    I'm worried about crying, scared I will blub all the way through the ceremony. I'd really like to make a wee speech to remember my mum & my oh dad but really don't think I'd manage it without crying & depressing everyone.
    I'm also worried about my dress, 1 will it be here on time & 2 if it does get here that I will look like an ugly blob in it!!!

    We haven't booked anything yet (next summer wedding) but here's my list;
    that I won't be able to lost the 6 stone I need to to look fab
    that my Mum's hair & make-up won't be right for her on the day and she'll be uncomfortable all day
    that Dad will get worse (Parkinsons) and not be able to walk me down the aisle
    Mum & I will fall out as we're oft to do (though we're getting on fab since I've been engaged)

    As we begin to book things (arrgh insurance!) then I'm sure I'll get more worried about things going tits up and losing lots of money!

    I'm crying in my engagement photo so that doesn't worry me!

  • my main paranoias are

    - the venue not being exactly how I want it to look, so were getting married late in the day so I can make sure it does and still have plenty of time to get ready.

    - My hair being a disaster, I've always had short hair but have been growing it and will continue to grow it but I have no idea how to have it. My mums hairdresser is coming on the day to do our hair but its a new haridresser t me and I am really picky about haridressers due to some hair tragedys when i was younger.

    - my dress not fitting as it should!

    talulahbeige - can you not go and see your mum's hairdresser for a style trial?

    I will be doing, 2 or 3 times, but the mental scars from having dodgy hairdressers years back are still at the back of my mind. (Bullied lots due to dodgy hairdos!) Sounds daft but hey its true

    Nah not at all. At least you're going to try.

    My old hairdresser back at home used to have a girl that would travel a 25 mile round trip on the train to get her hair cut (tiniest trim) as she was the only hairdresser she trusted. Apparantly this girl had beautiful very long dark curly hair (as a child and now again) and her mother took her one day to have it all cut off. Scarred for life! :(
