Since today is my anniversary and I am being nostalgic, tell me the best part of your wedding and what you would do different if you could do it all again.

Re: QOTD 10/11
Best Part - honestly, when everyone left and we still had an hour left... it was just me and H on the dance floor dancing to what I wish I changed our first dance song to - Hunter Hayes Wanted.
Change - not add the extra hour to the reception? haha Honestly, I love every part of it and wouldn't change any.
Happy anniversary Cathy!
Best Part - being married at the end of it all
Change - I would not have a wedding again, I would elope. I actually hated the whole wedding process, and I had imagined I would.
I'm grumpy today, sorry!
Best part - so much fun! People still talk about how awesome our DJ was and how wild our reception was.
Change - Not broke my toe a week before the wedding. Also I wish I would have taken the time to actually look around my venue. I remember planning my centerpieces, but I don't remember looking at them that day.
Best part-having everyone around us and being married at the end of the day to my love! Oh and the wedding night!!
Change-probably the worry I had all morning since it was raining and snapping when my family and bms had us running a few mins late. And I really wish I would have had a list of pics for my photographer to take.
Change - I would have planned the reception timeline a little better so that we didn't have to run around hunting for H when it was timefor the garter toss.
I'd change: my veil. It was all bunched up during the ceremony (thanks, dad! grrrr, lol!) and it was kind of an odd length, I didn't notice until I saw it in pics. I also HATED my smile during allllll my weddind pics, it was all gums.
Change- The florist wanted to put hydrangea in the bridesmaid bouquets as filler. We had mango calla lillies and circus roses. I imagined the hydrangea as blue or white, very summery and not the look I wanted. He took them out of the bridemaid bouquets but put them in the moms' bouquets, they just had red roses. They were greenish, reddish, brown hydrangea and it looked amazing! I was so mad I didn't listen to him.
1) Being married to H at the end of it all.
2) Our food was unreal. One of my friends told me she judges all other weddings she goes to against my food. Even my dad complemented us on it and he's a food snob.
Change:
1) I wish I could have taken more time tying up my dress. It had this weird crease in it from not being pulled tightly enough. No one noticed it but me.
