Wedding Related Question
Mine was 15 months ago and I just used my new program to make a slideshow DVD with a lot of our proofs that I did not use in the album or get enlargements of. I was thinking of making one for my MIL since I never gave her an album or prints. (We are not too close but recently I think she expressd to my husband she wanted pics).
So for Christmas I was going to give her a couple of 5X7s and the slideshow. Corny? Nice? Too late?
After this long should I be over it...cuz I'm not I miss my wedding day!!!!!!!!
Be honest. When was YOUR wedding and are you over it?
ETA: She had already told us she can't exchange gifts this year for $$$$ reasons. So I just figured this would be like a token not so much a Christmas present.

Re: Wedding Related Question
I was married Aug. 31 of this year and no offense totally over it.
My sister is talking about getting married, and we just went to a wedding this weekend. Totally over it.
But those ideas are good, definitely give her some nice photos framed and the DVD is good too!

Re: Wedding Related Question
Considering my wedding was also 15 months ago, My DH and I don't have our album and haven't even aksed the parents about which pics they want in theirs I would say you are fine.
FYI--we both had end of the year weddings so Xmas was right after the wedding. You are perfect with giving wedding related things to the fam for years to come!

Re: Wedding Related Question
I think its a nice gift. I got married last May, so about 19 months ago and am totally over it.
We finally hung up some of our pictures, but I don't ever really think about it anymore.

Re: Wedding Related Question
Our wedding was June of '06 and we're first giving our parents enlargements for christmas this year! And I made my grandparents a little album of our pro pics through shutterfly.
We did make them albums, but never gave them a nice enlargement. IMO, I don't think it's ever too late to give parents/grandparents pics of your wedding.

Re: Wedding Related Question
i also got married in June of 2006 and we are giving DH's mom and dad (separately bc they are divorced) parent albums for christmas. We're also giving them some enlargements. I know they will be thrilled to receive these regardless of the amt of time it's been since the wedding!
You're not alone. WHile I am over the planning part - I still love to look at our pics and video and remember our day!!

Re: Wedding Related Question
I think it would be really nice to do for her, but I'm not sure I'd give it to her as her only Christmas present...

Re: Wedding Related Question
Our wedding was 7 months ago..frankly I couldn't be more over it. So glad it's over. It was a wonderful day but I am so happy I don't fret over things like favors and place card holders anymore
We got enlarged family portraits for both sets of parents for Christmas this year.

Re: Wedding Related Question
I think its a really nice idea.
We've been married 50 months  so obviously I'm over it by now, but to be honest I was so glad when it was over. Don't get me wrong it was one of the best days of my life, but I had so much more free time, less family cr@p, less stress, etc. when it was over.

then i think that's a perfect gift - it's the kind of gift that's thoughtful and meaningful, without rubbing in the fact that she can't exchange gifts this year - you can even give it to her a little early if you want so it's less of a christmas gift if you think that would help or be better for her.

Re: Wedding Related Question
i think it's a nice idea, esp since you're really not exchanging gifts this year.
and to answer your question, got married 14 months ago - sooo over it.

Re: Wedding Related Question
I was married Aug. 06 and I do miss it a little but its taken up with the joy of being pregnant!
Anyways----I think its totally appropriate to give your mil the pics. She did ask for some pics so I'm sure she would appreciate it.
