What about food? What caterers are you using? Your menus? Open bar? Cash bar? Cocktail hour? Table settings?

@ChicOnTheCheap Ай бұрын

Hi! Those are great questions: Our venue has catering onsite and the food is amazing! We are doing a plated meal, wedge salad, crab cakes and filet mignon. We are doing an open bar and the cocktail hour will have some fun appetizers. Around the end of the night we’ll have some snacks available for our guests. ❤️ Table settings will be white with pretty candles and a floral centerpiece. We are so excited!

Sounds very beautiful. You have everything planned out so nicely. I pray God’s blessings over your marriage and a dream wedding.

@seaglass1111 Ай бұрын

@ChicOnTheCheap Sara Jane, that sounds so wonderful. When I got married I would say my favorite thing was just having my couple of bridesmaids with me and the food lol. What I REALLY didn't like at all or to this day was the flash of so many cameras. It was like the paparazzi! After the reception we went to our hotel room exhausted and overwhelmed with flashes of lights (from those cameras)seared into my brain and eyes lol. We had about 300 people. If I ever am blessed to get married again (we separated and this past December he passed away) I definitely want small!

@michellet3237 Ай бұрын

What are you doing for your favors, invitations, what type of place is your rehearsal at? Everything sounds so great but you HAVE to tell us which dress you picked. I think it is either the middle one or the one on the far left as I am facing the screen!! I am SO HAPPY FOR YOU! Every moment will be just fantastic…mine was!

I never liked the throwing of the bouquet 💐. What we did was ask all the married couples to get on the dance floor. We chose a very nice song and everyone started to slow dance. Then the deejay would make an announcement and say "Anyone that was married today, please leave the dance floor" so my husband and I did. Then he would ask that anyone married less than 5 years to leave the dance floor. He did it incrementally until he was able to say "Anyone married for more than 60 years please stay on the dance floor." By this time, the only 2 people still dancing were my grandparents who were married 65 years! Everyone stood around the dance floor and that was when I gave my bouquet to my grandmother. It was perfect!!

I was a 16 year old pregnant bride. My husband was 17. Our parents were at odds and only my Mother and 2 of my sisters and my husband's aunt attended. I don't think I would have changed my wedding day. It was memorable. We were married for 38 years. My husband died 5 years ago. I am thankful to God I have our daughters and grandchildren who love me and I love them. Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials.

If you have kids at your wedding , definitely make sure they have access to the disposable cameras . Kids take the funniest pictures from an entirely different perspective! As far as my favorite wedding memory , a 4 year old guest thought I was a real princess and she followed me all night fluffing my dress and making sure I had water . It was the sweetest thing to see her eyes light up in awe ❤

I loved the disposable cameras from our wedding, but a few pre-teens got their hands on several and we ended up with at least 12 rolls of BAD bathroom selfies. :(

Best thing is seeing your grooms face as you come down the aisle. The least favorite is the day flies and it’s so hard to be in the moment and remember it all.

@marciarogers1298 Ай бұрын

Hi Sarah Jane! I just want to say I feel that having a great photographer is one of the top most important things to have for your wedding. I've been married 43 years, and we still like to get out our wedding album from time to time and look back on that say. After the cake is gone, the guests have left, and the day is over, your pictures will last a lifetime. I know your wedding will be beautiful!!!

@marciabee Ай бұрын

The big day... the best part to me was seeing my husband's face when he saw me. No one else existed in that moment but the two of us. We were both so unbelievably happy and still are almost 20 years later! The part I kind of wish went differently is that I worried way too much whether people were having a good time or not. I should've focused on every little moment with my sweet groom. I'd done everything I could beforehand to ensure our guests were going to have fun and enjoy themselves, I didn't need to worry. Don't sweat the small stuff. Enjoy every moment because it goes by in a flash and don't forget to eat!! The wedding day is just one wonderful day, but that's when tthe real work begins. Marriage is not for the faint of heart but it is so worth it! One of the many things that has helped my husband and I is to NEVER keep score. Good or bad. Be quick to forgive and to ask for forgiveness. Bad times will come, you will argue about silly and important stuff. The difference is how you handle these challenges together. Always grow together and have fun! Lots and lots of love to you and your husband to be!,❤👰🤵‍♂💒

