we're using, Tim McGraws "My Little Girl" I had 3 or 4 songs that I liked and had a hard time deciding, but I just really LOVE this song and thought it would be perfect!

Oh ya, I cry too - and I KNOW I'll cry during like the entire ceremony. Just embrace the fact that you're emotional and go prepared. I think if you try to hold it back, it makes it worse, plus - you'll be so concerned about not crying, you won't be enjoying your wedding! Waterproof mascara, a BM with touch-up makeup and lots of kleenix and you'll get through it just fine!

Good point.. I figure with everything going on.. I may not cry as much as I fear I will..
Borrowing one of my dad's hankies too.. It serves as my "borrowed" item for the big day!

At a wedding I was in last year, the bride had the first couple bridesmaids in the line next to her hold a tissue in their hand - we just sort of wrapped it around the part of our bouquet that we were holding so you couldn't see it - and when she needed one during the ceremony, it was easy to just pass it right over to her without a lot of commotion.

 

I've been getting really emotional about things lately, too, but you just have to go with it! I thought I would cry at my graduations over the years, but I held it together at those, so you never know.

I was already a crier at weddings.. My own.. is going to be waterworks I'm sure.. Unless nerves kick in and I'm focused on nerves..

I don't normally cry but before the wedding I had to fight it many times. During our ceremony their were a couple moments that I wanted to cry and I held it back.. I look back at my pictures now and I can see it in my face.. lol

Maybe if you try to think about it in a business sense - you know, like you're "closing the deal." Not sure if that will work.

 

Luckily for me, I'm hard-of-hearing. I plan to shut off my hearing aids so I don't hear anything. Plus, I don't plan on looking at my mother at all. She'll be bawling the whole time - one look at her and it's all over.

It's funny at my sister's wedding a few years ago. The minister actually started crying. And this is not like it was someone we knew from childhood.. he had just met them a few months before. Sweet I guess.. but it made me, and my sister, chuckle.

I cry at everything, so I thought I was going to cry. I was feeling the tears coming as I was walking down the isle, but once I reached Everton all I did was smile, and laugh, everything just felt so right.. You can't predict what you are going to do, that is the wonderful thing about emotions...
