I guess it's time for a BAM!

Mikayla, on December 2, 2016 at 7:49 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 91

I had full intentions of writing out a very detailed BAM, but now that the time has come I really don't feel like it! So I'll keep it simple.

I worked SO hard to ensure everything went perfect, so of course, plenty went wrong! 3 days before the wedding, the dart the seamstress placed in the illusion top of my dress ripped out and I had to scramble to find a new seamstress who could fix it! It was terrifying but it am so thankful to the seamstress who fixed it on her day off!

Our flowers were not at all what we had discussed, which was more than disappointing.

My veil ripped 2 minutes before I was supposed to walk down the aisle and thankfully my friend had a paper clip and somehow made it work.

Our second shooter had a "glitch" with her camera so she left without taking a single photo.

I was furious to find our guests brought in alcohol. I'm so glad we paid thousands for an open beer/wine bar just for guests to bring their own.

    Despite all this, September 24, 2016 was hands down the best day of my life. It was perfect, beautiful, and nothing but pure happiness. I could not be more thankful for that day and for my amazing husband. I thought for sure when I went to walk down the aisle I'd be a ball of tears. But as soon as I saw him standing there, the most handsome thing I've ever seen, all my nerves faded away.

    Hang with me folks for pics, I'm on mobile! First pic is hangers I made for my bridesmaids.

    Our escort cards. My husband hand cut all the wine cork holders!
