Back and Married!!

Hi Ladies! I got married on May 21st and am back after our honeymoon in Mexico and am getting back into the swing of things!! Check out my bio for some non-pro pics!  Here is my advice to those of you who have not tied the knot yet:

1) Do not let go of control in any planning aspect if you have a hard time doing so normally or have a funny feeling. The things I let go of: cake and flowers backfired. The flowers were too tiny and the cake was HIDEOUS and looked smushed and melted. It was also neon orange...and that is NOT what we showed her. 

2) Don't try to squish too many people in a venue. The lady told us that 150 would fit. We had about 95 and it was SO TIGHT people couldn't really move through the tables.

3) Leave PLENTY of time for pictures. We started the ceremony late and everything got pushed back and we didn't have enough time for portraits :(

    Awww, sorry your cake, flowers, portraits and occupancy didn't work out.

    Tell us what DID now!  What was your favourite part of your wedding?  how did the guests like the decorations?  How does it feel to be a Mrs. now? 

    while you're answering, I'm going to sneak a peak at your bio (hopefully none of my coworkers notice hehehe)

    I just looked at your bio.  You looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL!  You look fresh and young and--the perfect bride.  I love your hair flower.  Did you cry walking down the aisle?  I think I may. 

    And I think your flowers were just lovely.  They were understated but still so beautiful.  I love the groomsmen photos as well.  You and your hubby look truly happy.  Congratulations!!
