The day went perfectly on a whole. I forgot the bubble wands and my auntie managed to photobomb the confetti shot by accident but all in all was perfect.
Couldn't sleep at all the night before, and didn't help that the family were directly below my room making a right noise! Turns out they were blowing balloons up with helium to put in the venue but all but one popped before we got there :(
The morning was pretty calm up until 11:30 when we got our hair done, I was running around like a headless chicken when I got back. Got my make up done and the photographer arrived and took photos of everything. I seemed to be the one trying to keep everyone in check and silly questions from the sisters like 'wheres my ipod??' just wound me up!
A few blips when the wedding planners didn't take the order of service and buttonholes straight to the church so my uncle had to come ask me to ring them to find out where they were, as I was getting put into my dress half a hour before the ceremony!
The camper arrived and took my bridesmaids, flowergirl and mum to the church, and then came back for me and dad.
It has been raining all morning and I had just settled for knowing it was going to rain, but it stopped around 10am, and didn't really start again at all :) until later at night when it threw it down. I was settled on having no photo's outside etc cause of the rain but I could almost cry when we could!
When I got to the church the planners helped me sort my dress and we said a prayer in the church porch with the vicar. Then he went in, said a few words and introduced me and my bridal party. I got a bit emotional when I walked in and saw the turnout. I had seen my sister in law before and asked how many people were there and she said 'all the people you want are here' so I wasn't expecting the whole church full. I pretty much ran down the aisle and knocked every pew end but one off haha.
Was amazing to see my husband all dressed up and smart :)
The ceremony went without a hitch. Hubby choked up in his vows which was so sweet. I struggled with the nerves and worried I wasn't saying the right thing.. 3 words seems hard to remember all of a sudden! I got a bit choked with one bit too.
When we were near the end of the ceremony we had to kneel and pray again and I noticed people clocking hubbys shoe's... they said 'she's mine' on the bottom!
We managed to get photo's outside eventually and our guests went for a ride on the vintage bus whilst we went for champers in the camper!
Got some unique piccys with both campers at the racecourse which should be lovely when we get them :) Then went inside to wait for the guests.
The breakfast went perfect, the speeches were lovely and hubby did me proud :) My gran from my dads side wasn't able to make it, and had sent a weddig telegram, and best man read it out, and that really almost set me off.
So many people turned up but people didn't really stay for long. By 10pm I was shattered and really didn't think I would last the whole night, our elvis wasn't that good, so people got bored, but by 12, there were a select few of us that just were partying the night away :)
I had the time of my life came on and we amused everyone by doing the lift haha! Got it on video! hahaha!
All in all, it was the most amazing day of my life, and it really did go SO quick. Went back this morning to collect the remainder of our stuff and it was set up different and it just made me feel so sad :( aha. Think I might have to throw myself into planning a blessing!
Got so many compliments on my dress etc, I felt like a real princess :)

CommentAuthorMrsShaw
Thank you ladies :) There's a few ones where I look awful and silly ones, but most of them are suprisingly lovely :) There were so many people taking photo's, and my friend filmed the entire day as a wedding gift, he's an absolute star and went above and beyond what we asked of him.
My wedding ring actually feels a bit strange! I've been used to no ring on that ring at all for the past few weeks whilst my engagement ring was away, and now i got double the ringness on there haha!

Thank you ladies :) More friends have uploaded pictures and I just love them. Can't wait to get the DVD and photo album :)
One thing I will say, is that what really made our wedding was the kids being there. We're talking from 1 month old upwards. There were a few squeeks in the ceremony and our 2 year old flowergirl was wandering round near the front, but they were almost perfectly behaved. During the reception they were the life and soul of the party and at our first dance I noticed all of them came and sat on the floor around the dance floor to watch :) It was so special and I couldn't imagine them not being there.
I only mention it as I know some people were/are thinking about not having kids there at all. :)
I'm sure I've missed something out in my orginal post but I rambled enough :)

CommentAuthorMrsShaw
Oh and I had a few on the morning :) My mum and dad had bought me some crystal earrings as I didn't get any. Then my little sister said she was going to practice singing her song again (she performed whilst we signed the register) and instead of it just being a backing track, it was one that my mum and dad had paid for her to go record professionally! It was amazing and she gave me it as a present! Then I walked into the hallway and there was 2 stands there that they had made up with flowers in the top and love hearts hanging off :)
Oh I want to live it all again!!

CommentAuthorLegoWife
I think sometimes the kids willingness to get up and dance encourages the adults to get up and dance as well, can make all the difference if the adults would usually just sit in little groups drinking and only talking to people they would usually talk to!

Sounds like your day was lovely! Congratulations x
CommentAuthorMrsShaw
Exactly :) It was just wonderful :)
Hubbys mum even said it was the best wedding she's been to in a while! Everyone we spoke to said the service was beautiful, I don't think anyone got bored as we had songs everyone knew and the readings were short.
It makes me that much happier knowing everyone had an amazing time :)
