Re: Married Ladies!!! What were your 'small snafus?'
only two things:1. our florist put greenery aaaaaaaaaall over the BM bo-ks when I specifically spelled out on our contract no greenery at all.
2. my BIL was an a$s and decided to wear PINSTRIPES even though we spelled out everything that he had to purchase. he wanted to stand out...

Re: Married Ladies!!! What were your 'small snafus?'
i had a tummy virus the day before and didnt get anything done for myself like mani/pedi..but being so sick i didnt care..my mom painted my nails the morning ofthe biggest snow storm of the year the night before/day of..so 15 no-shows!..limo company couldn't send the rolls we paid for bc of the snow it wouldn't make it (but instead upgraded our bp limo, and we fought to get at least some money back..and did)
me and my bms bo-k's were already dying when delivered (i wasn't at the location we were getting ready at when they were delivered so i didn't see this until right before leaving for the ceremony) and you can tell in almost all the pics
and me and DH (who was starting to catch the stomach virus) did not eat a bite of the food the whole night
but i didnt care bc no matter what i was getting married that day lol and we do have pretty awesome pics out in the snow

It began as a beautiful day and once it got time to head over to the hall for photos it began getting gross and foggy out. So my original plan was take family photos outside of the RH, I never took into consideration where to take photos inside...so my fam photos are kinda all over the place lol bc I didnt have a back up plan.

Well DH was driven to the church by the GM. A bunch of my friends left the church (where they were waiting for the ceremony to start) and came to pick us up. We piled into cars and I arrived to my wedding in the front seat of a jeep.The limos showed up during the ceremony, but they were dirty and not prepared for a wedding at all. What a freakin mess. We didn't get to take pics at the reception with our family b/c we were so late (driver got lost and my dad had to give directions)
***Really small pic, but that's my arriving at the wedding.

Re: Married Ladies!!! What were your 'small snafus?'
A couple of things.I didn't know there was a strap in my dress that worked like a bra hook. With that being said, the combo of not wearing a bra and not having that strap made my boobs pop out all over the place. HOT! In all of my pictures, it looks like cleavage city.
The RH forgot to put the ribbon on my cake. I didn't care at that point. It's just a cake.

Re: Married Ladies!!! What were your 'small snafus?'
Please keep in mind that I had NO concept of time, so I had no idea what was going on...1. There was a delay due to the previous party (a Bat Mitzah) and it ran my CH and Reception about 30-45 minutes late. I didn't complain, and all my vendors stayed about 30 minutes later outside of their contracted times to make up for it.
2. A bride from another hall wanted to take pics at my hall right as I was scheduled to take pics. My Bridal Attendant, Maitre D and DOC set that straight, and she had to wait... It was the ONLY time I pulled out the 'I am THE BRIDE' card.
3. When we went to take the empty room shot I noticed there were no chair covers on the chairs. The staff had them covered in about 5 minutes flat.
Two things unrelated to my vendors:
4, During my pedicure the day before the chick CUT. MY. FOOT. with the pumice stone. But hey.. free pedicure.
5. Ever see 16 Candles? happened to me!
I am in awe of how incredible all my vendors were and will be writing a review shortly. Please... don't sweat the small stuff.
