If anything what would people change about there wedding

rachel2012, 14 August, 2012 at 21:08 Posted on Planning 0 10

Very much having hindsight is a beautiful thing the last few weeks, am having massive stresses with the accommodation and although I love love love my venue I do think if I knew how much extra stress it would be trying to sleep everyone I would have just had it at home and be done with it!!

    I perhaps would have chosen a venue that had accomodation, but that said I don't think I would have wanted to change the venue as it was so beautiful on the day.

    Everything we did/ had was so much better than we could have wished for and all the stresses pay off in the end (I could have chucked the towel in with a few weeks to go!!)

    Thank you. That's kinda how I'm feeling now, after another night of waking up at 2am because of it I have had to hand the reins over to H2B for a while otherwise I shall be able to carry the whole wedding party around under my eyes! Glad to hear that it does all pay off in the end.

    Like 28/07/12 bride, i might also have gone for one with accommodation, but other than that i don't think i'd change anything. I might change my mind after the wedding though.

    The only thing i would change is the bar tab stipulations - we put £800 behind the bar for all drinks but should have said wines and beers only as the tab went by 9pm. Other than that wouldnt change a thing.

    I'm having wobbles about our photographer, wasn't as impressed with the pre-wedding shoot as I would have liked and have since seen my friend's amazing wedding photos and wish we'd booked their guy!

    It's ironic that the you guys would possibly change to having accommodation and that's the bit that's causing me the most hassle. I think I would be ok with it all except that people have to book it through me not the house where as if it was the other way round I think I would be fine. Oh well to look on the bright side with any luck the prewedding stress weight loss will kick in with a this ;-)

    Sorry a few replied whilst I was writting my reply, we have gone for a bar where everyone pays a set amount £21 and they get unlimited drinks, may not have done this either as it seems people don't like to make a saving!!

    As for the TOG with any luck they will turn out ok in a less formal setting.

    I too am having tog wobbles (probably as I don't have a dress to wobble about yet).

    He is an amazing photographer, with loads of awards and his pictures are stunning, but, I have seen so many vintage style pics recently and fallen in love with that style. OH would kill me if I wanted to change though as the deposit was rather large!

    I wish we would have had someone video the speeches. We have a part film of the best mans, but none of my dad's or my hubby's. And they were all soooooooo funny.

    Also wish we would have collected a few of the decorative items we took up and put them in our room, as we left a few things at the hotel and they are in complete denial about where they are (in other words they have been binned).
