Not exactly the same thing, but sorta similar: my DH told me that in the weeks before the wedding, most of the guys he talked to who heard he was getting married (mostly co-workers and other random guys at work) would respond with some sort of comment about it being a mistake, or feeling sorry for him, etc. It really started to bug him - especially the guys who said he didn't know what he was getting himself into! (This is his second marriage, plus we'd already been living together for almost 2 years.) He had a few friends and a couple of co-workers who had genuine nice stuff to say, but most of it seemed pretty negative. He even got a comment at our rehearsal! It was in a hall that was being used by a community group the night before the wedding, and one of the older guys said something like "Oh, you're getting married? I feel sorry for you." My dad overheard that though, and growled back "Well I don't!" My dad is generally very mild-mannered, and this was the first time DH had seen his angry side!  We never got that kind of comment. How mean! I can understand jokes about "balls and chains" and whatnot, but people actually feeling sorry for us? Come on.

| I'm not nervous about the actual marriage. I'm more worried about the following : Drunks
My moms family making a scene
Wedding crashers
food quality on day-of
weather I have a feeling any combination of those factors is going to make me lose my effing mind particularly the first two as they kinda go hand in hand

FH has got a lot of this at work but its playful

| what annoys me more is when people ask "are you excited?" No, not at all. Who would be excited about their wedding? WTF?

I just want to have my day and be married already!

I am not nervous about marrying my FH, we have known each for 13 years, we have dated for 10 years and have lived together for 7. I can't wait to be his wife. But I am VERY NERVOUS about walking down the aisle, my stomach is turning just thinking about it . I really hope I don't fall Holy Cow! I think we are identical! Totally not nervous about marrying my sweetheart, but I am typically extremely shy. The thought of me and FH being the centre of attention that day, is killing me. I get severe diarrhea and the whole puking scene. Great...real attractive!!! Something to look forward to. I wish I could fast forward the ceremony. When I get nervous I get emotional (I said laugh and crying at the same time). 
My FH know he will have to do all the speeches and thank yous. It is weird I am not a super shy person but I do not do well in group where I am centered out. Even the shower & stagette bothers me because everyone has to show up to something for me, i fell think i am putting people off whatever plans they might have that day.
