Way to wear your hair? It is usually down and straight or pulled back. I love when I wake up and it has a nice wave but it's usually just stick straight.
food that you can't just stop at one? I don't even know the answer to that. I like to eat.
favorite moment at your wedding? I have 2. My dad was totally in charge of the music, so I had no idea what it would be like until we were literally lined up to walk down the aisle. When the wedding party started, " here comes the sun" by the Beatles was playing, and when I walked down the aisle the guitarist from the band played a Jimi Hemdrix style wedding march. It was so perfect. also, my DH was sweating profusely during the entire ceremony. He wouldn't wipe his face because he didn't want people to think he was crying. Middle of the ceremony, I had to reach over and wipe his forehead off. In hindsight, we probably should have opened the bar AFTER the ceremony.
