Well, we are married!

Jennifer, on September 25, 2019 at 16:06 Posted in Just married 0 17

The day was... interesting.

We forgot the marriage license at the hotel.
My husband wore the wrong tie, which of course was the FIRST thing out of my mouth at our first look for some unknown reason :/
The DJ played the wrong song for our first dance.
My husband got stabbed with his boutonniere and bled EVERYWHERE (thank god for TIDE pens).
Oh. And my MOH and her family of 5 left at dinner due to some perceived slight from the night before, without saying a WORD to me. I went looking for her and someone let me know that they saw her packing her things and that she had left to drive back home. After 4 days, I messaged her to ask what the hell was going on, and apparently because I made a smart ass comment about her and her friends love of the musician Drake the night before the wedding in a joking way with a bunch of our friends, she decided that I was being disrespectful and unappreciative (nevermind inviting her whole family and making sure they had specially made meals due to dietary/religious restrictions) and that the proper course of action was to just LEAVE MY WEDDING. And then she had the nerve to tell me she has never disrespected me before like I did to her that night (and yes, I clarified. It was literally all due to the comment about a musician she apparently "doesn't even like" anymore). Can you tell I'm bitter? So needless to say, that was the shortest friendship breakup after a wedding in history.


BUT. We are married. Other than the MIA MOH there was no drama, someone made a mad dash to the hotel to get the license, and aside from some awkward laughing between myself and my husband about what dumb asses we are, the marriage was official pretty quick. We had an amazing night. We danced until our feet were ready to fall off, and then headed back to our hotel to continue the party until we finally gave up and went to bed. And it was amazing. Don't let the little (or the big) things get to you fellow WW couples. In the end, it will all go exactly as it is supposed to, and it will be magical.

    I heard a great tip from someone that involved using magnets instead of pins for the boutonnieres to avoid the pin drama that you experienced lol. I think a friend did that at their wedding and I thought it was brilliant.

    I am so sorry that your MOH did that!! I am shocked and well she made it about her even on your day. I am happy you guys still enjoyed your night ! Things happen and honestly if it wasn't for our pastor texting me prior to the rehearsal saying don't forget the licence! I wouldn't have remembered

    That's an unfortunate turn of events about your friend. Everything else turned out and makes for good storytelling for years to come.

    Congratulations on your beautiful wedding!! Looks like no hiccups at all from the proof of photography.

    All the best to you and your husband!!

    Despite everything, I'm glad your wedding was a success and you have some stunning photos to show for it!

    It amazes me how some people's true colours show through during weddings, glad you enjoyed the rest of the night despite your MOH's actions.

    I don't think there is anything you could say about Drake that would make me leave a wedding in a huff. Hopefully he will forgive you when he hears about your joke 😂 I'm glad the rest went smoothly. The pictures look amazing.

    Congrats! Beautiful pictures and a beautiful day. Despite of all things going wrong and the up and leaving guests, you sure enjoyed yourselves.
    Some people can't handle some comments in a funny matter. She sure showed her true colours now than before and said her piece.
