Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have insisted on the low vases for the tables instead of letting my florist talk me into higer ones 1 week before the wedding. the flowers were AMAZING though - just wish the CP's would have been what I originally asked for.

other than that - NO CHANGES Chat Icon

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I was extremely happy with how my wedding turned out. Even if I had all the money in the world I wouldn't change my venue or vendors. The only thing I would change is I would have written down a few must take photos, but other than I loved my wedding!

DIFFERENT FLORIST........ and I hope she is reading this right now because its been over 3 years and I am still bitter. MAYBE BECAUSE I NEVER RECEIVED AN APOLOGY!

Sorry for the bold but its STILL a sore subject.

Other than that, everything else was perfect!

I would have picked a different dress.

I wasn't comfortable trying on dresses and I think I jumped the gun.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have NEVER EVER chosen my photographer. I hate my pictures and he was a NIGHTMARE to work with. I still get angry almost 3 years later when I look at my album or some of the random pics we have around the house.

I would have a diff photographer, would have gotten photojournalism-type pictures,


Same. DH and I DID get Angelica Glass 'day after pictures' of the 2 of us a month after the wedding, which really eased my pain. I am still so upset at all the details I had and all my hard work and I don't have pictures of it Chat Icon Some of it IS on my video, though, so it cheered me up to see the video.

I wouldn't do the wedding at all. I regret the money and time wasted on it.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

Nothing. I just want to do it again every Saturday night.

If I had MORE money (at the time) I would have done EVEN MORE flowers since flowers are my favorite thing at a wedding...or any other affair!

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have had a videographer. DH didn't want it. He didn't want an annoying camera in our face all day and night and it makes me sad not to be able to rewatch our day. We do have a video of the ceremony though! Other than that I loved every minute of our day!

hair, dress, DJ, flowers....I guess that's it.
I'd also make sure I sang something...my DH was disappointed I didn't.Chat Icon I didn't realize how important it would be to him.

I would have had a great dinner with a few friends and family members and skipped the whole reception. I am very uncomfortable being the center of attention. Chat Icon

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have liked to have toned it down a little bit, probably by the beach. Not allowed my MIL to help in anyway!

I would have worn my hair differently.
I would have done my own make-up.
I would have used a different video person.
I would have cut out half my wedding party.
I would have went to a different place for our honeymoon.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have changed my venue....it was what we could afford back then but now I definitely would have had it somewhere else.

I would have changed my dress too.....worn a strapless dress instead of a halter.

I would have also limited my bridal party. I had sooo many people half of whom I don't keep in touch with anymore and I would have done photojournalistic pics.

I got married in 99 and boy have things changed.

One thing I would definitely still kept is my DJ. They were awesome...till this day people still mention how much fun they had at my weddingChat Icon

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have searched around for another florist, cause the one I used screwed everything up and gave me dead flowers. I would've also would have walked down the aisle alone, instead of asking my brother. (Long story). I also wouldn't have gotten so aggravated that DH's mother didn't have a dress until 10 days before. Despite all this I still had a great time at my wedding.

Re: if you could have a wedding again

I would have kept my photographer, but added on a 2nd photojournalistic photographer from their company. He missed some important shots (like me with the flowergirl?!!!!)

We would use a different tuxedo vendor. The one we used was really over priced, and they were so disorganized. They tried to give 1/2 the guys different style shirt collars, there were rips and burns in the shirts ... and they gave my brother shoes that were 2 different sizes (neither were the right size). And they get suuuuuuch rave reviews on LIW Chat Icon
