Resend of my MIA post from yesterday... >Speaking of which: >3) Things *will* go wrong. Don't worry about 'em. Nobody but you and your wife >will notice when things go wrong, and no one will remember 'em but you, either. > >4) Remember that it's your day. Enjoy yourself. Be happy. Have fun! :)
This is great advice. On our wedding day, the limo failed to show up at first, so my wife was very late to the wedding (and the driver didn't know how to run the limo AC, so it was like 100 degrees in there), we were stuck with a jerky photographer, and the reception hall air conditioning couldn't really keep up with the late-July heat and 220 people. But everyone had a blast. We didn't let the small annoyances ruin the moment and later a few people told us we had the best wedding they'd ever been to. Funniest moment: The 8 or so doctors and nurses from the OB/GYN practice my wife worked at in Pennsylvania rented a bus to come to the New Jersey wedding. At the reception, they cleared everyone off the dance floor, got out there with feather boas and hats, and did a pseudo-strip dance to the song from "The Full Monty", a favorite movie of my wife's. Afterwards, other people kept asking me "Who WERE those people? That was great!" Anti-fun moment I heard about a former co-worker's wedding: At the cake-feeding part, he smooshed some cake on her face, and some icing got on her dress. She immediately screams: "You've ruined EVERYTHING!" and runs crying out of the room. Then her sister yells after her "You bitch!" and chases after her. It kinda put a damper on things, after that... -Bry _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
