Question of the Week

kkidd28 · June 2010

What do you usually remember about weddings? Think back on any you have attended, seen on TV, etc. Was it the dress, the music, the reception? What was most memorable and what do you want most remembered from your wedding?

The bride walking down the aisle with her father, hands down.

At my wedding, I want people to remember our invitations, flowers, and centerpieces. We are DIYing all those and have worked very hard!

I usually remember the ceremonies. The unique elements, the songs, and the vows. I'm "stealing" two of the songs in our wedding from friends who have gotten married. I never remember the decorations or the invitations...sometimes I remember the food. Always remember if they were nice or not while cutting the cake.

I think I'm big on the ceromony too. I like the invitations and programs too, but I always lose that stuff. I get caught in the moment and remember the feelings of seeing the bride come down the aisle and the little stuff they did to make it unique. So for us, I want them to remember the 3 stranded cord and that I'm having a harpist play the music throughout. I want it to be different!

I usually remember the ceremony, and I always keep invitations and programs. I remember the general feel of the reception--fun or awkward or boring.

I hope people remember the stuff I put a lot of though into--like our 1000 cranes and I really just hope our wedding is an opportunity for married couples to remember their day and I want everyone to have a good time!

Ooh, and our tandem bike.

I remember the vows and the looks on their faces (if I am close enough to see) and I also remember the food.

I always remember the appetizers (if there are enough or not!), the music and the dancing.

I usually remember very little from weddings (or any event for that matter). I guess that the most memorable things are anything that went wrong. Like I remember one of my best friends sobbing just before she walked down the aisle. And I remember a groom that said his vows wrong. I guess those are probably the things that the bride and groom would rather that I not remember!

I think that most people are more likely to remember food and the feel of the reception (was it fun, was there dancing/no dancing, was the food good, etc.).

I remember the bride and groom's expressions as they said their vows, and then how long it took for the reception to start (and for guests to get fed). I also tend to remember awkward moments, like at the last wedding I went to -- nobody told the DJ that the pastor was giving a prayer for the meal, not a toast, so the DJ called for a big round of applause after the pastor finished!

I usually remember the way that the groom and bride interact. We went to a wedding of a couple that had known each other for a very short time and it seemed very strange that they pulled the trigger so soon....but during their ceremony he cried and she kept giggling and fidgeting and they were so cute together.

Of course, they are getting a divorce now (not even 3 years in) but overall I'd say that's what I remember.

lleavell · June 2010

I usually remember what the bride and her attendants wore, plus anything that was unusual about the wedding (a friend had her reception at the Ft Worth Zoo and there were animals walking around with their handlers during dinner!) I also remember if anything was too long.

From my wedding I want people to remember the ceremony and that they had a lot of fun at the reception.

amylo84 · June 2010

I always remember if the ceremony is waaaay toooo loong. It is a good thing for people to remember your ceremony, but not when they say "that was the longest most boring ceremony I have ever been to". too long ceremonies become uninteresting half-way through but I always remember them.

TwylaB123 · June 2010

I tend to remember the bride's dress and how long the couple kept their guests waiting while they took pictures. I used to help videotape weddings and remember some of the "helpful advice" we recorded at various receptions.

I hope our guests leave with an overall positive memory of a good time. They'll probably remember our reception "entertainment"--karaoke's a bit unusual for a wedding. (Hopefully they won't remember how badly I sing!)

tyboyd · June 2010

I LOVE food! So, I remember the food. And I remember the bride's dress... if it's memorable.

I want ppl to remember my reception. I PRAY that it's super fun! Also, if we get the venue I want, I definitely want them to remember that!

My sister's :: The balloons and how she couldn't get her husband's ring on and had to spit on his hand - very her - very funny - cute

Recent cousin's :: How the groom got sick and went to the hospital. Sad but it will be all anyone remembered - worst part was he was most definitely hung over. The groom was being really... babyish, but the bride handled it well and was incredibly happy and nice to her guests and not freaking out - which I thought was pretty amazing.

I like the things that go badly. I know things will go badly - there is a small part of me that kind of hopes it rains. I'm definitely buying umbrellas in fun yellows and greens so if it does we can run in the rain and take photos. It's all about how you handle the bad parts that makes the difference. I love when things go wrong and they can just laugh about it.

@ my best friends wedding, I was a BM and what not only I but everyone on that stage remember most...THE KISS! These two had never kissed anyone before they kissed eachother on the wedding day. Sure I rememeber other elements, the slide show I worked dilagently to put together etc, but none of us will ever forget the looks on their faces as they awkwardly kissed for the first time in front of 300 people! Then as we exited the sanctuary, every one of the wedding party needed a few moments to compose themselves...because we were all laughing so hard (the bride and groom had excused themselves for a moment alone).

From my wedding, I hope people remember it as a fun time. We are planning a worshipful ceremony, but an old fashioned picnick reception. I want people to feel relaxed, and enjoy the company, good food, and family comfy atmosphere. Just a fun time of relaxation and fellowship.

missrekaeagle · June 2010

I always remember the bride's dress, the music, and the food. I hope people remember those things about my wedding.

Myroni03 · June 2010

I remember the cake always!! haha

eagles347 · June 2010

I always remember the bride's walk down the aisle with her father (total Daddy's girl here) and the way the bride and groom interact with each other. I also just observe the wedding party...their expressions, any tears, etc. I usually talk a lot about the music on the day of, but eventually the songs slip my mind.
