I regret my hair. It seems everything got rushed and my BMs looked great but I looked like an @ss. It was nothing like my trial and I hate it in all the pics from the side. And in the rush, my mom got neglected. They never even put mascara on her. I hate that in the rush, we got screwed.

I also regret not wearing a longline bra. I think I looked like crap in my dress in the boob area.....oh, and my hollow to hem dress had to have the straps taken up....therefore, too short. So I regret not getting other shoes.........

Sadly, my regrets are quite evident to me in every picture. suc ks......cries:

BUT....in the end, we're married and in love and that is what matters most!

That's funny that you say that about the bra, I'm actually the opposite. I regret that I didn't try on the dress at home with a regular bra to see if that would work. I felt like the thickness of the longline bra and the thickness of the bodice were a little too much. I think if I could have tied the dress a little tighter I would have looked a little better from the side and back in pictures (my own fault, though that I didn't lose the weight). Also, I wish I had combed out the bottom part of my hair out a little earlier for the pictures. I felt like my hair looked shorter in the back than I wanted it to in the pictures because of the curl, but I was afraid I would ruin it. Oh well, if that's all I have to complain about I'll take it...it was truly a great day all around!!

Bra here, too. Everyone said with a corset top I would be fine with cups sewn in, no longline. Yeah? Well, I lost 7 pounds after my final fitting and with the strings tied all the way tight, it still slipped all night and I look like a porn star in my pics!

I regret not having more pictures on the grounds at East Wind. The photographer kept us in ones spot for most of the pictures after the ceremony and I really wanted to have some in other places.

I regret not dancing with my grandfather.

I regret not losing the 60lbs I wanted to drop. I feel like in many of the pictures I have a double chin and fat arms.

Otherwise, I loved every minute of my wedding.

---

YES you reminded me, i SOOO regret not eating more of our cake...I had a few bites and it was seriously so delicious. I kept thinking about that cake for weeks and craving it. I wish i actually ate anything at our VH. I had some CH food though, and had some of our dinner.

Regret 1 - 'borrowing' one of my brother's perscription codine pills to help me sleep at 3am.. Bad idea. I woke up on the morning of my wedding dizzy and naseous and pale- and I still didn't get any sleep!

Regret 2 - not taking a pic of my bustle with me to the RH. Apparenty it was too complicated for my bridal attendant and she did it worng. I didn't notice unitl I saw my proofs. My gown looks funny in some of the pics b/c it looks like my butt comes to a point.

But seriously, these are the worst things that happened. The day felt pretty close to perfect!

you people keep reminding of things i regret hahaha.

I bustled my own dress, i did it quickly during pics. I have to say it was bustled right as far as what button goes to what, BUT after i was supposed to pull the middle part up front, just some easy adjusting but i did this in the middle of taking pics so did it quickly. I didnt pay attention to it at the RH and in ALL my pics i notice the back of my dress is NOT how it was supposed to be. I know others dont know but it bothers me. I have only 1 pic of it bustled right and thats at the hotel we stayed at, i noticed when we got to the hotel at 3am that it was wrong and fixed it then and had dh take a pic. Even from the side it wasnt supposed to look like that. I dont let it bother me too much but sometimes i think 'AHHHh it wasnt supposed to look like that'

My biggest regret is choosing the florist that I did... I provided pics and SPECIFIC instructions, I was assured that they would be exactly what I wanted.. and they were exactly NOT what I wanted.

Another regret is the RH, I loved it.. and they were awesome.. but a bunch of things went wrong.. and I didn't really want to deal with it that day.

i love my wedding , but they were def some thingsi regret. like not having someone to know how to do my bustle the exact way the lady from the store showed me cuz it was def different..n i luv my french bustle..=( also, no reapplying lipgloss often so i have no idea how the pics came out at all( i havent get my pro pics yet)..also no putting someone in charge of the flowers cuz i nthe rush my bk to throw got lost and the bk for the little bride.
but the most important thing, no having someone in charge of saving our piece of cake for our anniversary( my Dh dad broguth it to his house, however doesnt remember where he put it and by now is prob rotten anyways) . that cake had a sentimental value to me, it was a symbol of a year of future happiness..=(
i also regret not picking another church for our ceremony cuz the father that married us was a jerk..
the must take pic list was also needed. i think there are gonna b somethings missing in the pics. there was also this pic that i really liked and wanted to be taken but i forgot to show my photographer and was never taken..
big advice for u grls:

do a must take pic list--very important

nothing major that I can think of.
But one thing is my cake... it was delicious but SO pathetic looking because I totally forgot to decorate it!!! I forgot a cake topper, I forgot to get flowers on it.... so it was soooo plain looking. I look at my pictures of it and I do regret that I didn't take the time to have it decorated, or maybe I would have chosen a different-looking cake altogether. It tasted awesome though.

