Mine didn't. Anyone else experience the same? Did it/does it bother you?

DH and I didn't say it to each other, as we're not the sentimental type and we hardly ever say it. We cut the vows down to the most basic that was allowed as all the more flowery examples on offer made me cringe a bit. It didn't bother me, I know full well he loved me, as he wouldn't have been marrying me if he didn't!

As in during the vows? Nope, that would have been far too cringey.

I'm pretty sure he must have said it at some point, it was 22 years ago so can't really remember Confused

Almost certainly. He tells me most days.

Married 12 years, together 14.

Most definitely. He tells me (and more importantly, he shows me) how much he loves me every day.

My first husband didn't say it at all.

No he didn't, I didn't say it to him either, hadn't really thought about it until now to be honest. Like spunsugar we're not really sentimental and don't really say it that often.

Chasingsquirrels! Do you get married tomorrow?

Not during the vows but at least 10 times during the day! We say it most days to each other.

Well - fingers crossed! Looks quite likely we will be able to go ahead atm but have to see how DP is tomorrow.

Not during the vows but before we left for the Registry Office, when we were at the reception and later at the hotel when we were lying exhausted watching a norror film, too tired for sex and eating bacon sandwiches and having cups of tea.

Probably. But he told a lot of lies that day...

Hope it all goes ahead ChasingSquirrels and that you have the best day. Have read your other thread. You both deserve a lovely day.

I can't remember! We've been married nearly 26 years, so it worked out OK.

Chasing hope it works out for you both tomorrow Flowers

No. He doesn't tell me. He may have said it twice in 20 years. But he shows it in his actions every day.

Mine did after we were married and the kissing bit was over.
Dh says he loves me most days

Mine tells me every day - always has done.

Yes definitely said "I love you" however he didn't need to SAY it because he acts and shows me that he loves me daily so if he hadn't actually said the words on the big day it wouldnt have changed anything

Chasing good luck for tomorrow! Hope it all goes well!

I can't remember to be honest but I'm guessing he did

I can't remember specifically but I don't think there has been a day in 25 years that he hasn't told me, so I would think that my wedding day was no different!

My mother on the other hand, well I can't remember her ever saying it in my life.

Can't actually remember, but guessing not as he tends not to say it very often.

Thanks for the replies, I guess as things are not so great at the moment I'm analysing things too much. Reassuring to know it's actually quite common.
