When you got married, were you nervous or excited at the wedding?

I was just thinking back at how nervous I was at my wedding! I wonder how many of us were sooo nervous and now looking back I can't figure out why on earth I was so nervous instead of being very excited!!! How about you?

As I was standing at the alter I couldn't help but notice my Right leg was shaking badly and I was in peril of going down but all that changed when i saw my Bride at the door waiting to come down the isle. Then nothing else mattered, next thing i remember I was waking up the next morning with a smile on my face :)

That's a great story! I hope that my husband was as excited as you were the next morning! Congratulations on a happy marriage and may it continue...

When I got married, I was so nervous but at the same time excited. Mixed emotions actually. But I'm more happy and excited than nervous because the day I was waiting for so long has come. Maybe it's women's nature to be nervous when getting married because getting married is a big decision, which you will carry for the rest of your life.

I was more nervous. Because its a huge lifetime commitment, and youre vowing before people that you will stay with this person absolutely FOREVER. That's a lot to be nervous about.

Before my wedding day, I was nervous about being nervous - that always causes my chest to break out in hives and I wore a low-cut wedding gown so I was really freaked out that I'd have a bright red itchy chest on my wedding day! Thank goodness, on the day of, I wasn't nervous one bit. I was very excited to start our new life together and couldn't wait to get to the end of the ceremony so I could kiss my husband.

i was so excited that i couldnt even eat. i dont think i was nervous, i just couldnt wait to get it all over with so that we could hurry up and celebrate! i was so sure that he was the one i was meant to be with, there were no doubts in my mind. it was my dad who almost started walking down the aisle too soon, i had to grip his hand tighter to hold him back. the only thing that i was nervous about was standing in front of all of the guests. even though they were all friends and family, i still felt nervous that all eyes were on us. i was shaking like a leaf, and my husband was sweating and stuttering. it seemed to go by so fast. once it was over, we jumped into the limo with all of our bridesmaids and groomsmen and had a blast. then we went to the reception hall and celebrated all night long. it was so much fun and we all wish we could relive that day.

even though we already live together for almost 2 years the time we got married i was really really excited, i was praying that he will not back out, funny but that was what im thingking that time. but when he held my hand and vowed that he will love me for the rest of his life erased all worries and negative thoughts in my head...and even if we kissed times and times before... the kiss after the marriage ceremony is the most thrilling kiss i ever had. it was the most legal kiss we did...im so happy i married the one i really really love.
