We just got the post card that our wedding video is in, but it doesnt make me happy at all!
In fact I am so upset right now that I feel like I want to throw up.
Basically to make a long story short, the DJ/MC that we used ruined our wedding and the last thing I want to do is be reminded of the embarrassment that he put us through.. So what do I do?
Pick it up and watch it (knowing that its going to make me cry and bring up all the horrible feelings that I had during and after the wedding)
OR
Pick it up, dont watch it and put it in storage.
DH feels the same way.. He doesnt want to see it either.

Re: video in but I am really upset

sorry to hear about your horrible experience - wondering what happened - but i am just nosy - what about seeing if you can talk to the videogrpaher and see if they can edit out most of that and that way you can both watch it and rememebr more of the good stuff?...

also another option may be puting some of your proofs together on a slideshow with music you choose to help you remember the day in a more positive light...we got our digital proofs done that way and its fun - they can even burn them on dvd for you to bring and show to other family memebrs and friends! we don't have our video yet but got our digital proofs and had so much fun watching it with our parents and friends!

I'm so sorry that happend to you

Most videos arent of the whole entire reception so it shouldnt be as bad as you may think. Maybe if you watch it and find some scenes truly bad you can ask your videographer to edit it out.

If you wouldnt mind could you fm me with what exactly happend?
