So my day started of great , then cake baker text and said couldn't find my pics of cake how i wanted it but got that solved. My MOH went to pick up my flower petals from flower shop i ordered 6 big bags of petals she called me and asked me how many was i suppose to have i said 6 she came to my house the flower shop gave her 2 small ones said that it would be enough for flower girl basket that i didnt need anymore! Well they werent for that had she written down everything shed have seen i wanted it for the isle to line whole inside of chairs along the isles on both sides! So i let it go didnt let it get to me and then got my hair and makeup done it came out beautiful compared to my trial...rest of day went good except i forgot my husbands ring thankfully my MOH sent mt daughter into reception wheremy bag was and had her grab it quick. They were on it without me knowing till afterward lol...my husband cried seeing me and i loved it made him cry with my vows which was what i was going for but ended up making myself cry in the process lol.. our photographer was AMAZING!! She was great with our kids and us and everyone...she even helpedthe girls bustle my dress not once but twice lol the train did not want to stay up last night at all lol...then it came to cake cutting and we did great but once they passed out the cake my sister comes to me and says this cake taste like cherry! I said its not suppose to be cherry the frosting is suppose to be raspberry with lemon cake!!!i hate cherrys ...so i brushed it off even though i was so upset at this point bc that was the one part i was really looking forward to at the reception was that part of the cake. So then we lost out on probably a good 400 plus in people who didnt show that we could have saved and could have really used. But over all we had fun and our kids had a blast they passed out well one in car on way home and other as soon as wr got home and in his pjs lol...loved my hair but oh my my hair had so many bobby pins it took me half hour to get them out literally !
