Original post by Jordan
(Sorry for all the posts...wouldn't let me fit it all in one post.)
Everyone told us the day would fly by...I just never realized how fast a day could really whip past you. I was happy to have a late ceremony - 6:30...gave me the day to relax with friends and family...eat...
Pre-Wedding details...
I purchased my gown and mantilla from Paradise Bridal in Patchogue. Donna was a doll to deal with...but once I purchased and was measured (hallow to hem), I began dealing with the manager, Liz. My gown came in almost 1 1/2 inches too SHORT...instead of putting PB through the cost and hassle of ordering another gown for me, I decided to find shoes with a lower heel. How hard could that be? Found the most perfect shoes - again - and the dress was STILL too short. By this time, the designer was closing shop so hopes of me getting a new gown, were shattered. After a bit of stressing, I found some shoes that while they were extremely comfortable, were so unsexy. Even on my wedding day, I gritted my teeth and cursed PB for their lack of proper measurement and the stubborn seamstress who originally measured me. But in the end, Rosalie did my alterations and the 7 point bustle and I could NOT have been happier with my dress. She did a fantastic job.

No, I haven't posted proofs yet...between looking for a TY picture and having our parents pick out their album's asap - I haven't had time to scan. I plan on doing some scanning this weekend though...I'll update then.
My advice wrt photography - and I know I saw this a lot when I was planning - is to be VERY specific with your photographer wrt what you want and don't want. If there are specific shots with specific people, make a list and give it to your photographer. I did things over the phone and then the day came and went and there were certain photograph's I wanted...that I didn't get.

Aw, thanks...yup, we both took all the pictures. We're photo freaks - took over 400 digitals, 8 rolls of 35mm and an underwater camera.