I was married in May1989. It took a year to plan and I'm glad it did. It gave us time to choose and pay for it all. It was a traditional wedding with everything I wanted. We had a sit down dinner for 100. My gown was from J. C. Penny bridal. I made my head piece that was a thick band of tiny white roses and a 14 ft veil, that I scattered tiny pearls and sequins over , I scalloped the bottom, and finished that with the tiny white roses. , and Everything was perfect. We had a traditional tiered white wedding cake but it was covered in coconut, my favorite. Our colors were pinks, white and dove gray. My bouquet was pink roses with white baby's breath. 🥰🌷💐🌷🌞🌛💗✝

WOW, next Sunday, May 5, my husband and I will be celebrating our 35th anniversary! We went to the court house and married by the JP. We went that route because neither of us like to be the center of attention. We didn't tell our families till after. Mom's weren't happy. No requests, we are best friends, we couldn't imagine life without each other. Our son was born in Dec. 90. We've had a wonderful marriage even though many thought it wouldn't last. We don't always agree, but we never fight. Congratulations to you and your love. Wishing you a long, happy life together ❤️

My late hubby and I got married by a lake in the mountains with only the couple who stood up with us, their two kids who were flower girl and ring bearer, and a minister we had never met! He brought his guitar and sang There Is Love. Perfect day. And very very very affordable.

I’m going to tell you things will go wrong, no matter how much you plan for the perfect event, stuff happens. Don’t get sidetracked, your guests don’t know what you have planned and will have a great time, so enjoy your day, it will be over in the blink of an eye.❤️

Congrats on your upcoming wedding! How exciting!! I married my soul mate over 27 years ago. We married in my boss’s tropical garden at 3 pm on a beautiful spring day. I wanted something simple and easy, yet somewhat elegant. I loved it! We wrote our own vows, the groomsmen and best man wore Looney Toons ties. I made my own bouquet. It cost us less than $500 and we spent our money on an awesome honeymoon and a home! Best of luck to you! May God bless you with many happy, healthy years of love and devotion!

@agm97ga Ай бұрын

One suggestion: Get the caterers to make you and your new hubby to-go plates for after the wedding. There are so many things going on and a lot of people who want to talk to you and see you that sometimes you do not get enough time to eat, even when you are having a seated meal. It is also nice when the festivities are done to have something even if you ate during the meal.

Best wedding was having my hubby come home from the military to marry me!!! The worse is my precious hubby passing away in 2021 after 36 yrs being married. It sucks to be a widow! Our wedding was awesome! Over 300 people and it was Dec 28th. Tons of snow!!

My favorite thing about my wedding is that my dad was the officiant and my grandkids and our dogs were the attendants and my brother walked me down the aisle. It was all family and super sweet! But the best thing was that my fiance and I said our vows to each other. He is so so sweet!

@kimsandifer8466 29 күн бұрын

My favorite part was when my son 10 years old walked me down the aisle and said calm down mom he's a good one and i love ya'll. My least favorite thing was my parent's weren't there. We've been married 24 years in August and i would marry him over n over again.

The favorite part of my stepdaughters wedding in February 2024 were 3 things: Ring blessing where the rings are passed to the bridal party & immediate family to say a prayer, blessing, well wishes over the couple before the ring exchange. The church bell was rang right after the couple was announced as husband and wife to signify to the community they were now married. Lastly, during the father/daughter dance & son/mother dance, after the first verse & chorus of the song, guests were invited to join the dance meaning any father/daughter could come dance together for a special dance or mother & son could share a special dance together. It was beautiful they shared that moment. Such a lasting memory! Congratulations 🍾 on your upcoming wedding!!!! Blessings to you both 🎉❤

The best part of ours is we will be married 39 yrs tomorrow on the 27th and we are still happily married and have 2 wonderful grown children! We had hired 2 bartenders (we didn’t know them but were referred to us) for our wedding who ended up drunk at the end of the reception and one of them pushed the other one face down in the bottom layer of our cake. It was the remaining layer after the cake had been cut and served. Then we stayed local that evening before we left in the morning to Atlantic City for our honeymoon and our entire wedding party, their spouses, our siblings and spouses and close friends were waiting at our hotel and had booked adjoining rooms to ours and we ended up having a big party that lasted all night! We still laugh about it and our honeymoon crashers still talk about it. Looking back, we wouldn’t have changed a thing!

