I wish my sister had read this story before she got married.. especially the part about eating breakfast. She felt like crap later that day with her stomach already being in knots! -Sylvia, wedding cake toppers

Oooh, I'm not quite sure what you can do with this one. Is it fair to assume that this is something that he's used to doing – staying up really late and then getting up and getting through whatever needs to get done the next day?

If not, and you have SPECIFIC EXAMPLES of when it just didn't work out, then the only thing you can do is ask him not to stay out late, point to those specific examples (nicely, don't get into fight, and you know what WILL get you into a fight), and tell him that you just want the both of you to have a great day.Plus, if you think about it, just because he stays home doesn't mean he's going to sleep, it just means he's staying home. If he thinks he can handle it regardless, then it's on him, and you're just going to have to trust him.

Oh yeah, and our wedding is 10 am the next day, so we should all be getting up at 8am at the latest.

My biggest worry… is my fiance sleeping.

My fiance is a super night-owl and typically goes to bed around 6am. He's been talking about doing the same the night before our wedding, and has mentioned going to a party that night as well. (Normally, both of us would go – but I'm skipping it. I expected he would as well, but so far, that's not the case.) A male friend of ours is going to see what he can do about getting him not to go, but my fella so far can't be convinced that he should, you know, get more than 4 hours of sleep before our wedding.

Anything I can say, or should i let my friends try and talk some sense into him?

@Kelly – suv, buffer around it as much as you can. Separate willows from containers to make them easier to transport, take pics of what it’s supposed to look like to give to whoevers setting up. Hope this helps!

One thing we did is put our tips and day-of payements in seperate envelopes that were marked with persons or vendors name and had our best man take care of it so it would be one less thing we had to take care of.
