Wow, I remembered you were to be a june bride, but don't remember if you mentioned when or if I had just forgotten when. Well Congratulations. I can't give you any newlwed advice yet, lol, I haven't got married, ours is still a couple of months away. I'm excited about it, and just can't wait.
Can I ask you a question? Did the last minute planning come down to the last two months? I'm so excited to get the flowers for me and the girls, and the shoes for the girls, and wow... Alot to do. How much was your marriage license? Ours is going to be $70.00 when we go get it mid july.
Sorry for rambling on. CONGRATS SO MUCH!
Oh and what was the most nervous part?

wow - you remembered? That's awesome! :-) hehe Makes me feel special!
I'll tell ya - I felt like the last few months I couldn't do anything! It was almost like a waiting game until the last few WEEKS. And then I was busy busy!
The part I was most nervous about was walking down the aisle. But as soon as I got that over with - the whole ceremony was amazing :-)
Good Luck!!

Oh I feel like I'm doing nothing right now either in regards to the wedding. I've expressed my feelings with my fiance and mother in law, and well my fiance knows what I mean, my mother in law says that there's nothing to do... which is true, lol.
$50.00 is a little better then the $70.00 we have to pay, not sure about extra copies but we don't plan on getting any. I guess I need to ask my fiance's mom about that, she's our underpaid (wait I mean not paid) wedding advisory.
Oh and the blood test, not doing that here for our state of NC. so glad about that too, well I don't mind, but my fiance doesn't like it. Oh and you should feel special! lol! I remembered you because I knew you were getting married so close to mine, and well all brides (probably) go through the anxiousness, etc.

Congrats! You married your best friend? that's so cute hehehe.
Well i've been nearly two years married now to a crazy man lolz.
Advice? hmm Married life sometimes has ups and down so deal with it calmly.
When the other is angry don't be angry too, and don't yell each other and settle all misunderstanding before going to bed, always remember the word ROSE, meaning Respect,Openness,Sympathy, Emphaty.

Always communicate. Don't let things fester. Marriages need to be worked on. Love each other, do things for each other, but don't ever let yourself be pushed into something you're not comfortable with. Best wishes!

i have been married for 6 months now, and yes it feels like it has flown by. i can't believe we're already halfway to our anniversary. my advice to you is just to appreciate all the good things about each other. sometimes my husband and i have our little disagreements but we always talk about it till we really fix the problem. (not just until we get tired of talking or one of us forgets about it--that really doesn't work!) ultimately we're all we have for the rest of our lives, and i want him to die feeling like he had a good life and he got to experience real love.

I have been married for almost 5 months. I got married on Feb 9th. I cant wait til my 1yr anniversary. CONGRATS! It is so great to see couples making a long lasting relationship instead of all the divorce drama we see on a daily basis.
As for advice for newlyweds... I have to say myself. that marriage is a compromise. Once you get married there is no you or I it becomes us. learning how to be a couple is a lot harder than i thought it would be.

Congratulations on getting married! Wish I could give you some advice, but we haven't even gotten married yet! 13 days left and counting until the big day! It's so nerve racking. You're lucky to be done with yours already and the nerves have finally left you. :P
The best advice I can give you, though, I think, is be ready to compromise. That's where I've seen so many relationships and weddings go wrong. You have to be flexible. You can't always expect your spouse to do what you want and sometimes you have to give in order to get. ^_^
