Reliving things that went wrong

I really did enjoy my wedding and adore my new husband but I just can't help going back over things that didn't go as planned on my wedding day. My dress nearly caught on fire coming down the aisle, one of husband's cousins saved it from the candles, we forgot our cake topper, forgot my veil, the dance floor was sparse (photobooth got a lot of people off the dance floor) for most of the time, the dj made us do the cake feeding thing (so awkward) and lastly and most horribly, as I went to speak to the dj about something and he was setting up his equipment, he smashed his laptop completely cracking the screen making it unusable, he had to drive home to get his replacement, we had to delay speeches meaning there was a far too long gap between entree and main when speeches would've happened and I could see our guests getting fidgety. I felt so awful for the dj and partly responsible.

Anyway I just can't help but dwell on the negatives right now. I wish I could go back and fix them.

    Hi, here's mine. I don't have a cake cutting picture cause my husband walked away and I couldn't find him. We think he saw a relative leave and wanted to say bye cause he doesn't remember. Also, the dj didn't play my playlist and dared to play ymca

    I just got married and everything was beautiful I should be thankful for that! But dumb stuff like I painstakingly made these signs for each type of cupcakes (8 flavors) and they all got put out wrong. How…even the easy ones! That bugged. Not even sure we got a pic of the whole dessert counter and that was my favorite setup! Didn’t get a pic of just my groom and his bestman, got groups though. Some of the pic combos we definitely missed the ball on. I planned October for a fall colored wedding and with the warm weather the trees were still green! Can’t control it but why if all years!? I also felt like I hardly was on the dance floor and kept getting pulled in 20 directions, time went so fast!!! I’m trying to remind myself of the blessings like everyone getting there safely to and from. But there’s always something!!! Felt like I had to remember every detail and no one else was really helping on that front, except my sweet groom. It was crazy and fast but it was a dream! The outdoor ceremony was beautiful so I can’t complain!
