1. Remind yourself and everyone else to stay calm. It is just one day, a nice one, but what comes after is the most important bit. Things will go wrong, they always do, and no one will care.
2. Go to bed early the night before.
3. Eat breakfast. (You're a guy, I probably don't have to tell you this. )
4. Do NOT have your stag do two days before the wedding. Have it sooner. In fact, if you've not had one yet don't bother.
5. Photos. Make sure you've got a list of all of the family photos you want: Bridge & Groom with her family, with his family, with both families, with each set of parents, with both sets of parents, with siblings, with grandparents. Get groom + groomsmen, and bride + bridesmaids, and all together. Write a list of every photo you want and make sure your photographer has it. We missed a few of the ones we had thought about prior to the wedding and rather regret our forgetfulness.
6. Don't drink too much at the reception. In fact, maybe make it just one drink.
7. Check you have the rings, and then check again. Make sure people know what they are doing re the rings.
8. Enjoy it.

I'm surprised you couldn't discreetly put your hand in your pocket and hold the power button. *NM*
