I was a nervous wreck on my wedding day. All I could think about was repeating the vowels in front of everyone. I was smiling the whole day. People thought it was because I was so happy, when really it was a cover up. Miraculously I didn't stutter at all during my vowels. I don't know how I did it, because I consider my stutter pretty severe.
