Quick post-event check in...

Hello Ladies!Since my "honeymoon" is nursing school, I'm busy catching up after 4 days of not doing any schoolwork and only doing wedding stuff, so I'm making this short and then I'll give my vendor reviews and such later this week.It was AWESOME!!! None of the "mess-ups" were major, so that was great. The weather cleared up nicely just in time for us. My brother (who agreed to get ordained just for my event) was PHENOMENAL and had even the DJ tearing up. Everyone looked beautiful. The few flowers I had looked exquisite. The DJ ROCKED. The party was a blast. My father-daughter dance brought the house down (we had everyone clapping during the dance). My grandparents were floored that they were the last two dancing during the generations dance by 3 generations (they've been married for 71 years). The kids were precious (and all well-behaved!)-- one of my DH's cousin's little boys was in love with me because he thought I was a real-life Disney princess (how great is THAT feeling?!). I couldn't be happier (well, if I didn't have to go to school this morning, I would be). All my hard work was rewarded-- my centerpieces were a hit, as was the card box.And the food was delicious-- lots of compliments on that, as well.I'd love to hear from the other brides, though. I was thinking of you all on Saturday during the intermittent rain showers...

    Oh, man! Our father-daughter dance was AWESOME! LOLWe started out with some sappy tune (I don't even know what song it was-- I told the DJ to pick it out) and we started dancing for about 15 seconds. Then I looked over at the dj, told him this wasn't working for us and could he try something else (all loud enough for people to hear). Then my dad I rocked out to "Old Time Rock & Roll" by Bob Seger.

    Yay! It sounds like you had such a fun, wonderful day! And I love that you got to be a "real princess" and your grandparents outlasted the other generations. How awesome! Good luck transitioning back to school.
