OMG It's been 4EVER! Wedding pix & update

Hellooooooo Ladies,
Last time I was on here I was super pissed b/c my DOC quit two days before my wedding, but if you remember I had been doing the whole thig myself anyway. I just wanted to be able to rest on that day. Well, I had plenty of help from my friends & surprisingly my MIL, but then the cake lady was late, my hair person was not answering, & I still needed to make sure thing would get set-up the way I wanted them too. Of course the Lord told me to go head & bring the beach wave hot rollers I order when I planned on doing my own hair b/c guess what? My BM & I had to do my hair one person flat ironing (b/c I am natural & had partial sew-in that I did myself) and the other putting in the rollers. I just wanted to tell you ladies that with everything that went wrong, oh & my DJ not having any of the songs (oh 1st dance was literally the intro and the chorus lol) I still had a blast! Things may get stressful but trust me  just enjoy yourself & have fun, if you want to get mad or cut ppl off do it after the wedding. After all the madness I now want to help brides on a budget and will be adding wedding planning to my resume Lol.







Bought these flowers at the dollar store, diamond pins & mesh wrap on ebay

    Awww! Congrats Mrs!!! I love that last picture and you are rocking that hair!! The dollar store? wow...looks great! Also I am wondering who DOESN'T want to do wedding planning after their wedding!?!? I know I want to but haven't a clue on how to start, especially living in a city where I don't really know anyone! 
    Congrats again!

    Lol thanks I've had it for 8 years & the main question ppl ask me was sooo are you gonna change it for your wedding? Lol, now why would I do that.., and didn't we get married on the same day...I think? Congrats if so, how was it? & yeah I think the planning bug bites us all & I totally think with the same ambition we had making ours happen we can do it for someone else. I'm currently a freelance videographer so I don't have regular co-workers but if you are working & you LIKE the ppl at your job lol, show them your pictures and let them know you have decided to start planning service for other brides and to pass the information along.

    <div>You have had red hair for 8 yrs! Really? I died my natural hair red once, I really did like it and now for some bizarre reason I want to die it jet black, my hair has a natural light brown color. But you are so right..why would you change it!!! I think it looks fab!
    <div>Yes, I actually got married on the 12th! And I woke up the next morning wanting to do it all over again. We had an amazing time! I am glad you asked if I liked the ppl at the my job..lol. I am a scientist and everyone around me is old with gray hair..lol...so not sure there are any potential clients here...lol. But I will figure it out!!!</div></div>

    LMBO...wow i just thought of the lady on say yes to the dress that was a scientist & yes 8 yrs, had to change it once for my sis wedding but that's only because her dress was blue & I didn't want to look like a Simpsons character LOL. But I just took some pix of the stuff I did for my wedding and have been working on creating a profile on wedding website.

    & Yaaay for the 12th! That could have saved us 2,000 but my people were so slow doing things I doubt anyone would have made it on time lol

    Thanks <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" />   you know what I have actually only been over there once, I could never find what I was looking for. My friend shot the video for me so I still have to edit it but I will PM you our video invitation & after everything I mentioned about the dress code one of his friends still showed up in jeans and a T-shirt! Lol
