"A few months before my wedding, my sister burst out laughing when I told her......that Alex and I were practicing our wedding kiss. But, I explained to my sis, we knew we&amp;#x27;d be nervous during our ceremony, and we wanted to make sure we had the kiss down beforehand. That way, we could just relax and just enjoy the moment. Although it sounds absurd, it really did help to practice. At home one evening, when Alex began to imagine kissing me in front of my dad, mom, grandmother, aunts, uncles and 6&amp;#x27;3&amp;quot; brother, he froze up. &amp;quot;Would I put my hands on your face? Your head?&amp;quot; he asked, bumbling as he tried to kiss me. I laughed and said, &amp;quot;Just kiss me like you always do!&amp;quot; And he smiled, moved in for a smooch, and laid his hands gently on my shoulders. So, funnily enough, although it sounds counter-intuitive, by practicing our kiss we were able to feel calm, forget everyone else in the room (dad included), and have a more natural kiss during our wedding ceremony. It was such a wonderful, dreamy moment! What about you guys? Will you (or did you) practice your wedding kiss? Do you envision giving your groom a big or small kiss during your wedding ceremony?
