It Was Cold... But We Did It! (non-pro pics)

Megan, on October 13, 2019 at 11:03 PM Posted in Married Life 0 28
Well... I'm a Mrs. Now! The weather looked gorgeous but it was FREEZING! And to all upcoming brides, I just have one bit of advice. Roll with the punches. What could go wrong for us... did. But it just made our day all the more special.

1. During the rehearsal, we told our set up team to go with Plan B, because the field area we were originally thinking was a wet, muddy mess. So we decided to use the pavillion. It was cozy and had a nice fireplace (perfect for our 46° weather at our outdoor wedding). Not what we originally imagined but still beautiful.
2. My hair wasnt long enough to do the style I originally wanted but my stylist is a CHAMP and rocked one that was super similar. I only had myself to blame since I didnt do a trial but it made it all the more memorable.
3. There was a detour to get to the reception hall (which is also where we got dressed). The town had a festival, so we had to go around.
4. We spilled the mimosas. 🤣
5. I tripped on the railroad tracks during pictures, post ceremony.
6. My husbands dad left before the family pictures, so we had to leave and catch him at the reception hall.
7. We got to the reception 30 minutes early, so we had to hide in the bridal dressing rooms (which was good because we relaxed).
8. My son (who is one) refused to dance during the parent/child dance... which I planned to include him. He wanted to dance by the DJ booth, alone.
9. I cut my husband's hand with the knife during the cake cutting. 🤦‍♀️
10. 1/3 of our RSVPd guests didnt show, without warning.

Despite all those things, i would do them all again to be Mrs. Megan Rumbach. ❤

    Thank you. I almost had my moments but I reminded myself that my husband was the only thing I needed. The rest was extra, so why worry? Smiley smile It will all be great. Just remember to laugh as things come up. They will seem big in the moment, but you cant be mad if you laugh about it.

    Thanks. I honestly had no input on my flowers. I told my MIL fall and she nailed it. Smiley smile

    Thank you. My MIL took care of all the decorations (I got final say but she planned it all), and she actually suggested I try my dress. I didnt like it on the rack, but once I got it on... wonderful!
