Re: What would you have done differently on your day if you knew then what you knew now?

Looking back I think I had a beautiful wedding. However, I think if I had an opportunity to get an insight into the girls I asked to be in my wedding, I would've chosen more wisely.

I would not get as stressed as I did. Other than that, my day was great! There were other imperfections, but those are what contributed to making the day so great.

I try to tell brides, ENJOY your day, take in every moment, dance, party and have a good time! Everyone follows the lead of the bride and groom. If you guys are not having a good time, the guests won't! At my wedding towards the end, I took off my shoes, danced, hugged everyone and I partied my *** off! I hate going to weddings where the bride and groom sit and look stiff all night b/c they don't want to wear off the makeup or mess up the suit - I've been to a few and the guests didn't enjoy themself! Let go and have FUN! You only get to do this once! People LOVE a good party!

I would have practiced going to the bathroom in my gown.

I also would have sent my photographer away so I could eat my own wedding dinner Don't get me wrong..... I LOVE my photographer, but I really wanted to eat all my yummy food

I would have done a timeline....like schedule the morning of getting dressed etc...I kind of just let it flow and wound up rushing to get dressed and get to the church bc it took very long to get my hair and makeup done!

I wouldnt change anytjing except I would have eaten during the day before hair and makeup. I got up at 5:30am for hair, didnt eat, and then straight to makeup so I ate NOTHING ALL DAY!!! I didnt eat until dinner at the reception cause we were taking pictures. I had one drink and was practically bombed.



How the heck did you do it????????

1. Taken a few minutes to really check out the details at the hall before everyone arrived.

2. Eaten dessert!
