My newlywed advice
Now that it's over I can finally put in my 2 cents! Here's my bits of advice to all you brides:
1. You'll never be as skinny as you want to be. Accept it and feel as beautiful as you are.
2. Have a wedding day coordinator!!! We didn't and here's what went down- tea not made, kegs not tapped, couldn't get in brides room until 1 hr before wedding, photographer took too long, etc.
3. Accept that things will go wrong- weather, time period (you get your period! Yeah, it happened!), things get lost.
4. I don't care if it's 100 degrees out, you hardly notice! All you care about it you look hot, not feel it! Buy that beautiful and big dress if you want it!
5. Your feet will hurt.
6. People will steal your decorations!!!!
7. He will slam cake in you face, so get him back.
8. You will look beautiful no matter how much you pay for makeup and hair.
9. Laugh, cry, if you feel it, do it.
10. Greet every guest, they came here for you.
11. Write down gifts!!!
12. Don't let you hubby write down gifts...
13. Have lots of fun, and don't get mad when the best man changes out of his tux before the toast.
14. Thank everyone for coming!

First of, congratulations!!! I just looked at your pictures and everything looks so pretty. Love the bridesmaids with the umbrellas and your cake.

I totally agree about Day-Of-Coordinator. Everyone I talked to who had one said they didn't worry about a thing, and if something went wrong they didn't know about it until after the wedding cuz the coordinator took care of it.

LOL at cake in the face, I have given STRICT instructions and told him he would be wasting money since my makeup is like 150 bucks.

Once again Congratulations. You're a beautiful bride.
