I coordinated and planned the whole thing. I had both a catholic mass (for our ceremony) and reception. I’ve been married for almost 5 months and I can finally (with a CLEAR mind) think of all the things I wanted to do but never got to. Is it just me but did your mind just disappear the day before and the day of?
My cousins were my bridesmaids from out of town and I wished I took more pictures with them... things like this. I made so many to do lists and thought I had everything covered but didn’t. I think for future brides, i would encourage them to do an exercise- one: don’t be in plan mode but imagine...almost pretend to be childlike - what are things you wish you could do the day of? I think once you tap into that creativity, write a to do list that day and then months later, get into it and incorporate it into your schedule.
With my bridesmaids, we took group and individual ones at the church but I wish we took more at the reception because it’s such a different vibe. No wedding is perfect and I do notice that not man brides have their wedding party take pictures at the reception, so it’s all good...kinda 😉
