Ha ha, I like your message but better than the email that my mum has just sent me entitled 'weather forecast' and going about how my fears were materialising as clearly it is going to rain all day and going to be freezing cold! She has a way of cheering me up

Unfortunately, forecast remain grim in the South, but we might avoid a full day of rain. I had another feeling gutted yesterday morning, but as it is still starting to get real, I am becoming more focus on the actual ceremony and party and I realise that we will hardly be out anyway. Just waking up to my OH telling me that in 54 hours we will be married put a big smile on my face.

Good luck tomorrow DueMarch, come and tell us how it went and how you either danced in the rain (love the idea of the picture with wellies on) or got lucky with a beautiful rainbow (as one of my friend had the minute she came out of church).

DO NOT worry about the weather! I was married in September and I had a mixture of weather windy, sunny and raining! It didn't spoil my day and I was so happy to see everyone. Also, when the weather turns the same every now and then, it reminds me of my wedding day and makes me feel happy
I know couples that spent a fortune on having summer weddings for the nice weather and then got a down pour on the day. Don't dwell on it, you cant change it, just be prepared - and be happy.

If your sister can't make it, carry a momento of her with you throughout the day - maybe a bracelet she gave you or some earings? It'll make you feel better and she'll like that she was remembered on the day.
My nan was dying at the time of my wedding and couldn't make it, so I carried a bracelet she gave me when I was little, and instead of throwing my bouquet, I sent it to her after the wedding.

If your OH's relative has had bad news, hopefully they'll be able to relax and be distracted by the enjoyment of your wedding. We all have our journeys and hiccups in life and we have to face them as they come. Yours is a time for celebration and those around will be glad of that fact even if they can't make it.

Have fun on your day

Nothing more to add, I just hope you have an amazing day

I wasn't jumping about with glee in the days before the wedding, I did worry why, but then decided not to. Every now and then I'd think "I'm getting married!" and smile, but even the evening before and on the morning I was very calm. It didn't hit me till I heard the music come on and I was about to walk down the aisle! From then the whole day was just full of joy.

Don't worry about what you should be feeling. You're getting married, there'll be you, him, and the registrar, and that's the most important bit.
It's good to see that things are looking up though, and the british weather is bound to give you enough dry time for a couple of outdoor pics! Congratulations!

I hope all has gone well today OP and I'm sure the rain didn't spoil anything

Well it happened and as everyone had said, the day was magical and...the weather didn't mattered one bit!! As it was, it was very light grey in the morning with a bit of blue sky, so fine, but as we go there, I started to feel so nervous (not about the commitment at all but the ceremony and having everyone looking at me), the weather became the least of my concerns! I do know that when we left it wasn't raining (but again, not sure if it had cleared more or less!) and the rest of the day was spent in the hotel and didn't really looked at. I believe it wasn't very nice, but no rain. Ironically, my husband (can say it now agreed that had it been nice as we'd hope, people would have been walking on the beach and it wouldn't have been the same than everyone there in the function room so we could socialise with everyone there.

Sister made it and well, family member too. All our friends and family were amazing and the venue was fantastic, so much that I feel almost guilty that I felt as I did and started this thread.

So if you read it and feel as I did, please please don't worry. Everyone says it after it has happened, the day is magic and matters such as the weather become totally irrelevant.

Thanks again to everyone who told me so before
