my husband takes the mike and says that he has to say a few words about his wonderful wife. He goes into how much I have changed his life and how important I am to him, the mike then gets passed around to my step dad, he reads a poem I wrote to him and it goes from person to person as they tell why they love us so much...

I have so many memories of my wedding day. It has been almost 2 years. I remember all kinds of things - some bad ones like the cat shredding the flowers my friend brought for me to carry and the terrible humidity! But mostly there are good ones. I think my favorite memory from our wedding day is finally being able to kiss him! I had left for work that morning and gave him a goodbye kiss. Yes, I worked a half day the day I got married. Crazy, I know. He had gone to his parents house to get ready and would meet me for the ceremony. I got ready at our house and my family met me there. They followed me over to the park. When I arrived and I saw my husband I fell in love again all over. I walked to the gazebo and walked up to him. Just as we were about to kiss our greetings, my friend shouted over to us 'You cant kiss until after you are married!' so I bent my head down and my husband kissed my forehead. We went through the ceremony and then I was finally able to kiss him. It was our first kiss as a married couple and it was delicious! Our wedding was not elaborate or exactly traditional, but it was glorious. Dont stress out about your wedding, it isnt worth it. The only detail that really matters is that you are getting married. Something WILL go 'wrong' that day, it always does. But at the end of the day, you will still be someones wife and you will have a husband. Nothing else matters!

My cat clawed my dress bag while it was hanging up ready to go, and she put tiny little holes in the train. I wore the dress anyway, and nobody noticed. I was a little mortified at the time, but now I think it's pretty funny. I'm sure that the cat shredding your flowers will be a funny memory later on, too.

Everything is memorable in our wedding. From the planning and preparation of our wedding. Like our invitation we really work hard on it. We buy all the materials for our invitation and we are the one who work with it. The souvenirs of our wedding we are the one who make it also. The flowers were done by my mom. The dress of my entourage was very well chosen so that my cousins and friends really look beautiful. Everything was cherish because of the hard work that my family and friends pour on our wedding day until it was over with a big relief......

My wedding day was over 13 years ago and yet it is still quite vivid in my mind... all day of it... the most memorable moment I guess is when hubby cried during the vows and couldnt finish, so the father just said everything and he said "I do"... LOL ....there wasnt a dry eye in the room after ward.... but everything else was a blast from getting ready to getting to the chapel... to the reception, to hubby changing into his sweats after midnight because the tux's were due back the next morning and we were leaving for Florida...so the best man took the tux's in for us... and then of course the cake fight at about 2 am.... that poor crew that had to clean up after us... we were the last couples to leave when the party was over....LMAO!! Have an awesome time, and just remember it will go by in a blur but it will the best day ever!!!!

What really overwhelms me during my wedding last year is seeing people I haven't seen for a long time - relatives and old friends. I am touch with there presence on my wedding day. I am so happy that they wanted to be part of my wedding. The pictures I have now keep on reminding me that I was really special in their lives that the chose to attend my wedding.

yes marriage is also a part of my memories but most of all my childhood days long years ago. i choose that in the sense i have a a great experienced in working hard in order to grow better person in my life. if i did not sacrifice these moments i will not be like this today. happy to have that stepping stone to success rather than easy life then regrets. thats my good memories working hard to succeed.
