4~11~09 Rick & Deanna.

[Mrs.Goff]

Wait I think I missed something. haha Was it on there during the ceremony? I thought she just did it as a joke in the back.

Either way it's still funny.

[Deanna2112001]

SO i recieved some more pics from my photog. I managed to upload them from my email to my photobucket. And every time I try to copy the link into onewed.. Its a different pic. One that I have already placed on here..

GRRRRRRRRRRRR this is a pita!!!

[Deanna2112001]

I even tried to do a slide show so you can just see the new pics. And it makes it to where you can view my entire album. 224 pictures.. Rolls eyes.. I dont want that either.. dang it

[Deanna2112001]

This is Aaron on my left and Clayton on my right. Clayton has Autism, and it was very tricky to get him to hold the kiss. So I kept saying.. cheese.. cheese.. cheese.. lol.. and this is what came out.. LOL.. I thought my mouth was going to fall off after smiling so much that day!

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p261/Deanna2112002/DSC_53261.jpg
I really like my bouquet in this pic. Looks real huh? lol


Now I have to wait with you guys.. :o

[f77g4]

Awww I love the pics of you and the boys - it's so sweet!

And yes your flowers look real. I wish I could find fake flowers around here that look so real!!

You looked amazing!

[Deanna2112001]

Thank you Ashley! You guys are so sweet. I am glad its over with tho. Now I get to watch and comment on all the onewed weddings. I noticed when I was planning.. I didn't have time for anything. I mean with 3 kids, work, and planning, it was tough.

I will say one thing. I regret not having my 3 yr old there. The pictures would of been Awesome!

[Mrs.Goff]

Aww, you're pictures are great.

[Deanna2112001]

yes you do Rock that name. lol

I need to get my butt in gear. I have only seen a few pics from your wedding.

[Mrs.Goff]

Must of my pictures are disappointing. The most disappointing part is that we have none of the typical bride groom shots, and I have NO bridal shots. :( But that's what I get for excepting our pictures as a gift from a friend. Sad thing is I've seen the pictures from the other weddings she's done and they were fantastic! Why she messed mine up I'll never know.:irked:

Oh and the attack of the bra strap! LOLOLOL I HAD clear straps and on the day they got misplaced so I had to use the white ones. Well, some how my right strap fell and I was SO nervous I never noticed. You can see it in EVERY picture of the ceremony!:irked: Funny thing is when someone(?) fixed it, it stayed in place the rest of the night. hahaha

Pictures or not I had the best day ever and I'm loving being married.

[Deanna2112001]

My story is not really exciting at all. I mean actually its sort of sad.. lol.. But in the end.. at the reception it picked up. And I seem to had forgotten all about my issues. Thank God my photog was good. She made it look great!

[Mrs.Goff]

Oh I hate to hear that it was sort of sad. Was it kind of like my day, nothing really happened exactly like it was suppose to?

[MrsDM]

Aw...that pic of the three of you is so cute!!

So can I ask, I might have missed this in a previous post, why didn't you have your 3 year old there?

[Deanna2112001]

It was a tough decision and I wanted to back out of it and take him but Rick reminded me that when I am in the same room as Landen. He wants to be right there in my arms or near me. There would of been no way I would be able to stand at the alter without him crying and yelling in the background.

because I was able to be a stay at home mom for the first 2 years of him life. He and I have becamse very close. Probably more close than needed I tend to baby him since birth because I am not having anymore. Plus I missed out on so much with Aaron when he was that little. I worked 7 days a week and had two jobs.

This time around I wanted to simply enjoy it. And I have, but I also created a monster.. lol.

[PGDesigns]

That is such a great picture of you, Aaron, and Clayton.

We had a similar problem with one of our FG. She is DH's niece. Her dad was supposed to be at the venue early for pictures, and after he got there, DH's family called and said FG would not take a bath for anyone but her daddy. Apparently, she pitched one heck of a fit, and because her dad had to go back across town and give her a bath, a lot of the pictures for the wedding party were delayed. We were so rushed after the ceremony, that we missed out on some pictures.

Fortunately, during the ceremony and reception, FG was a perfect angel (she is a GREAT kid, jut very attached to her daddy lol) and she stood next to my BM with no problems.

[MrsDM]

Even though I don't have children, I do understand where you were coming from when you made the decision not to have him there. Kids are so unpredictable, especially at that age!

[PGDesigns]

I completely forgot to add in my last post that while everything ended up working out with our FG, it was really iffy there at the last minute. Kids are so unpredictable, and even the most well-behaved child can have their moments. I understand not having small children there, especially as the bride because you are so busy otherwise!

