Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
did you feel this way immediately? at the wedding? or did you start having regrets months after?

Re: Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
a little bit of each...
CP florist - before the wedding
Photo - at the wedding (he attempted to leave before the end!)
DOC - after, when I saw candid photos and saw that she did not have the outside back patio set up as we agreed
Video - after, when we saw our godawful video
Except for the video, it was a wonderful day and everything went smoothly.

Re: Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
I actually started having doubts at our engagement photo shoot. The personality of our photographer was completely different from when I met with him initially. He was crass, rude and obnoxious.
I had knots in my stomach when he pulled up to my parents house the morning of the wedding. I just had a baaaaaaad feeling. He looked and acted as if he was coked up, he was speaking to me and my family in a completely inappropriate manner, he disappeared for a half hour during the reception and took the crappiest pictures (blurry, nothing that I had requested, etc). At one point my mom, the MOTHER OF THE BRIDE had to go out to the parking lot to get this guy out of his car and back into the reception.
Sorry - this is still a sore spot for me

Re: Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
Before the wedding. I had concerns about our photographer after I saw our engagement pictures. DH and I were living in VA at the time and got married in NY, so I couldn't keep making trips up to NY to shop around for photographers. I wound up choosing a photographer that a lot of girls on LIW used, but after I saw my engagement photos, I thought they were average. I called the owner and he let us re-shoot the pictures, and they were better but still not great.
To this day, every time I look at our wedding photos I get annoyed that I didn't spend more money and get someone better. I was too worried then about the expense and having to keep making trips to NY, even though the photographs were the most important aspect of the wedding to me.
Oh well; he did get a handful of pictures that I really love, so he wasn't awful; just wasn't exactly what I wanted.

Re: Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
My photographer & videographer but I have no one to blame but myself. Since my MIL wanted to pay for it I let her take care of the whole thing. My photos were nothing special (an amateur could have done a better job)and my MIL requested the video to be put on VHS instead of DVD like DH had requested so all they could do was burn the VHS onto a CD which DH could have done himself for free. The quality was crap. Oh yeah and my MIL's "gift" cost me $1000(found out 9mths after the wedding the reason my album wasn't done was because she stopped making payments). So my wedding also signifies the birth of my disgust for my MIL.

Re: Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
My only issue was that I wished DH had chosen a different Best Man.
Bad bachelor party, bad behavior and possibly the worst toast in the history of weddings.

Re: Question for those who wished they could change something about their wedding...
my band....something was a little off to me the day we signed w/them but everyone else loved him so i just went along with it. the day of my intuition proved right -- i remember cringing (and still do when i watch the video) at my first dance song. first dance song!!!! that should be the one that is one of the best, IMO. Instead, he just 'pinged' out my song (don't want to miss a thing) - the whole band never learned it. when i watch my video, there is one part where everyone is dancing in a line and having so much fun and then they just stop playing and you hear 'c'mon!' from the crowd. i remember even saying something to my friend during my wedding b/c i thought people weren't dancing.

Before. All along I said that I wanted to get married at city hall but my mother and MIL kept insisting I'd regret not having a traditional wedding. I'm just not into being the center of attention.
