Default Re: AHR for Carly!! Wahoooooo!!

Thanks ladies! It was great. There were a few things that I wish I had remembered to do, or had worked out differently, but all in all, I think it was great!

The hardest thing I have ever done in my life was the intro part. It was like a nightmare. I swear it scared the shit out of me. I hate being center of attention and Matt loves it, so it was really hard. I cried like a baby. Most people thought i was crying cuz I was sentimental, but really it was cuz I was terrified. That probably sounds stupid, but I honestly think it was the hardest thing I ever had to do. And then go right into our first dance, I was a mess! But it is over and I (hopefully) never have to do that again!

The other bad part was that my Mom's laptop that was supposed to play the DVD slideshow into the projection screen would NOT play the dvd. We don't know why, cuz it worked before and after, but it just wouldn't do it there. So nobody got to see the slideshow that Melissa made for us. That's kinda dissappointing, so I was thinking of burning a few copies for our families and the people that would enjoy seeing it at least once.

Other then that, it was really pretty perfect. The restaurant (Chinese/Japanese place) looked great, the food was delicious. My favors were a hit! I don't have any photos yet, but I will post as soon as I get some.

Oh, I also realized the next day when we were opening cards that there were so many people out of the 280+ people that I missed talking to! I thought I was doing well making my rounds, but there were quite a few people that I didn't get to. So I feel like a jerk about that, especially cuz I really felt like I was making an effort the night of!

I was lucky enough to have 3 members of the forum at my reception: Jacqueline - whom most of you know was one of my bridesmaids, Danielle - dbld78 on here, and Kristy - my co-worker who's screen name is Trixilalas. Kristy isn't that active now, but I am sure she will be soon, since they are planning their wedding for next September.
