Cold feet - jitters about getting married - are common. In the weeks, days, and minutes leading up to your wedding, you’ll have a million thoughts running through your head. What if he’s not “the one”? What if we aren’t right for each other? What if he doesn’t really love me? What if I’m not ready to be married?
This is normal. No matter how long you’ve dated or how sure you are of your love, when faced with the wedding alter, it is common to feel nervous. Don’t run away! Here are three cures for cold feet that can help make those butterflies in your stomach disappear (or at least calm down a little!)
1. Talk to your maid of honor. She’s your maid of honor for a reason; she should be your support. Your maid of honor, whether she is married or not, understands you better than anyone else and has been at your side through all of the wedding planning. Instead of keeping your doubts bottled up inside, take some time to talk to her. She’ll make you feel better.
2. Voice your doubts to your groom before the wedding. The actual wedding day isn’t the time for this, but if you’re starting to get cold feet in the weeks leading up to the wedding, talk to your groom about your feelings. Chances are that he’s nervous too. However, by talking to one another, you can confirm that you do love one another and you are ready for this big step in your life.
3. Take a day off. Sometimes wedding jitters are only a result of being stressed out about the wedding planning. Take a break! If you’ve been working on your wedding non-stop, take a day with your groom to go skiing, head to the beach, check out an amusement part, or do something else fun together. Relive some stress and those cold feet will melt away.
