my wedding disaster-literally!

Original post by tjs

Hi Ladies! Im back ! FINALLY! I finally have power!
did anybody hear of the big storm upstate? well guess what it happened on fri Oct 13th.......the day before my wedding! ONLY ME!!!!!!!!!!! It took FH's family 16 hours to drive to Buffalo because the thruway was closed! The news said there had not been so much snow fall in Oct since 1917!!!!!!! ........anyway trees were down which ripped power lines down...it was considered a state of emergency! my church and reception hall had no power, my househad no power......for 10 days !!!!! so obviously with the state of emergency everything was closed and cancelled. So after a short breakdown and tears , my brother in law had an idea to go to Niagara falls (which I might add had no snow!) it is like 20 minutes from where I live ....and get married in a wedding chapel, you know like Las vegas style... they have those up in Niagara falls, so FH and I talked and decided we can sit and sulk or suck it up and go get our butts married so that is what we did! .........everybody said well at least you will always remember your wedding! yeah ill say!!!!!!!!! so here are a few pictures ....please keep in mind thatt i had no professional hair or makeup, due to the storm , ........I have to say I was a bit scared thinking this a sign I should not be getting married, but Fh said nope its a sign that if we can get through a natural disaster /state of emergency, we can get through anything together! SO ladies remember what ever comes your way, just go with the flow , and look at what is really important not the cake, flowers, etc...but your love for eachother...and getting married! best of luck to all u soon to be mrs. ....

You were a beautiful bride no matter what happened. The main thing is that you are married to the man that you love. Congrats.