I love these pics!

[Angel1na3]

OH MY GOSH! You look soooooo Beautiful Deanna! I havent been on here in forever again and I wanted to come by and see your pics and hear all about your day. Amazing!!!! I want details hunny! XOXO

[Angel1na3]

I picked up my dress. I almost cried on the way home. I think its setting in that I am getting married in 2 days. While I was there the seamstress who used to be a nurse, confirmed my predictions of the "flu" And said to take a shot of brandi over the rocks. And take and boil some water and breath it in. 3 times a day to break it up.

Anyone hear of wiskey to break up your congested chest? I have a bottle of Jack in the Frig. Will that work?

Oh goodness I wish I saw this sooner! YES it works wonders! You can even make a hot totti out of it which works great too. Make Tea and put honey, whiskey or brandi in it also and a squeeze of lemon and drink up love! The next day you feel a million times better. For future reference.

[Deanna2112001]

OH MY GOSH! You look soooooo Beautiful Deanna! I havent been on here in forever again and I wanted to come by and see your pics and hear all about your day. Amazing!!!! I want details hunny! XOXO

Thanks! Well I will have you know I was ill the week of the wedding.. ANd I al STILL congested!!!

I contacted my photog and she said she didnt have a chance to mail out the cd this weekend. But she would so it this week. Hopefully she mailed it today!

Anyways.. I hasve to say I am sick of spending money.. If that was ever possible!! Well it is.. We bought a couch( sectional) on Friday, right there was $750.00, I needed 2 new tires, front brakes, an alingment and to have my roaters turned.. so we dopped another $398.00. I went shopping for myself and spent about $160.00 on two things!

So now were in save mode.

I do want to redecorate the livingroom, now that we have a new couch... The place needs a make over lol..

But that will have to wait.

my photog put her ad on craigstlist.. ANd were part of her page.

http://columbus.craigslist.org/evs/1128746927.html.

[Angel1na3]

I checked out her add and thats just a tease lol! I cant wait to see the rest of the pictures!!!! Let me know when you get settled some and are feeling better so I can get your help on ideas that I have =) Im sure you are probably so sick of wedding planning by now lol. Thats awesome about the new couch!!!! I love decorating :innocent:

[Deanna2112001]

I think I am ok with wedding planning still. Im not sick of it yet. I am a lil sad mines over.. lol I still might get into wedding planning in my area. So what kinda idea's you got going on in that head of yours.

[Angel1na3]

Well... You know I want the Candle that I showed you =) Really I just need the vellum done cause I cant figure it out for the life of me. I can put it and the ribbon on the candle. And the aisle runner =) I cant freakin print the letters out that big to paint it. As you can see I SUCK with printers lol lol. Which is my main problem on doing anything myself lol lol. I want to do rose petals instead of bubbles, but I dont know what to put them in, so if you have any ideas that would be great also. I believe that's about it really. I have a bunch of stuff but everything i want to do on my own, I cant figure it out lol. You know im not crafty lol

[Deanna2112001]

I ended up doing my unity candle on thick paper from Kinko's They could not do a laser printing on velum. And it still turned out perfect. Have you bought your candle yet?

Aisle runner.. Have you bought that yet?

Petal tossers.. Again once you have a design that you want to use.. Its all a matter of printing it on the paper. I used my own printer and I used velum. But if I had to do it again.. I'd use the white paper from kinko's and have them print it with the laser printer. It just pops and looks great!

[Angel1na3]

As far as the aisle runner, I didnt get it because I wasnt sure if I needed anything special when it came to that or just one from michaels would do.

The candle, I didnt get that but just figured i could get that also at michaels.

So bacically, for the candle and the rose petal things, I need something designed and just bring it to a kinkos and have them print it for me? Do you know the exact paper they used or no?

It should let you view them. Let me know if it don't.

I am uploading the ceremony pics tonight.. Will post them soon!:o

[f77g4]

Great pictures - it works but you have to sign in so I just signed up.

Everything turned out so beautiful! Looks like everyone had an awesome time.

Were the roses in your centerpieces real? They look so fresh, vibrant and full! Beautiful.

And your cake - what a unique shape. I've never seen on like that.

I'm glad the table runners worked out for you - they look beautiful too.

Did that guy propose to your bridesmaid? There is a pic where he's on his knee and looks like he is talking.

Also, how was the candy buffet? I know Rick was concerned at one point at not having enough candy.

Again everything looks beautiful! Congrats again!

[alli816]

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p261/Deanna2112002/DSC_5534.jpg

I laugh when I see this pic!

