    I've thought about that as well, everytime I think of walking down the aisle I start bubbling! One of my friends was the same but she said when she actually got there she didn't get the urge to cry at all, in the moment it felt different for her. I'm not sure it'll be the same for me as I cry at everything and think with all the emotions of the run up will just come out when it's finally here. If I cry i'm just going to try to stop my face scrunching up like it usually does! Sorry i've no actual advice but i'm glad to hear i'm not the only one who's thought about this :) x

    i can see myself having the full on waterworks and i now during vows that there will be watery eyes... but a good tip my mom gave me, as your walking down the aisle, i hate being centre of attention, all eyes on me, so this will be a killer...
    Stare straight ahead, at the registrar or the table or anything to focus on in front.

    I'm a performer so for me I just need to put my performance head on. It might help if you concentrate on how to make that walk down the aisle look amazing for everyone else. Maybe focus on how you hold your head, how you smile, how you hold the arm of the person walking you down.

    In the run up to the wedding i went to a few services at the church where we got married and every time i got really emotional especially when i was singing hymns (they made me cry every time lol) I was convinced that because of this i would be a crying snivelling mess on the big day however i didn't shed a tear.On the day i was so focused that it felt totally different, i didn't even cry when our 7 year old recited a poem that she had comitted to memory (although everyone else did!) I think beforehand you are anticipating how amazing and special its going to be and that is what makes you feel so emotional however on the day as it is happening bit by bit its easier to keep a hold on your feelings plus i think you are also a little bit in a daze on the day too.xxx

    I'm going to have the same problem I'm going to be a blubbering nervous wreck throughout the whole service lol.

    I'm thinking a shot of brandy before I go in lol.

    Aww i understand how you feel hun, I've been thinking about that as well xxx I've been married before and at the time I thought I would then, but I didn't, I just smiled. Am hoping will just be super smiley this time round but you can never tell for sure how you'll react til you're there and doing it xxx

    Cry?! I think I'm probably going to be so nervously stressed & see everything in grey (like when I'm giving presentations or speaking in public) & either pass out or throw up :-P cry would be a good option! Lol!

    I didn't cry when I walked down the aisle. Instead, I knew everyone was there for a celebration so no need to cry - and I turned to everyone as I walked, with the biggest smile on my face!! I must admit I'm not an emotional, cry at anything type of person in the first place though.

    I'm not a I want to be centre of attention person so I'm really going to be put out by everyone watching me lol, hence why I'm going to be nervous, the crying bit will be partly nerves and happiness.

    We were sorting out the music for us to sign the Register too last night and I burst into tears!!

    Am getting quite emotional now but am determined not to wail!!!
    A few tears down my cheeks, isn't a problem.
    I just don't want to be at the front wailing and sobbing like a mad person!!!

    I'm going to focus on my MoH who will be at the front and told her she has to be happy and smiley.

    :-)

    Everyone told me I would cry down the aisle, so I was determined not to! I started smiling and didn't stop. The only time I nearly did was when I was looking in my husbands eyes to say our vows. I had to look away from his eyes!

    I nearly sobbed when I got to the top of the aisle and saw h2b. Instead I said 'I think I'm going to be sick!'

    I had my eyes down as I walked in because I caught one of my guests crying! So I didn't look at anyone after that lol x

    The only thing i can think of is looking elsewhere? I normally have to work or something to distract myself from crying. Going to be a bit hard to do that on the day :P

    I'm terrified of crying on my day! I'm not a fan of showing emotions to anyone who isn't my H2B or my mam anyway (I got told off first Christmas with his parents because I didn't jump for joy at my presents :P I did like them! I'm just shy!)

    Literally papping myself at the thought of being centre of attention all day, I hope I'll get through it!
