Wedding Fears

Okay.  We all have them.  They keep us up at night worrying about the them.

I wanna talk a bit about them, just get'em out there on the table.

Wedding day fears.

No wedding would be complete without a list of fears about the wedding:  Forgetting your vows.  Tripping over the wedding dress.  Saying the wrong person's name during the vows (yes, I've seen it!).  Hair and make-up not working out.  Rain.  Band not making the ferry.  The food tasting horrible.  Whatever.

My wedding fear was that our families from different cultures--Argentina and the US--wouldn't be able to interact because of language barriers.  Of course, everyone had a great time, and we still talk about how amazing it was to sit and talk with family and friends that we hadn't seen in years..even decades.  Bringing together the four sides of our family (both of our parents are divorced and remarried) was so much fun, and everyone got along regardless of cultures or divorces.  

I'm curious to hear what others fear(ed) about their wedding.  I've even put a poll up on the sidebar for everyone to weigh in.

Don't be shy...weddings rank as one of the most stressful events we'll undergo in our lives, right up there with birth of a child, death of a loved one and buying a house.
