Our ceremony time was very early but I knew I wanted the church and it was the only time they had so we stayed at Hotel Allegro (never stay here btw they are not a nice hotel. Staff was rude, slow and walls are paper thin) so we were closer to the church in the morning.
The morning of our wedding was insane. We woke up around 5:30 to start hair and makeup for the bridesmaids and flower girls. Hubby and I tried to run to the bank because we had been running so late the day before - not good. We couldn't find any bank with the lobby open until after 9 and their was no way I would have gotten back to the hotel, ready and to the church on time so thankfully some of our bridal party spotted us cash to pay for hair.
The boys arrived to the church first and then the limo came to get us. I should have given the boys everything for the church because with 13 girls we made it to the church at like 10:59 lol. We were running like crazy to get the boys boutaniers, unity candle and all the other little stuff in place Oops. :)
We were able to start though and everything was great. I of course cried like a baby. I was more frustrated about crying only because its the groomsmen that could see me and I know trying to talk and cry I made some silly faces so they now have ammo on me. :)
It was raining during our ceremony and when the guests went to open the door after it looked awful. Thankfully 2 seconds later it stopped raining and didn't rain again. :) I still wouldn't walk all the way down the church stairs at 1st for bubbles because my dress hadn't been bustled and the stairs were very wet. Everyone was a little confused at first because I just kind of came to a halt.
My favorite part was our boys as the ringbearers. We put some flowers on our youngest sons stroller and had one of the flower girls push him down the isle. In their little suits omg they were just too adorable.
lol I was trying SO hard not to cry but... All well. :)
