Writing emotional scenes?

So, I've been writing but I hit a bit of a snag. It's my FMC's wedding night, she's very nervous about loosing her virginity. Even though she's already accepted that it's her duty to her husband, she's still quite scared. She's mostly scared looking clueless, and her husband harming or criticizing her.

Does anyone have ideas, to show this to the reader?

    It can be really hard to write an emotional scene if you haven't experienced what you are trying to convey. Just try to hypothetically put yourself in her shoes and write what you would think or say if you were her.
