This is a pic of me being disappointed in my flowers. They were not what I asked for. I even sent pictures to them.

lol...you all are so cute with your funny faces!

I wasn't worried in this pic, but right before I was! Before the wedding I kept having this recurring nightmare that we weren't going to fill out the paperwork correctly and so the wedding wouldn't be legal...I know I was being dramatic...but I've never been married before, i had no idea all we needed to do was sign!lol

That's funny because we totally forgot about the marriage license. My maid of honor had it in my binder, but my parents ended up having to track down the pastor once everyone had been dropped off after the reception and DH and I had to go to the hotel where the matron of honor and best man were staying to get them to sign it at like 11 pm that night

That is a bummer! What was it supposed to look like? Mine didn't end up looking like I imagined it either.

Here is our entrance to the reception. We were laughing because our friend who was annoucing us didn't know what to call us since I kept my last name. He ended up saying both last names which somehow made us laugh because you could tell he wasn't sure the best way to say it I know I have a better shot, but its not in Photobucket.

Worried look because they had put my memory frames on the front of my flowers when they were suppose to be hidden under my bouquet. Thankfully, they sent someone over to fix it right away.

All fixed:

Sorry to hear that. I even had a phone call from the florist to confirm what I wanted. I specifically said "two toned" as close as possible or call me and I'll change it. No call and thats what I got. No offense to anyone but I really think Intimate/Escape brides get cheated on the details. Or may be it was just my planner and the people I worked with.

Yeah, that doesn't look anything like it!!

I wanted this, but with a little bit of color...

I got this

They did a pretty good job, but I think they missed the point that the orchids are HUGE in the example, and you can barely see them in mine. Plus, they clumped the peach roses together in the center of the bouquet, and my colors were purple. I think if I had had them do all white, it would have looked great.

I've often wondered if this is one of the toughest things about planning a wedding. You have an "image" of what you want, and you think you convey it, but somehow they (whether it be your florist with the bouquet or the bakery with the cake colors) don't quite "get" it and they mess it up!

The closest thing I have to a worry moment. I had airbrish makeup and I have oily skin. It was 78 on our wedding day in December and I was hoping for much cooler. It felt much hotter walking around in the dress in the sun and I did not want my airbrush to look sweaty. Other than that I didn't care to much about the details. I was just really in the moment.

Wedding day:

2 weeks ago at our HM in Barcelona:

How about sharing a moment where you had a minute alone or were just able to reflect on the day. I don't remember exactly what I was thinking here, but it is honestly one of the few moments I had alone that entire day.

 

[DisneyDmbNut]

I was waiting for the photographer and just really enjoying the moment
