Kind of wierd...

So we're on our way out the door to a friend's wedding, the first we've been to since our own. I feel super nervous and have butterflies in my stomach, I think it's more for the bride because I know how she is feeling right now, but is this super wierd? Anyone else been to another wedding since your big day? I'm sure we'll have fun, just feels odd :) Hope all is well with everyone!

Re: Kind of wierd...

  • Well we haven't been to a wedding per say but to a a faux wedding as I like to call it. The couple was already married and just having a wedding for whatever reason. So I think in that sense it didn't really effect me. However whenever I watch a wedding show now, yes I still watch them, I get sooo nervous for the bride right before she is going to walk down the aisle, because I remember exactly how I was feeling at that moment.

    Hope you had a good time!
  • When we went to a wedding after ours, we noticed all the details! DH and I were talking throghout the entire event about all of the details and we appreciated it all :0)
  • You're right MrsGarcia I notice more of the details and appreciate all the work that went into them.  As I help my cousins plan their weddings I know exactly what they're talking about with the colors, centerpieces, favors, save-the-dates and all the little details.  I told them to write all their ideas down and when we go look at them they can see if they are viable or not.  I really do appreciate all the hard work that go into making a wedding happen for I know about being on that side of things.  I will definitely be feeling flutters when my cousins get married next year.  I am so excited for them!!! :)

  • Nope. But I went to a wedding last night for a friend, which was at the SAME venue as mine. I found myself making stupid comparisons all night long. Hers was a GREAT wedding and it was super fun to be back there with my husband!
  • I went to a friend's wedding a few weeks ago.  I totally understand what you are talking about.  I got so nervous and excited for her.  I also noticed all the details. 
  • I went to a wedding just last weekend!  I saw the bride a few weeks ago, and gave her an "emergency kit" I had some stuff from my own, plus I made up baskets for each of the bathrooms at our wedding, so I figured she should benefit from a little of our hard work!  She hadn't even thought of it, so I was so glad I did it!!

    Plus, I told her at her shower...to please call me if she needed help...and I ASSURED her, that I was so not just saying it to be nice.  I told her...a lot of people say they want to help...but they want to help when it's convenient for them...not necessarily when you actually NEED help!!!  So I told her that no matter what, I'd make time for her.  She wound up only asking me to stick around at the ceremony and collect her unity candle, memory candle, and any leftover programs, but I was SO HAPPY to be able to do even that, knowing how many things do weigh on your mind.

    DH on the other hand...spent the entire day saying..."our (fill in the blank) was better!" ;-)

  • hehehe, my hubby did the exact same thing, our everything was better in his head!  :) It went well though, we had a great time!