I had some great tips from a event planner when I got married so here you go: A basket with safety pins, Bobby pins. Mini sewing kit, Advil, spot remover, lint roller. tissues anything you could possibly need (if came in so handy with bridesmaids, MIL, MOB even groomsmen) Even at sit down dinner you and your husband are in high demand and you don’t get to eat fully have someone (pick a specific person) to make a Togo bag for when you get to the hotel and are starving! Also great tip for me Pictures: it’s great to have the photographers but have the disposable AND ask quest to take pictures. Years later I go to all the ones given to me by friends & family over the stages photos and love seeing my grandparents all who have since passed laughing, talking, dancing it priceless! Lastly nothing is ever wrong! It may not be what you planned but this is a day of celebration of love, family & friends don’t stress about things bc it isn’t exactly what you planned, roll with it, no one else will know it’s not exact and you deserve to enjoy every moment of this once in a lifetime event! ❤ it flys by and it’s a blur just because so breathe deep, relax and enjoy

@AshleyLopez55 Ай бұрын

Make sure you enjoy your wedding food and cake. After all of the dancing and fun at the reception we were starving so it’s a good idea to see if they caterer makes a to go box meal for you and the groom to enjoy after as well

The only thing I knew about that didn’t go as planned on my wedding day was one of the groomsmen was given the wrong style of tux when he picked it up. Right size and color, but not the right style. The other thing that I was not expecting was that I was extremely nervous walking down the aisle with all the eyes on me. Thankfully my Dad kept me calm. The best thing I liked was that my Family and close Friends were able to join us in our celebration. My food served was also amazing. It was actually all cooked by my Family, so it was a major hit! Congratulations to you both! Wishing you a happy life together. 🤵👰‍♀️💍💐🥂

I got married! The best part was the venue. The regret was the day went so fast. the detail we put into it really didn't seem to be such a big deal in the end.

My biggest regret was not hiring someone to help organize everyone and everything on the day of. I didn’t really need a planner throughout the whole process, but having someone on the day would have made sure that everyone was doing what I thought they were doing, and a lot of things didn’t get done that got paid for still. My favorite memories to look back on are when my older family members got to participate in small ways by reading a quick poem, or just getting a quick bit of recognition.

@jennilevin9586 28 күн бұрын

Make the day/ ceremony/reception all about the two of you!! Do NOT go table to table to say hi, everyone can come to you out on the dance floor. Also pic ALL of your songs for your special moments, throwing the bouquet, taking off the garter, throwing the garter, cutting the cake etc. It’s YOUR day enjoy yourselves. Enjoy your cocktail hour with your guests as well. I didn’t have any bad things from mine only great memories. Been married 24 years and going strong. Have a blast!!

You have planned a fantastic celebration, you and Colton should really enjoy yourselves. Don't worry about any one having a good time you have supplied every thing needed for the best party. After all the months of planning it all goes by so fast so try and savor every moment. Looking forward to seeing your after video, the venue looks spectacular. This is your big day and nobodies business what you spend on anything. You are gracious enough to share all of this with people you don't really know, there should be no negativity.

My wedding was an expensive one too but it was one to remember! My dad was an immigrant Italian that worked hard to support his family and was success in business so this was his choice to take care of all his relatives and feed them well. Beautiful cocktail hour with open bar all night long and no one got crazy so maybe open bar doesn’t work for some but our celebration was fabulous. Five- course meal followed with a Venetian dessert table that out shined my wedding cake. I’ll always remember that day and will be forever thankful to my dad who sadly is no longer with us. My only regret is if you need to bussel your wedding dress, hire someone to do it right!

We splurged on an experienced photographer and now thirty tears later we have beautiful and amazing photos to remember our day by. We also put disposable cameras on the tables for the attendees to use to take photos. Nowadays I realize everyone has a camera! Encourage close friends to send you pics they take with their phones

All the gowns are gorgeous but my favorites are 1 and 3 with number 2 right up there also.

I wore slippers on my Wedding Day under my Wedding Dress also in 2004. Comfort is everything on that special day. A smart and conservative choice.

I did slippers under mine too! Best choice!

My favorite part was seeing the look on my husband’s face when I walked down the aisle. Congratulations on the nuptials!

