5 Scary Things That Could Happen On Your Wedding Day
Your wedding day is probably the happiest day of your life, but god forbid, it could also turn out to be a disaster if things don’t go according to plan.
There is so much going on prior to the big wedding day and you can’t always take things for granted because let’s face it, crap happens! More often than not, an unexpected turn of events or last minute changes can be stressful as hell. It’s times like these that you don’t think about the things that could happen on your wedding day!
Let’s start planning for those unforeseen situations ahead of schedule, in case…
You Fall Sick on Your Wedding Day
You spend hours and days planning every single event, colour palettes, choice of flowers until suddenly just about everything and all your efforts are rendered useless when you fall sick on your wedding day.
All those endless meetings with your suppliers, late hours and so on hasn’t really paid off.
It’s your big day and you need to wake up fresh, rejuvenated and recharged. No matter how hard you try though, you wake up lifeless and your energy is at an all-time low.
To prevent any illnesses leading up to your big day, it’s important to track your time along with the amount of work you are doing (day job and wedding planning). Save yourself from running beyond your capacity. Take time to exercise, do yoga or meditation, have a salt water bath every now and again to get rid of all the unwanted energies and this shall keep you in good spirits and health right up until your wedding day.
You Run Out Of Time
Are you way too excited for your wedding day and procrastinating on the important tasks?
Perhaps you’re spending too much time catching up with friends, relatives or hubby to be that you forget to finish off wedding planning tasks or even worse, you forget to sleep!
More likely than not, you are super organized. You have your cute little planner or project management tools or good old Excel spreadsheets to refer to, but what happens if you just can’t get everything completed in time?
All it could take is just a good night’s rest. Believe it or not, you could simply just be overreacting. Don’t get carried away stressing the small stuff. Give the utmost priority to your beauty sleep girl!
You Get Unwanted Weather Conditions
Blame it on the weatherman, uggh! We can’t predict the weather and the gods above us are not always going to give us the perfect sunny day. Some couples are often graced with unwanted thunderstorms or heavy showers on their wedding day. The worst that could happen on your wedding day, is flooding. Yikes!
We don’t mean to set off alarms, but weather back up plans should be on your priority list when planning your wedding.
If you’re having an outdoor wedding, ask your venue to have a backup indoor option in case of inclement weather conditions.
Ask your makeup artist to switch to waterproof makeup and have those gumboots ready for wet weather. We found these beauties here on Amazon which would hardly be noticed under that wedding lehenga or saree!
Your Guests Don’t Show Up On Time
Or worse yet, they don’t show up at all!
The thoughts of not having people turn up to your wedding day have resulted in many sleepless nights for brides to be. Those unanswered RSVP’s or the paranoia around your guests spoiling the party by turning up late could ruin everything for you.
You may be the most punctual person on this planet, but your guests aren’t. Be prepared to receive your guest’s way after the expected arrival time. But, don’t let this bother you. Punctuality may not be the only reason. There are other possible unavoidable situations for which your guests don’t show up.
Walk into your wedding day with a positive mindset. It’s your big day and most of your guests are excited to be a part of it. Forget the ones who don’t show up.

Your Relatives Are Drunk
Alcohol is the root of all evil and can get the better of some people, in particular your relatives.
No matter what, under the influence of alcohol, somebody or the other will embarrass you and how are you supposed to deal?
Under these circumstances, you must learn to ignore it as it’s not the right day or place to get involved in any such arguments. Ignorance is the key and if things get out of hand, then have security or police step in.
If you’re seriously concerned though, perhaps it may be worth considering wedding insurance.
Above all, when you least expect it, these are just a few things that could happen on your wedding day. The key is to sail through it all and remain calm and positive. Do prepare yourself beforehand as a prepared mindset can handle the most unwanted situations with a relaxed approach!
