September 1st 2006 wedding

Anyone else get married this weekend???? We were married on a Friday night on the water at suset on Lake Ronkonkoma in Long Island, but hurricane Ernesto was coming through! We made it through our ceramony and our pictures, and then it poured buckets of rain untill Sunday morning! We met a bunch of couples who were unfortunate to get married on Saturday, anyone else out there who got married that weekend???

Re: September 1st 2006 wedding

  • Yes, I got married on Sat. 9/2.  I contemplated a winter wedding but knew w/ourluck that we would have a blizzard.  Luckily, I planned for rain and everything was indoors....catastrophe averted.  Our reception was held at an old victorian mansion w/a beautiful porch so we still got to take pictures outside (sort of).  The lighting was perfect even though the rain didn't cooperate.  I actually find it funny.  When we started dating, my husband was sent to FL for assistance with the hurricane clean up, I bought an apt and moved in a snow storm, we moved in together and it was pouring rain, we got engaged and almost got stuck in a big snowstorm, then our wedding Tropical Storm Ernesto crashed, then we bought a house and it poured (the truck leaked..they had to take all of our stuff out and postpone the move).  I can't imagine what will happen if we ever have children...there will probably be a volcano eruption in NY or something crazy like that
  • Where did you get married (town) and where are you guys from??? Just remember, and I didn't want to even think about it on my wedding day, rain is supposed to be good luck!!!
  • We were married on 9/2/06 on a mountain in PA.  It was extremely foggy and our outdoor ceremony that was to take place on a golf course in front of a gazebo had to instead take place on the dancefloor with everyone sitting at their tables :(  It was alright though and everyone had a good time.  DH and I were getting fed up though and wanted to punch the next person who told us that the rain was good luck.  We heard it about 100 times! 

  • My hubby and I were married 09-02-06.  I still feel like we are newlyweds :)  It went really quick with a few last minute scares.  First his air force uniform was left behind at one of connecting flights...I guess they just forgot to load on the plane...lucky for us it came in later that evening...but it was the day before our wedding so we were cutting it close.  His bachelor party was also the night before our 10am wedding.  I tried not to mind since he lived out of state and wasn't able to come back and visit too often.  Though our day went on w/o any major problems :)
  • Another 9/2/06 bride here.  We had 2 weather problems... Ernesto was definitely the big one.  The second was a huge flood in my town in June 06... the facility I wanted to take outdoor pictures at was still under a layer of muck and ew, so that was out!  But it was still a great time, and surprisingly it stopped raining every time we needed to go outside!

    Anyone else miss planning for a wedding?  Yes, I know it was a year and a half ago ;)  I think I'm meant to be a wedding planner.

    Married to my sweetheart since 9/06, TTC since 9/06 also!
    Switched to Adoption, 3/12
    Home study approved 6/12
    Ready and waiting for our baby or babies! :)

  • Our wedding ceremony took place in Rockland Co. New York & the reception was in Orange Co.  We recently bought a house in Orange Co.  

    I can't believe it has been over a year and half.  I do miss wedding planning although my husband doesn't.   I would love to put my dress on again even if it was to vaccum the house ;)   
  • My husband and I were married Saturday 9/2/06 in Cohasset, MA. I can remember watching the weather channel for hours on end, especially the night before the wedding took place. The rain was to hold off until that Sunday.

    As I awoke the morning of our wedding the skies were a bit grey but no rain. As I rode in the antique car along the water with my father on the way to the church the sun actually peaked through the clouds for that small amount of time. After the church we had a few drops during the receiving line and that was it!!! The wind was the only thing that I could have done without, the sun peaked through once more for some final pictures just before the reception as well.

    The pictures came out great, no squinting!!!

  • I'm another 9/02/06 bride; I can't belive it has been almost 2 years!

    Our wedding took place in Great Falls, MT and the only things we had to really worry about were extreme heat or smoke from fires. Luckily, the temperature only reach 85 and the winds didn't blow in any smoke. The reception was a blast. It was so nice to have all our family and friends there to celebrate with.

    The honeymoon in Edmonton, AB on the other hand turned into a disaster when our car was broken into. We had 3 really nice days and nights there and were off to another day or activities when we found our window smashed in. As soon as I saw what happened I burst into tears. Luckily insurance covered all the damages, but it left a sour taste in our mouths.

    In the two years we have been married we have sold a house, moved back to Montana from Washington, and now are about to build a new home. We should move in by December. Kids are still a few years off because we want to make sure we have everything lined up. We are extremely happy right now.