Sara Jane you do you! Comfort is important on your wedding day- I love how thoughtful you are with your bridesmaids- what about photography- did you mention photographers? I’m over the moon excited with you !! Your Fiance is one blessed man 💐

Thank you so much! We will have a team of photographers/videographers and we will be doing a majority of the photos ahead of the ceremony.

My husband & I planned & paid for our entire wedding. It’s been 28 yrs but I still love the venue we had. This was a second wedding for both of us & my husband gave me anything I wanted (my first was not that way). Everything was perfect, as yours will be! Everything you’ve shown us has been beautiful & classy & I can’t wait to see your actual photos. I did have one question….where are you going on your honeymoon? Somewhere just as beautiful as your wedding I’m guessing. ❤️

Oh my gosh, I am so thrilled to hear that you’re wearing slippers under your wedding dress. Comfort is everything especially at your wedding. The slippers are amazing!!Way to go girl!!!

#3 or #5 are both so elegant! Love the flow of both of them. You save money all year with the content you provide for us, so that money you saved is worth having an expensive wedding! It’s the one special day that shouldn’t matter the cost for you. I hope it all goes perfectly for you and the weather is perfect too!

We had a 2:00 wedding with a church reception. My husband and I had a special dinner planned at a top floor restaurant overlooking the city. This was an incredible way to start a marriage! The one thing that happened was they took apart our cake before we cut it!! Crazy.

Our daughter got married last year and was outside and and we did only white and green flowers too. Instead of changing into white silky slippers we got her white wedge high tops. She said that helped so feet were not sore and still had height with her dress. Remember when getting hair done you probably don’t want to be pulling a top over head. Button down is the key so it doesn’t mess up hair or makeup. And yes key to having a wedding planner is to make sure the venue does as they said they would as our place had helpers that were supposed to act as a wedding planner and it was all talked/planned out yet there were many little things that they didn’t do or forgot to do and when in the moment you don’t think about it as so much going on. Definitely would have been nice to have someone making sure things were done properly. I would pick dress 3 as it is even similar to my dress 30 years ago and I wanted to feel like a princess and the fullness on bottom makes me feel that way.

Best moment I had my second grade class walk down the aisle as flower girls and ring bearers. It was so cute. The worse part was father in law taking people to the parking lot to see a big fish he caught. I loved dress 3

It was our second marriage. We did a very small, small wedding on the beach. A reception at the place where we had our first date, where he proposed, and we had a small intimate lunch with family and friends. We go back each year on our anniversary. It was the best day ever!

I am so excited for you! I loved my wedding! The only thing I would change is I would do a no kids wedding. I felt bad about not wanting kids there and decided to let them come and totally regretted it. But, we are 33 years strong and that’s what counts❤❤

Congratulations to you and your groom, Sarah. I can't wait to see the wedding dress. I'm guessing # 2...? Either way, I'm sure you'll look beautiful! Our wedding was simple, yet beautiful, we had a ton of help from family and friends. I wish you many blessings on your upcoming nuptials💕

Very nice Sara Jane.! I have been married nearly 46 years. What I liked best, though not actually part of the wedding, was leaving for the honeymoon. I liked that outfit better than my wedding gown. Biggest regret?.....not having my hair professionally done. And my mother had a cousin who was a professional stylist. How dumb was I? My marriage has been wonderful? I wish the same for you.

You are going to be beautiful a bride. I love that you are pampering you on your special day! The one thing I remember on my niece's wedding day was you could feel the Love everywhere and everyone was 13:32 having fun. There were some hiccups but it all worked out. God bless your day. Can't wait to see you in your wedfing dress! ❤

@alexandyesisarria4764 Ай бұрын

Everything sounds so lovely!! ❤ The wedding dresses are all dreamy! I would say #3 would be my choice. It’s elegant, modest, timeless, so feminine and the ball gown skirt ads such romance. With my wedding, my sister in law told me to make sure and absorb each moment of the day because it goes so fast. The part I love most is that I did just that. I slowed down and took mental photos of the smiles and love. My least favorite was because of a lack of budget I did not get a video, send off or photography through the night. But all in all, I loved my wedding! Wishing you a blessed day!

Best thing was packing up a plate of food for us to eat when we got back to hotel! You don’t have time to eat and enjoy the food you spent time thinking and planning at the wedding!
