Wedding

I did this once already but myspace bulletins don't last very long so I decided to do it again. 

What month & year were you married?
July 2007

How did he ask you?
Doug  (on one of our many late night calls while I was in London) asked me to have something nice to change 
into because he wanted to stop by the temple after the airport and had something to ask me. 
He asked me on this little bench (which they have now removed :'( ) and he didn't kneel down which was
amazing because whenever I daydreamed about being proposed to, the daydream guy never kneeled. 

Where did you honeymoon?
Geneva, Idaho

Can you still fit in your dress?
Not right now. Losing baby weight. I did so good until those last two months of being peggers

What was the worst gift you got?
None really. 

What flavor was your wedding cake?
Lemon with raspberry filling. I think I shocked everyone by not picking chocolate

Were you a bridezilla?
Yes but only the day before. You would be too if you were me and went through what I did

What's one thing you would change about your wedding?
Honestly? I would have not wanted certain people there

Do you still look at your wedding pics?
Yes

What colors did you use?
Rose and Grey

Where did you tie the knot?
Maryland

Whats one funny thing that happened that day?
Doug and I exchanged rings without anyone noticing. 

How many showers did you have?
1

Did you cry?
Right after I got dressed and my mom, my sister and I were looking in the mirror in the brides room.
And I teared up a bit during the ceremony

Did you give any wedding favors away?
Hershey kiss roses 

Who caught the flowers and garter?
Sister Large caught the flowers and we decided against throwing the garter

Who was your officiant or minister?
Brother Peake? 

How much was your wedding dress, undergarments and all?
Around $200

A bit

Where was the reception?
Gloucester Ward 

Would you go back and do it over again?
Yes

How long did you have to plan your wedding?
Since early Sep 2006

What kind of car were you in when you drove away?
Doug's old CRX. I miss that car. It was fun to drive

How many in your wedding party?
I had 4 bridesmaids and Doug had 1 groomsmen. The other two guys couldn't make it because of military duties

Did you do anything different in your wedding or reception?
I was married in the temple which is different to some and we didn't throw the garter

Did you save the top layer of your cake for your 1 year anniversary?
Our cake lady made us an extra layer to keep, so we didn't save the top layer.
 But it did taste pretty good a year later

What was the grand total spent on your wedding?
I'm not sure. Around a $1000?

Who traveled the farthest to attend your wedding?
My grandpa came from CA

Do you regret having anyone in your bridal party?
Not at all.

Sometime I'm curious to know what you went through on your wedding day and prior. I've gathered here and there that there was some drama. Maybe this is twisted, but it makes me feel better to know I'm not the only one with drama surrounding my wedding.

And yes, you did shock us all by not choosing chocolate for your cake!
