Friends and I were talking about weddings tonight while watching Shedding for the Wedding... So.. what is your dream wedding and for the married people you can join in and let us know if you had your dream wedding or want a redo lol.

I would definitely have a redo :) I want a wedding in the mountains and a very romantic/rustic feel with fall colors and an enormous train oh and must have a full bar LMAO

Thoughts?

    haha our wedding was nice. I loved where our reception was (Eberly Farm--since you're from Wichita I'm guessing you'll know it).

    I wouldn't really re-do it, but I'd change one or two things. Skip on choosing one of the bridesmaids...probably pick a different dress. I really liked mine-it was gorgeous, but I wish I would have picked a different style but at the time I was too self-conscious and now even though I'm pretty much the same size I just have more appreciation for how I'm shaped. I've got the hour-glass going on but at the time I just saw hips.

    There are a few other things...but I can't say I re-do the whole thing maybe have put a little more "us" in it. Overall not completely my dream but not not either if that makes sense lol

    O well...lol Maybe in 10 years we'll do a renewal somewhere beachy and exotic-ly gorgeous! Then I'd be in heaven :D

    Yep, definitely want a re-do.

    I got stuck in another city for 3 days before the wedding--almost missed my own wedding (flight cancellations). No last fitting of my dress, so it was entirely too long (by a foot!). A lot of things were crazy.

    But the main thing that we didn't have was pictures. So we always tease that we'll do wedding pics on our next anniversary. ;)

    However, I did marry the man of my dreams. ;) And that's what counts right?

    Can we qualify this and get a wedding w/o the marriage?

    I'm kinda' in the same boat and Belle.

    Belle - think the dudes would go for that?

    lol. we talked about it once. his response was "i dont want any regrets". so i backed off and decided to focus on our relationship. because if he fears he will have regrets after 6 years and 2 kids...then there are some issues that need fixed.
  • My dream has always been to get married in the Jacksonville Jaguars stadium...and yes, my wedding colors would be teal and gold. Lately though I've been fancying the idea of a winter wedding. Granted, I hate winter and all forms of precipitation that come along with it, but there's just something so elegant about a winter wedding. I'm of course going to have to find a groom first. I hear he's a pretty crucial part of the nuptial festivities.

    I married my best friend! That alone made it my dream wedding :)

    We eloped with a few friends present, and I would have loved to have my family there. But it was still a cute ceremony, on the beach in Hawaii. And man... we saved a ton of money. In hindsight I wouldn't change a thing!

    Wow, and I thought my wedding has problems! The runner wouldn't stay down it was too windy, we had reserved an area in the park overlooking the lake and some people disregarded the sign and started grilling an hour before the wedding - my fil chased them off but we couldn't cover them like planned because they were hot. Oh and my pictures are awful - only two good pictures, never let a family friend that does "photography" do your pictures.

    I loved my wedding and it was simple. In the end the show was for everyone else, I only wanted to be married to my fireman. we will celebrate 2 years this June and my only goal is for him to have a hotter healthier wife and maybe we'll start planning for our family. (He promised by Christmas and as early as August, so if 2012 comes and we haven't started trying i can't promise that I won't start putting holes in his condoms...)

    BUT I would love a re do for my brother and his wife, since his whole bridal party, including yours truly, got pretty trashed....

    Good luck on the groom! I wouldn't mind be married on a baseball field @ home plate

    Im a GINORMOUS Chicago White Sox fan. SO, I would get married (again) at Comisky Park (US Cellular Field) with everyone that I have ever known there (not open to the public).... I would have Christina Aguilera sing the National Anthem (because that poor girl needs a redo).. 3 jets then fly overhead. THEN we get married... THEN the Sox play just for us.. they would play the Yankees because A-ROD is dreamy...after, we all have sushi and seafood on the field!
    You said "dream" wedding right?

    My ideas change with my mood.

    I love antique victorian - so something rustic, simple and elegent in the early spring would be lovely.
    I've also been to a number of themed weddings where the bride & groom & family did all the decorating & planning. They came out great.

    But if I were to get married right now, I'd want to do it while having sex. Seriously. What better way to express your deep held love and committment to your life mate than during the most intimate of moments, with nothing to hide behind as you say your vows and I do's and looking into each others eyes; nothing to guard you from each other. Skin to skin, heart to heart, soul to soul. It seems to me that it would be the ultimate expression of trust, dedication and passion all wrapped up in those few minutes of vows. I'm not saying be lewd and make a porn out of it... I mean if you're giving yourself heart, mind, body and soul to someone - is there any other better way or time to really and truly do that?

    I doubt it.

    Dream wedding would be to have enough money to actually afford to have a wedding where ALL our family could attend. My flowers would be gerber daisies (oranges and blues would be my colors). We would get married on the beach at sunset. I want steel drums and tiki torches. It would be the simplest of weddings but it would be most perfect. I would want the reception to be filled with an abundance of friends and family (oh and some yummy seafood). I've never dreamt of anything big...just of great memories

    But our wedding is still going to be perfect because we are finally doing it ♥♥ Even though family won't be here, we are going to visit everyone after the fact to celebrate. Things are still up in the air as to when we are doing all this because he's deployed right now and well....trying to schedule things when you have no idea when he'll be home is tough lol.

    I'm most excited about the Honeymoon!! Bahamas here we come!
