Wedding Report

Just want to say thank you to anybody that has replied back to my questions and advise on jewellery, hair, bridesmaid dress, invites and everything else i have been stressed about over the past 2 years lol.

Well here is my wedding report and flashes J

Me and James have been together 5 years and decided to get married in Vegas in the Viva Las Vegas Wedding Chapel with a Blue Brothers theme and Elvis. Taking my mum and 12 friends off we went on the 8th September 2011.

We got in Vegas on the Thursday and were due to be married on the Saturday. Thursday night we decided to have a mini hen and stag do. After a night of partying, a relaxing Friday around the pool was needed but first we need to get our marriage licence ?

In the hotel Tropicana Nicki Beach.

After having a great day with everyone around the pool and eating the biggest pizza i have ever seen, i decided to have a little sleep before getting ready to have a meal out. It’s going to be our big day tomorrow and i was so excited. What i didn’t expect is to wake up at 7pm and be violently sick, i couldn’t face the meal so i stayed in the room with James and for hours i was so sick, feeling the worse i have ever felt and panicking as i was getting married within hours, we decided to go to a 24 hour medical centre. I was severely dehydrated, I had to be put on a drip for 4 hours, 3 bags of fluids later and antibiotics to stop the sickness i had a little bit of colour and was allowed to leave.

Thanks mum for taking this picture lol, had to share (i can laugh now).

Well its 5am and i get married in 10 hours!!! i feel so weak and poorly that James wanted to change the wedding date. Getting back to the hotel room i managed to sleep for 3 hours and had some toast. Still feeling really weak, i could have cried but i didn’t want to change the date, i was marrying this man even if i had still got the drip attached to me.

I had a bath and slowly began to dry my hair. The hairdresser and make up lady was coming at 2pm and i was getting ready in mums room with my bridesmaid Stacey. I kissed my future husband and told him i would see him at the chapel at 4.30pm ?

Thank god i had booked someone to do my hair and makeup lol. When they turned up, mum explained to them that i had spent the night in hospital; they were so lovely and said to me not to worry when they had finished with me no one will have known.

Me, Mum and my bridesmaid Stacey, all ready to go ?

First Limo arrives to take the boys while i hide until the 2nd limo comes for me and the girls.

The 2nd limo arrives, the girls sing to me on the way to the chapel while my mum videos them, bless they all look so gorgeous. I feel slightly nervous, how the hell am i going to throw myself around a chapel to the blue brothers, please give me some energy lol.

As we drove up to the chapel, James and the boys were all their waiting, as i got out of the car, his face lit up, he said i looked beautiful and that he couldn’t take his eyes of me. He wasn’t looking that bad too, scrubs up ok Smiley winking At last we are going to get married, after a small rehearsal we are all set to go. As me and mum wait outside for the music to begin, mum then walks me down the aisle.

The blue brothers arrive and the songs start, everyones dancing around the chapel ? Is this really a wedding lol

We are pronounced Mr and Mrs Fearnehough and the husband shocks me by crying bless him, woop woop we did it ?

We then set off in the limos to the stratosphere restaurant to have our wedding meal in the top of the world restaurant. A mowtown band was playing in our hotel that evening so we decided to wach that so when i had had enough i hadn't far to go. The hubby got drunk, while i drank water, normally i like a few drinks but i enjoyed watching him look so happy all night, we managed a few dances and it had turned out a fantastic day.

We spent 7 days in Vegas and we then went onto San Franscisco for our honeymoon which was such a lovely place, we cycled across the golden gate bridge, the views were amazing.

Our wedding reception was back at home on the 8th October 2011. More pics to follow on wedding reception xxx

    Congratulations! Sorry to hear you were so poorly the day before but looks like you still had a lot of fun and obviously were fit again by the UK reception.

    Hope you bought the hair and make up ladies a drink - you do look amazing and not a drip stand in sight Smiley smile
