what is the one thing youre glad you didnt do

Original post by Fall Bride 2008

What is the one thing that you thought you would definatley have at your wedding and then later on decided that it wasnt such a great idea to begin with? We wanted to have the living tables and then I was like what was I thinking......lol I still like the idea but maybe for a b-day not our wedding.

ia m so glad that i didnt let myself get pressured into having a big bridal party! my mom has cried about it - but i really didnt want the stress!! and believe it or not, even with my tiny bridal party i STILL had stress!!

my brother and sister mean more to me than any silly title like groomsman and bridesmaid and just bc i didnt make them dress up a certain way doesnt mean i dont love them or that i dont want them to be an important part of my day!

Same here!!! It made things SOOO much easier. Plus, with just two girls, we still have to get up at like 4AM to start getting ready...imagine if we had more!!!

your mom cried?!

I always wanted a winter wedding, but being a teacher it just makes so much sense to do it in the summer and now I am so happy b/c I am doing all my bright colors and I couldn't imagine being in work a few days before the wedding or having to go back right after the honeymoon

What about sparklers at the RH when you make your entrance--- will they let you? it's KIND of like fireworks!!


I'm just glad I didnt go with the first dress that i THOUGHT I wanted... my taste TOTALLY changed after looking around on here for a few months!

YES! she was like 'In America they have big bridal parties and people are going to think you have no friends and they are going to think that you don't get along with your brother and sister'

ok first of all my siblings are about 40 and they have kids and they totally understand not being in the BP

and second of all - in italian tradition there are no bridesmaids just two witnesses that sign the papers. . . she has this thing with being 'American' but then when i suggest something I consider American she freaks out!
