Wedding day

I've regretted that I went ahead with the wedding after all the signs of his awful difficult parents & his controlling restrictive ways to me which had started as gf & bf & has been over the yrs since. I regret having met him & his family & moved interstate to them. I regretted not having any financial say to stand my ground & have a horse & carriage or to at least have fancy wedding cars instead of his blue Camry , his Mums white ford, and a friends maroon Galant. I regret that we felt 'loyal' to our church premises to have the wedding there even tho not allowed to have confetti (this was back in 1993 when we *couldve * had confetti, at a different location) & from memory our reception place didn't allow it either. I regret not researching or pushing for a more 'magical' or 'romantic' special destination & that my love of castles & or the beach was not taken into account. I regret that husband was/is not the fun type & his mates didn't plan anything either, & he didn't want or allow us to have shaving cream decoration &/or tin cans etc rattling off the car as newlyweds after reception . Nor did we have a wedding dance cos my husband & his christian culture in Adelaide were so against it, but in my home state we wouldve had a much more fun & vibrant wedding (if I'd married a more 'appropriately matching to me & my personality, heritage, & values' fun guy who bothers to make celebrations special!) I also regret that we didn't stick to the plan of having our pics at the Botanical Gardens but allowed ourselves to be talked out of it due to so called 'logistical reasons' & instead just went to a nearby park that was nothing special, I regret that none of our pics have us kissing, most likely due to the conservatism at the time which our photographer was also part of. Oh and as for My side of the family, well we had lots of problems from there too with my parents dictating so much & the guest list & going ahead with inviting my ex-friend sexual harasser, & generally making things unpleasant & difficult, also I invited All my cousins cos that was the right & nice thing to do, but never got invited to Any of theirs! :/
Whatever you do, stick to your dreams & plans, make it happen how You want & are excited with, you seriously dont want to have to live with all this & oh so much more garbage associated to your Wedding day, a one -off & never-able-to-be-recaptured day!!
