Is there anything you 'had' to have that after its all said and done you realize you really didnt need.
We had the flat screen TV's with our photomontage and ceremony recap playing. We just had to have this
Nobody even watched! And I really mean no one. There was an error with DJ before we were announced and he couldnt play it. He played it during dinner instead - with an announcement and I remember looking around the room and no one was paying attention!
The DJ even told us when we were booking that its not important and we dont need it and we still did it!!!

It will sound like I didn't like my wedding, but I did...I would have really not had a lot of things, the cupcakes that I did LOVE AND RAVE about were delish and they were loved by everyone but 700+ bucks that we didn't need to spend and boxing them, labeling them, ribboning them...way too much time on it. The DIY menus I did, people noticed them and commented but still a waste of time for me, I would have probably not spent that much money on my dress but in the moment it was a MUST HAVE, looking back I would have done it differently. I would have stuck to our original getting married at the beach club, ceremony in the sand, I would have just done my flowers in all hydrangea kept it simple lol..when it's all said and done it was beautiful but I think I changed a lot of what I had for other people. Oh well!!!
Aww. I LOVED your dress!!

I really wish that I wouldn't have had a band, and that I would have saved $$ and gone w/a DJ.
What really? U didn't like them? Who did u have again?

My veil. I wanted a single tier veil, the one I got was 2 tier. I should have just said no and kept looking!

Re: Looking back on your big day....
The only thing I think we had that we could have done without was the chocolate fountain. The funny thing is, I didn't even care about having a chocolate fountain. It was the only thing DH INSISTED that we have. It was in a separate room and I'm pretty sure the only people that really used it were the few kids that were there. But DH enjoyed it--I guess that's what matters. lol

I am really glad I did NOT have the Viennese hour....the wedding was on a Sunday and most people left early anyway.

Re: Looking back on your big day....
The biggest thing was having the Bentley to bring me to the Ceremony and then for me and DH after the Ceremony to the RH....I don't think it was worth the money, but it was really something my mom insisted on, I would have been just as happy in the limobus.
Also, favors, I think we should have just made a donation. And I looked around forever for a unity candle holder that I wanted and finally found one 2 weeks before the wedding, but spent way too much on it
