Trip down memory lane- PW

Re: Trip down memory lane- PW
yes, but we all live in different states.
kinda. My BIL took our photos for us for free. He's not a professional photog but he has training in it. Some of the pics are really good but there are shadows in some of them (the ones we had to do inside when it got too cold out) and he gave us the CD and we're photoshop dunces so they remain unedited

walking down the isle and seeing him at the alter
some kind of chicken, sliced roast beef, rolls, salad, a pasta, garlic mashed potatoes, green bean.

Not really. Well, our friends (who weren't the photographers) got us some amazing photos and there are enough to make a decent album, if I ever get round to it (why, yes, I have been married 3.5 years, why do you ask?).
But I wish we had hired a professional, instead of letting our friend do it as a gift. They weren't that good, they were rushed and I only have one (bad) pic of me. Not that I need tons of me - but at least 1 good one would have been nice to frame for my parents or for my dh.

ditto. still brings a smile to my face
oops, you're talking about weddings. lol.
our first dance was into the mystic by van morrison. (high fives p)
Gosh, a few things.
Much as I love my dress, that would be different. Something with a waist line, probably. We'd hire a photographer. I'd do my hair the way I wanted instead of what I let myself be talked into - and it would be at least partially down. We would have rehearsed with music. But that's about it really. Just minor details.

i managed in the bathroom alright on my own.
lamb or prime rib or vegetarian. This was a huge source of contention and drama (my family doesn't eat lamb, his family MUST have lamb at a wedding. And I'm a vegetarian)
Actually proposed? About 15 months. But we'd had a wedding date chosen and had been looking at venues and such (and were for all intents and purposes engaged) for about a year before he proposed. There was not a lot of doubt we were in it for the long haul.

I can't think of anything horrific. Funny - I'd be typing forever.
We were married in a church. The same church my parents were married in. I love this church.

just kidding. that was my first dance eva in 6th grade. the song i danced to at my wedding was "my best friend" by tim mcgraw.
we insisted no stuff like the chicken dance or hokey pokey be played ever. so during dinner my parents gave us a card that said "and you thought you wouldn't hear the chicken dance at your wedding" and when you opened it, it played that freaking song!!! i had a good laugh.
My oldest brother.
my ex-bf was a dj and did it for $100.

a few things to limit the major drama. My H and I actually got into a fight at our wedding reception b/c I changed the 'anniversary dance' and didn't tell him (he was a total groomzilla). He wouldn't talk to me for about 2 hrs at the reception. Alcohol did not help this. It was terrible. I still cringe thinking about this and try to remember my wedding as everything that happened before this.
And I'd probably invite a few friends that I really thought I'd lose contact with but have been really close to since. We kept the guest list small and had to cut indiscriminantly and I sometimes regret that.
Had no plans to have one - I wanted to bake cupcakes. My mother was horrified. It was the ONE thing she had an opinion on. After sharing her horror with her mother, my grandmother's husband (who I've never met in person) offered to buy us the cake. It was such a sweet, lovely gesture, and it made her happy, so I agreed.
Three layers (two would have sufficed, but we really had no idea how many were coming when it was ordered, because we hadn't gotten the No's from dh's family yet), chocolate with cherry filling. It was the most amazing cake I've ever had in my life. So pretty and sooooo good.

the reception was in this place called the "arcade" which is a really old building. it's a hotel now but also has stores in the middle. so essentially the upper floors were open to hotel guests and the public. we had a lot of people dance their ass off to the band on those floors, which was great.
i also kicked out wedding crashers.
dj but we ran a tight-ship with the music list (to avoid 70s french ballads)
