Until my wedding Starting to get nervous. Fiancee and I moved furniture into new Apartment this past Sunday with the help of my friends. She is starting to freak out because she has never lived away from home. This Saturday is Bachelor party. Paintball during the day and bars in the evening. Any advice for the big day? Later

Eat something before your wedding. We had a morning wedding and one of my groomsmen brought bagels...empty stomach and nerves don't mix well. Plus you wouldn't want to pass out while you are up there! Enjoy yourself because the day is just going to fly by.
Congratulations!

advice: hide your SVT especially if you invited any of these CEGers to the wedding

WATER, WATER, WATER!! stock up in the morning..
You would be surprised. Also, don't lock your knees, while standing there. You actually don't realize how often you do that, and that causes the bloodflow to stop, and you conk out... (go through bootcamp, you see it more often, than not, actually.
GOOD LUCK, and congrats.. I know it will be the best day of your life!

Another one is to designate someone to be a sort-of bouncer, if there is alcohol at the reception. People can get crazy and stupid and the last thing you want to do is be worrying about it. Choose a few of the biggest guys you invited.
Relize that things are going to go wrong, but you will probably be the only people to notice, so just shrug it off and roll with it. (My groomsmen were supposed to have Euro-style ties but they ended up being bow-ties.)
On the bike thread- I'll trade ya. I would love to have a SuperHawk to go next to mine, I just wish it would come in blue to match the Hawk.

Just relax and have a good time. Be yourself...she married you for who you are so don't feel you have to put on a show.

Guys have it fairly easy the day of. Just show up dressed at the church. I had brunch with my best man and we dropped off the get-away vehicle at the hall. Very helpfull, although we should have eaten a little later. By the time you get to eat again, you will be starving. And you'll have a couple drinks on that empty stomach which can hit hard. Everyone you come in contact with should take care of everything you need the day of. If something doesn't turn out exactly as planned, don't worry. Someone else will take care of the issue. You just need to enjoy yourself as you will be on cloud 9 the whole day.
