Wedding day mishaps and advice

Janae, on October 24, 2021 at 11:06 PM Posted in Planning 0 3
Hello brides, had my wedding day. Lots of unfortunate mishaps. Mainly things I noticed and then things guest told me about. I got very sick two days before so the last minute things I needed to do didn't get done. Day of wedding our beautiful welcome sign broke(wait last min to put out glass signs). Cake stand broke. Roses were supposed to be pink, and cream. Instead looked pink, and yellow, still were beautiful but not my color scheme. (Be very specific in what you want)


Wasn't able to do first dance how we wanted because no one could bustle my dress(make sure someone practices bustling your dress). I had video on how to do it but they couldn't find my phone.
Didn't have thank you speeches on me so we had to wing it, not a good idea. (Any speeches make copies and give to coordinator). I had planned do that but getting sick really threw things off for me. I still was not 100% day of wedding. Lots of things slipped my mind.

    Things that went well. Makeup and hair came out amazing. Guest all seemed to have a great time. Venue and decor were beautiful. Great weather.

    Congrats Mary!! I'm glad that things still went well, you had great weather, and your guests had a wonderful time!

    There are just way too many wedding details and moving parts for any wedding to go off with any mishaps!! For my sister's wedding we forgot so many day-of details, forgot her second hair piece, I'm still not sure I nailed her bustle, the guests couldn't really hear my dad's song, and they lost a few décor items on clean-up!

    For my wedding there was a hurricane! We had to move all the pictures inside, my band cancelled so we had to find a last-minute DJ, my gold cake was leaning to one side and looked more brown than gold, and we forgot to move clothes to the honeymoon suite!! Smiley xd

    Lots of details always go wrong, but over time you'll laugh or forget about them and just remember the best parts of your wedding day! 🥰

    You are so right, it's just still fresh in my mind. N I hope to help other brides so they can try to prevent certain things. So if anyone has questions. Let me know.