[Deanna2112001]

Deanna, you're such a beautiful bride!!!! I can't wait to go home and look at all your pics!

That's great that you're doing the trash session!!! How exciting!! I can't wait to see how those turn out!

Thank you FFC. Yano some turned out and some didnt. The lighting was way off in the church but there was nothing I could do.

[Deanna2112001]

I do want to say this... I was in shock when I seen the lack of people on my side of the church.. so much in a shock that I actually forgot my bouquet!!!! Yeah.. wtf.. All I remember is.. sitting there.. and I hear them playing the wedding party music. I said to my brother.. omng.. already.. whats going on. So I put down my bouquet and walked out to see what the deal was. Thats when I sene the lack of ppl on my side.. Then I instantly said.. oh shoot Bruce.. fix my dress.. Before I knew it.. the show was on... And here I am 4 steps into the church without my BOUQUET!!!

So I tell one of the guest in the back to get it for me.. lol and he did.. he ran and gave it to me.. lol.. It was scary and funny at the same time.

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p261/Deanna2112002/DSC_5415.jpg

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p261/Deanna2112002/DSC_5416.jpg
Right here is where I panicked and asked one of the guest to go back and get my bouquet!!!!

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p261/Deanna2112002/DSC_5418.jpg
It was all I could do was laugh. I mean really at this point, WHAT can I do.. Just SMILE Deanna... Smile!!!

[f77g4]

Oh you poor thing! But I love your attitude about it!

The pics are gorgeous!

[Mrs.Goff]

Gosh, I would have panicked. haha Way to keep it together.

[FFC]

Thank you FFC. Yano some turned out and some didnt. The lighting was way off in the church but there was nothing I could do.

Our lighting was off for EVERYTHING. It really put a damper on our pictures. But even for that dozen or so perfect pictures, it's all worth it in the end :)

You handled the bouquet issue very well! That's great your guest ran to get it for you!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the pics! You know your photographer can use Photoshop and lighten them up and no one will even know ;) I can show you some of the contrasts that I got from my terrible pics to the lightened terrible pics if you want. (They actually turned out pretty great once they were lightened up!)

[Deanna2112001]

That would be great. I was up late last night with editing some of my pics. We have a corporate photoshop Dh got from work. Cost $2500.00 Great thing to have IF YOU HAVE A COMPUTER TO HOLD IT.. LOL.. Needs 4g of memory to even store the **** thing on. So with that said.. photobucket is working for me until I get a new pc.

Yeah sehow me some beore and after pics. I have not played with lighting yet.

Gotchya. I understand how that goes! My computer is from the mid 90's and is slower than sh**.

I'm going to find my pics and post a thread in the pics forum - I'll let you know when I have em up. I should be able to find the disc.... soon. I think I know where it is :bbeek: :D

[Deanna2112001]

So I am playing with the editing in photo bucket. And I managed to make a wrinkle go away.. Sort of..

Not to bad, I don't think.

[Mrs.Goff]

You done that with photobucket? I loved that picture before, now it looks so professional.

Glad to see you back. I thought you left us. :(

[FFC]

I didn't know you could modify that much detail in photobucket!

[Deanna2112001]

Yeah its boat season. I wont be able to get on here that much. With having 2 kids and working 6 days a week, any free time that I have I spend it with the kids or cleaning. Besides with working so much, I feel guilty when I am online. I dont get enough time with them at all. At least I feel that way. Sucks woring fulltime and having kids. You miss out on so much..

[f77g4]

Great job editing the pic!

[Docsgirl]

The un-edited pic was great, and the edited pic is fantastic! Great job!!

[alli816]

Wow, awesome job on the editing....your pic was gorgeous before but wow it popped even more after the editing.....

[Moon.Dust.]

love that pic!

[Deanna2112001]

I have so many pics to go through its crazy. I finally got my reception cd in today. I have to work tomorrow :( But I hope to get some uploaded onto my myspace by this week.

[Moon.Dust.]

I've spent a solid 3 days just SORTING!! And these aren't photographer pics! just the ones I could get from the guests.

I think I'm just going to print them all and stick 'em in a box. not really but woldn't that be so much easier??

[Deanna2112001]

I have not even gotten together to change my sigy pic! I have over 1200 pics to go through. And yes I want to print them all. Some I want through m pix. Others I just went to Walmart and did it at their kodak thingy. Just so I could show ppl SOMETHING to look at.. lol

Plus we are looking to moving into a house here in Nov. Things are just hetic right now, with work and kids, plus finding a place that fits my 3 boys in it.:o

[Moon.Dust.]

holy molly girl!
I'm still unwinding and catching up on jet lag!
