Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have loved to have Angelica Glass for my pictures but she was booked on my day....

I also wish we played more DJ music and not only our traditional Greek band....

I also wished I didn't invite few couples who instead of 2 people came with 5...

Other than that I Loved my wedding!!

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I don't regret my wedding day, but knowing what I know now:

-I'd make it much more casual: black tie not admitted Chat Icon
-clam bake on the water or in our backyard OR just a plain old BBQ with those red & white table clothes!!! Chat Icon
-and I would have had it earlier in the day so those who had kids could bring them

Re: if you could have a wedding again

Yes...I would have gone away to a Sandals resort and invited the same people from the original wedding, but I would have had a different dress. I also would have gotten married in October instead of June just so I could "feel" the temperature difference!

If I could redo the wedding I already had I would: get a different dress, different florist, spend the night w/Joe, and spent more time w/my whole family instead of just my Mom and God Mother....

Re: if you could have a wedding again

Nope! I wouldnt change a thing except that I wish I was about 25 lbs lighter at the time!


ETA - maybe I would have tried to wear my hair half up/down instead of all up.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I absolutely totally LOVED our wedding, but if I were to change anything it would have been everything! We would have eloped. Just the two of us, a priest, the beach, and a sunset.

just thinking back about my wedding day and the whole process gives me physical painChat Icon


eta
don't get me wrong, i loooved the actual wedding day and love my hubby but not the agitation



ITA!!! I wanted to elope! but I would have stood my ground more with MIL, and tried to be more forceful with paying for certain things so my mom couldn't use it against us now.

Well, considering all of these brides are PO'ed at me on LIweddings because I just told the truth about my photographer, I guess I can safely say my photographer. They have been the one black hole. Besides that I loved all of my other vendors. My wedding day was fantastic.

Two things... I would have hired a better photographer and I would have had less members in the bridal party.

Definitely a different photographer.

I might have also changed the day of the wedding to a Saturday. We just felt a little rushed taking pictures. But overall, it was a great day!



I agree baby...we also probably would have had it at the Atlantis Aquarium too.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have changed the hour of the church ceremony(made it earlier, it was to close to the reception)...one thing screwed up and screwed up everything else with time.

Loved my band, but listened to everyone and added an outside dj which su..ked.

Other then that I loved my wedding as well.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have looked around at more reception sites...I was happy with where we had it but we've been to so many weddings since at places that have blown me away so much more.

I would've gone dress shopping instead of having my dress custom made. I feel I missed out on that experience.

I would have let the band play more corny music, I think people would've been on the dance floor more for those silly songs everyone likes to dance to.

I would've enjoyed myself more...I tried to be a hostess the entire time and made sure I talked to everyone, but the night went by so fast and I wish I would've just had more fun.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I wish we had taken a few more pictures at Flowerfield. We had a bunch, but the grounds are so beautiful I would have liked a few more.

Other than that...nothing. The day was perfect!

Re: if you could have a wedding again

Nope I really would not change anything except have friends in my bridal party that were not in it because at the time we were not talking. Thats the only thing I would have changed.
Everything else was exactly how I had planned and wanted it.
