I've been having bad (well, horrible) dreams about the wedding for awhile now, but last night got ridiculous. The horrible parts of these dreams don't involve the cake tipping or my dress not fitting, or it raining. Rather, in all of these dreams I am absolutely livid at Josh for various reasons leading up to and on our wedding day. They are so real that when I wake up I have to think about if they really happened or not. Before last night I have thrown the covers off the bed and moved so far over to the other side that I was practically falling off, but that's about it. Then, last night I was so angry in my dream that I clawed Josh's arm (think, dug my nails into his skin) and half clawed half poked him in the face. Thankfully no marks were left by these sleep induced outbursts. I vaguely remember digging my fingernails into him, but don't remember anything else. I think that maybe I am channeling my nervousness about the wedding into anger towards him in my sleep or something! I read online that lots of brides have horrible dreams leading up to the wedding...but none of them mentioned actually acting out these dreams in the form of violence towards their fiance. I think one of us is going to have to sleep on the couch for the next week so that Josh doesn't look abused! I think tonight I'm going to have a glass or two of wine before bed so hopefully I'll just pass out and leave him alone! Did any of you have really bad dreams leading up to your big day? Not that I wish this on anyone, but I hope at least one of you did so I can feel normal!

I had nightmares about breaking my leg or my arm right before the wedding. I also dreamed once that I printed the date wrong on the invites and no one showed up on the actual day... I woke up in a panic and actually checked the invites for accuracy at about 4 in the morning. So, according to me, you're completely normal to be having these dreams... Poor Josh!

You're totally normal:)
I think that if J and I didn't have separate rooms he would have been black and blue for our wedding - I was so stressed and I would kick and flail all night. Some of my bad dreams came true - I didn't finish the programs (no one cared), the city took down all street signs downtown (no one was horribly lost), they closed the exit from I-75 that everyone had directions from (people are smart - they ask for directions at gas stations).
Your wedding will be fabulous!
