Marriage Jitters?

As the big day approaches I'm getting more and more scared and nervous. I'm constantly wondering am I making the right decision? is it too soon? what do I wear all of these things are about to drive me to drink all day every day up until Friday. Instead of doing that I have decided to fast for the next 3 days and every hour on the hour pray for more clarity about the situation and for God to reveal to me whether this is the man I am supposed to be with forever. That is what my heart and my mind tell me but I also know that it's not about what I think or feel is best it's about what He knows. Right now is a really tough time for me because all of my fears about marriage are coming to the surface and I'm throwing them onto L. I ripped him a new one today about what we should wear to the JOP and I was thinking you know something halfway traditional you know I can wear a sundress and he can wear his dress blues. Well he thought that that was too cliche'; I feel like I should have some say in our day. All the other details of our day down to who our witnesses will be has been dictated by him which I'm cool with because I don't know anyone there but damn can I have one little thing that I can make a decision on. As small as it seems its a big deal to me and it sucks. To be honest, it almost makes me want to just say fuck it and let's just put it off for some other time. So I let him know how I felt about it and how I was worried that our marriage would be the same way, he wouldn't want to do certain things because it was something every one else did or he would want to minimize my opinion. Of course after hearing that all he did say was "ok, I'll wear it" of course me being the stubborn creature that I am I didn't even respond to that IM because for one I was taking a nap and for 2 I was just really upset still and I knew if I did respond right at that moment that it would not be in a good way. Well 8 missed calls later and a nap we still haven't talked. I guess it's time to do that and get things sorted.
