Chris and I saw eachother before and I am sooo glad that we did. that's another story though
Anyhow, I kept my train bustled for all of the pre-wedding photos, and then let it down for the ceremony. IIRC, I bustled it again right after the ceremony and kept it that way until the bustle broke while I was crazy dancing later on in the night. I had a long veil also. It was beautiful but an absolute pain because the organza trim on it kept getting caught on stuff. After the ceremony we were doing photos on the beach near the waterline and it got wet. I took it off right there and did not put it back on.
