Hi ladies, I have very very low self esteem and lately I have been really worrying about my wedding day! I feel like I am going to look fat and frumpy in my dress and my h2b wont like it, like my hair and make-up will look awful and just like I will look ugly in general! It is the day that every woman is supposed to feel beautiful but I just don't, and I'm dreading people looking at me and thinking 'she looks awful'. Does anyone else feel like this or is it just me? xxxx
Got together 14.02.2008
Got engaged 31.12.2010
Will become a Mrs on 30.08.2014 xxxxxx

I think most women have insecurities about self image, especially on our big day. I have similar ones to you myself but I try not to let this take over and think of how much my fiance loves me, he has seen me at my worst on numerous occasions haha but he hasn't run off yet. Im sure you will look your best, I know its easy to say but do try stay positive and most of all enjoy the experience after all it is your wedding day, one of the most exciting days ever. Keep your chin up and if you ever need to talk about anythink add me as a friend and we can worry together

Every woman has times like these and we all have insecurities! Your wedding day is the one day in your life where everyone is watching you and you want to look your best. It's normal to worry about this and feel like you won't be good enough but as Amanda said, your fiance loves you just the way you are. I'm sure you will look absolutely beautiful and on your wedding day when you feel like a queen, you'll wonder why you were worrying so much :) xxx

I agree with the other ladies on this, just remember the most important thing on your wedding day is You and your H2B. When you are dressed up and ready to go you will forget all your worries and look forward to the most important thing of the day, the love that you share for each other. You will be fine and im sure you will look beautiful x

I had some wobbles like that in the run up to our wedding, I think it's natural.
I am confident though that you will look stunning and perfect on the day and because you'll be so happy you'll also have that bridal glow that no amount of makeup can produce xxx
Married the love of my life on Saturday 11th May 2013 xxx

Thanks ladies! It's the only thing to do with the wedding that I am worried about! Lol xxx

I can relate to that, I don't normally care what I look like. Now I am obsessed about acne, toning and split ends in my hair.
30th August 2014 was the best birthday ever.
It was the day that I became Mrs. Dixon.
CommentAuthorLauraJo87
Very relatable!
There is so much pressure on brides to look absolutely perfect. I had a bit of a bridezilla moment on the morning of the wedding, I was absolutely paranoid that my dress wouldn't fit (despite trying it on two days earlier and it fitting fine) so insisted on putting it on at 6am in the morning....
I promise, once you set off down the aisle you won't give a damn what you look like as the emotion just takes over...and neither will your husband.
Don't know why I was worried, really....my now husband has seen me the worse for wear after drunken nights out (in my younger days, I hasten to add!) with sick all down my top, makeup everywhere and jeans off, revealing a luxuriant 'winter coat' of unshared leg hair...and he still loves me...and told me I looked beautiful on the wedding day.

Im worried about the top of my arms being flabby. The rest of me doesnt seem to be worrying me, but the arms!! Its natural, dont get too worried by it, you will look stunning :) xxx
CommentAuthorLinzi-jo
Nice to know I'm not on my own! I used to be a dancer so it was all about what you looked like but then I got a bad knee injury and had to stop and have since put on a stone and half and am no longer toned anywhere so that really bothers me but there isn't a lot that I can do about it at the moment. I think my problem is that I feel like I am at my worse now which isn't a good way to be when there is only 4 and a half months until the wedding! Xxx

CommentAuthorCharlotteE98
I can also relate to this. I wouldn't even know where to start with all my insecurities! The problem I have is that I live in jeans and hoodies and 'don't do' dresses, so being the centre of attention in a pretty dress on my wedding day is going to be interesting :o)
Try not to worry too much. You're going to look amazing on your wedding day and you will make your H2B proud!
CommentAuthorJoJ67
Normal here too. I have a large burn scar on my back now from accidently burnin in the sun on monday. It was so burned it went all crocodile like. Ive been puttin my steroid cream on it and it has helped a lot but it looks pretty bad. My make up artist now has to apply body make up to try to cover it for the photos! :,(
A string of bad luck before my wedding!
Im sure that no matter what happens to any of us...our OH's love us and its them we are marrying and they must love us or they wudnt be bothering. Just have to remember that!
Im sure u will look and feel confidently beautiful when ur atanding in front of ur OH on your wedding day xx
CommentAuthorRebeccaH100
Oh believe me...I'm so there with you. My sister happens to be naturally quite thin whereas I'm much more pear shaped. I keep thinking about how stunning she looked at her wedding and how stunning she will look as a bridesmaid and worrying that people will think..'tut tut...must be hard to be her sister'. or 'well..she tried'
BUT
we talk all about how weddings are a day to celebrate love...and I'm going to do my damn best to remember to celebrate my love for myself leading up to the wedding day. Yes, our H2B love us for who we are but let's also remember that we love ourselves..that we are smart, beautiful, and kind. That there is a reason why 20, 60, 100 people want to come see you get married. You are worth celebrating.
WIN A WEDDING WINNER 2014....Rebecca and Ryan