I regret getting lip gloss lazy toward the middle of the night...M i a had stuffed it right inbetween my boobs so that I didnt lose it and after awhile i just didnt care about reapplying it

I regret not having a must take picture list as well, there were so many spots at WM where i wanted to take pictures, but it was while we were taking pics that we found out about he accident with DH's mom and family, we probably wouldnt have gotten to take them anyway

I regret not reminding someone to put water in the vase for our floating candle unity candle. I thought it was pretty self explanatory, until we got to the ceremony and realized they had the candle sitting next to the empty vase on the table (i was livid)

I regret not getting to talk to everyone, even though I tried to get to each table.

I regret not saying anything about my centerpieces being set up wrong. Again, I was so worried about DH's family I just didnt care anymore.

The must take photog list. I also wrote one up before hand, but left it home by mistake. I have a feeling i'm going to be missing a ton of pictures.

Not a regret....but I totally forgot to put perfume on! If that's my biggest 'regret,' I can't complain.

---

OMG....me too actually....i wear perfume EVERY SINGLE DAY and forgot the day of

My only regret was at the altar when it was time to give the Blessed Mother a BOK....ther ewas one on the altar that looked JUST like my tossaway BOK> I thought one of my BM's brought it in by accident...when it came time to give them, I was lookin gall around saying, 'Those aren't the flowers....those aren't them' and looked so confused. Everyone was wondering what was going on and the priest seemed as if he was thinking, 'Her flowers or not, be nice and put them there' lol
Other than that, I had the best day!

my only regret is my wedding dress. i loved it when i ordered it, but def had doubts as the day got closer. i love my dress from the back, but from the front i'm not really happy with it. i did rush it though. that's really my only regret.

we didn't do a must-take photo list, but for us that worked out fine. we also had a small reception and BP, so i think that's why it worked out. our photographer kept asking us too if there were other pics we wanted to take, but we couldn't think of any.

I really can't say I have any regrets. Going into it there was not a single that I was going to late put a damper on my wedding.

At the end of the day, I was there, he was there, we were married and our family and friends were there to celebrate with us. To me, that's perfect. And I'm away how cheesy that sounds, but I made the decision early on not to get too caught up in the party and really focus on the marraige - and maybe tha focus was helped a little bit by some wise words from our priest :)

I regret not eating the week of my wedding. In combination with that, I regret letting my mother take my dress home to her house (we don't live close by). I lost enough weight just in the week of my wedding that my dress was loose and it was at my mom's house beginning the weekend before. If I had it all week, at least close by, i could have tried it on Thurs night and ran it in to the seamstress to be taken in more on Friday morning (the day before the wedding). It looks loose in all my pictures and it upsets me.

I also regret not reapplying my lipgloss. And my cousin mentioned it to me too right before we cut the cake and I was like, whatever it's fine. It wasn't and I wish I listened.

I regret not dancing at all with DH's little brother. I have no idea where he was all night, but I didn't dance with him at all and I wish I did. I danced the ENTIRE night and I know he was dancing too, somehow we just were never near each other I guess.

I regret trying to be a control freak when it came to pictures. My photographer was truly amazing and I had my must take list all printed out, but I grabbed it from his asst and tried to run the show myself. I should have just let them handle it, but the GMs started to piss me off cause they were biitching (also regret letting them get to me though I'm mad no one told them to knock it off) so I took over and rushed through it and as a result I have ZERO, YES ZERO pictures of me, my DH and his family. I have pictures of DH with his family, but none of us as a couple with his family. I'm still mortified to this day that this happened and I have no Mr & Mrs and his family shots for his mom's album. I also have no shots of just me and my mother. I try not to think about it.

my regret was to not be 'more honest' about what i liked and disliked...

i hated my cake but i didn't say anything. the rh got the colors of the ribbon all wrong!!..i should've demanded to see the cake before the festivities...i actually was walking towards it but my matre'd pulled me away...(UGH!)....there may have been time to switch out the ribbon, who knows...

another regret i had was i was wayyyyyyy too calm and forgiving....and now that i think about it, i shoudl've been more demanding!!!!

i wished i danced even more than i did...

i wished i had assigned friends take pics and followed up with them for the photos...

i wished people knew that my wishbowl was not for RAFFLES!!! i wanted people to write notes to encourage them to win a raffle prize, not just write their 'NAMES'.....i think in the end i think you just gotta write more directions for people, otherwise they wont understand...

i wished i had someone man our polaroid station...because half the pictures were gone at the end of the night.

i wished i had my bridal party do MORE....hehehe....i think i just didnt want them to do anything, but after the wedding, i realize i could've asked them to do more during the reception...before the wedding, they were awesome...but during the reception i couldve had them deal with the guestbook and polaroid pics...oh well!!

anyhoo besides that i was pretty happy with the wedding...
