For most brides, their
wedding day is the day they have been dreaming about since
they started playing Barbies! Every detail has been planned, including walking
down the aisle, hearing: "and you may kiss the
bride," and having your first dance with "Ken."

The thought of all
eyes on you, makes you feel extra special. For some this is wonderful, for others this is terrifying.
Just the thought of actually having to say your vows in
front of all your guests, makes you weak in the knees. The

If
the thought of being the center of attention terrifies you, here
are a few suggestions:
|
|
|
-
Instead
of the "traditional" shower, have a couple's shower. This way you both will share in the
"limelight".
-
Sit
at a regular reception table instead of a head table.
-
Have
your first dance include your family and friends.
-
Be
sure to tell your family and friends that you would like to
keep a relatively low profile, so they won't plan any surprise
parties for you.
-
At
the ceremony, include special people to do a reading, sing,
speak. Include
children.
