RECAP: Getting ready

The morning of the wedding I woke up at 8:45am. I called DH and apologized because of a snafu the night before and I didn't want to start the wedding day with stale energy. My BM Sham and RB stayed with me at the hotel. We had breakfast and my hair sylist and make-up artist arrived by 11am followed by the rest of the girls and the mothers. It was a great exprience to have everyone together right before the wedding. We all just sat around, laughed, and had fun.

RECAP: rehearsal dinner pt 2

More pics

As you can see from some of these pics I was pretty exhausted on Friday but we had a great time. Getting ready shots next!

RECAP: rehearsal dinner

As you know the original rehearsal dinner location closed down 2 weeks before the wedding so I had to hunt to find an alternative location. So it kind of altered the environment for the beers and burger theme. Needless to say I kept it super simple with the rehearsal dinner. NO muss No fuss.

Wedding Recap #1

Ok so I wanted to start out with the rehearsal and rehearsal beers and burgers theme dinner but I haven't recieved the pics back from the photog yet. So here are some pics that my planner had on her blog that she took during the set-up for the wedding.

Ok so here is where things got a little ugly. You all know the story about the florist well I found and hired a new florist who was new to the industry but seemed to be professional during our encounters. Well I started little things about her but I just let it go well. The weds before the wedding I went to her house to check out the progress on the centerpieces all seemed well. I took pics and everything. She advised that she had a death in the family and was leaving in Sat morning and would do the set-up friday. When I arrived to the venue for rehearsal my planner advised that she had dropped off everything and left saying she had a funeral to attend. So this caused a bit of a confusion and unpleasant feelings. So Friday after rehearsal dinner my friends and family went back to the venue to finish up the set-up. Long story short we saved the day and everything was beautiful but that was my pre-wedding drama. Moral of the story----ALWAYS HIRE PROFESSIONALS !!!! I knew that because I work in the industry but I was trying to give a newbie a chance to establish business. So the centerpiece here is something we had to make up quick for the cocktail hour display. It was supposed to be a huge 6 ft + tree but no one knew that but me. In the background you can see the AWESOME photowall my dad made before we put the pics on it!!

I's MARRIED now!!

I'm back from JAMAICA mon and we had a great time! I have lots of pics on the way. As much as I I didn't blog on the wedding day. I left my computer at home and I didn't use the business center at the hotel. The wedding was A-W-W-W-W-W-E-E-E-E-E-S-S-S-S-S-O-O-O--M-E-E-E-E-E-E-E!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
