June 2012 Weddings

One thing....you wish WR

What is one thing you wish you could have at your wedding....or wish you could do, but probably won't? I've bee going through my wedding pineterest board and have some things that I think would be fun....

I could probably do this, but won't:


It's just so fun and I LOVE to snowboard :)

  • have a videographer. It's not in our budget but if we had an unlimited budget that is the one thing I would want to add

  • Definitely videographer.  And peonies - I was told its too late in the summer to be sure we'd have them so we're doing fluffy roses instead, but I lovvve peonies!

    This exactly. I really wanted to have videas of my first dance with my uncle/father on my FFIL's side (its complicated. lol)
    And, I wanted a video of the ceremony.
    I would probably hire a second photographer to specifically document the boys on TDO.

    I would also probably have a live band, a bigger venue, and ALL my friends and family there. I would have a real caterer and a two week honeymoon with someplace to live afterwards.

  • If money was endless.... we would have a photobooth and double the amount of chairs we are renting so we didnt have to move the chairs from the ceremony to the reception.

    I would love to have a particular venue but it was way too expensive and i would love to also have fireworks at the end of the reception but my dad said no. lol. i would also love to have a mariachi band ( my fiance is hispanic) and a horse and carriage to take me to the church ( but our venue only allows that if we have our ceremony on their property and we are having the ceremony in a church.
  • Photobooth for sure. I love pictures and I'm certain that my photographers will get a lot of amazing shots but there's just a different kind of picture you get with a photobooth. Plus everyone gets a copy of their pictures and you get a full album of them yourself.

  • I would love a 2nd shooter to capture moments with the guys too. Also I would love to have chiavari chairs at the ceremony. We are only having them at our reception but they are TOO expensive to have them for both.

  • Large floral centerpieces. There's some I have on pinterest I love but I didn't even bother asking prices. I love our flowers now though.
  • I would love to have our photographers all day.
    Our package only has them (2) for 5 hours, so they will start working when the ceremony starts. No getting ready or before pics from them. :(

  • I would have gotten trolleys to transport the bridal party everywhere. It was just another $500 that I really did not want to spend. We're still making sure everyone gets where they need to go...it'll just be more of family doing it than a paid driver. I would also pay for the entire bridal party to stay together the night before the wedding in a big suite. Maybe also have a bluegrass band during cocktail hour

    Other than that, I've been so blessed and fortunate to be able to find a way in our budget to make everything else I wanted work.

    Michelle, that's sad about peonies...my florist said they should be able to get them for me. I'm really only concerned about them in the bouquets.
  • I would have the wedding in Cayman and pay for my mom to go. I'm so tired of people asking me if they can just come to the wedding and not go on the cruise. Getting off the boat was supposed to be for only my mom and grandparents who couldn't travel, but it's gotten way out of hand with about 40 people getting off.

  • Zims- Good one! I would also do much more elaborate centerpieces. I love flowers!!

  • I would love to have a live band play at the reception and a videographer(no room in the budget) and a 2nd photographer.
  • I would have a destination wedding and pay for our whole guest list to go. 

    If I kept the same venue, I would spend a lot more on table decorations-really nice linens, I would choose china rather than just the standard stuff the venue has, more flowers. And the reception would be professionally lit.

  • Kelsey reminded me that I'd also love to have a horse drawn carriage to take us from the wedding to reception.

    And after reading a lot of responses, I'm really thankful for my two photographers. They're husband and wife so they do their wedding photography business together.

  • Photobooth! After seeing one at a wedding reception I attended recently, it was so much fun and I wish we could have one.

    Other than that, I wish we could take a honeymoon right after. Instead, we have to see how much $$ we get as wedding gifts and try to make one from there.
