To the past brides, what do you wish someone had told you before your wedding?

About the wedding.




people told me, but you don't realize it until after-
It goes SOOO fast! Enjoy every single second! Step back and watch for a minute...

Remember to put reapply lipstick- I didn't do it, my MOH didn't remind me and either did my DOC...

HAVE FUN! I can honestly say that I had SO much fun at my wedding-I danced to almost every single song

Go to your cocktail hour -I got so many 'hellos' out of the way and didn't have to spend the time during the reception. WEddings cost a lot of $$$, you don't want to miss any part of it.. (IMO)

Remember to give the RB his pillow- WHOOPS- he didn't walk down the aisle with it! He did walk into the reception with it and then it got lost- someone took it from him and that was it...gone. It was such a beautiful pillow and we don't have it anymore

Have a MUST take photo list-and if you have something in mind make sure other people know too- I have NO pics in front of my house- just in the backyard and I am so sad about it- My parent's sold the house a few months later....

OHH, remember your tickets for your honeymoon! WHoops! Forgot those and my cousin had to drive from LI to the airport to bring them to me, luckily we left ourselves enough time before our flight!

This was told to me before but it's really important. Remember to take some time with your new DH to just step back and look at everyone enjoying your wedding. Realize that everyone is there to support your love and notice the good time that they're all having; all of the stresses were worth it when you see your guests smiling and having fun!!

Also, def give someone (family/friend) your must take list and have them follow the photographer making sure they get every (or most) shot you want!! There were some key pics that were missed from my wedding but you're so caught up in everything that you don't realize until it's too late.

To look at your husband as you're walking down the aisle! I was so concerned w/ making sure I saw my guests and not breaking down and crying, that I really didn't get a good look at DH until my dad handed me off to him..

Also to have a sleep aid ready the night before..I got NO sleep!!

My very favorite advice thread is on the '07 board, btw..

To not get table cameras, they were a total waste. To move around a little when you are doing portrait pictures. Thats about all I can think of.
