The good: just about everything. I married my soulmate, I felt like a princess, and we had exactly the wedding we dreamed of.
The bad: my mom cracked a vertebrae in her back 2 weeks before our wedding day. We were really close to postponing because we didn't know if she would be able to travel (about 4 hours). She ended up being able to come (thank god for modern medicine) but it was pretty nerve wracking. And I was sad that she wasn't able to enjoy herself as much as normal.
A funny "bad": when I got to the altar, H took my hand and whispered into my ear "I can't do this" I whispered back, "excuse me?" and he said "I just know I can't get through this without crying". Dude, wrong way to put it - I almost had a heart attack!
The ugly: My BIL and his now ex-wife briefly reconciled and she came to the wedding, so now she's in all our pics. That's all I can think of.
The good: planning was OVER. I hated planning and found it stressful. The day was beautiful, The party was so much fun.
The bad: photographer. Also, my dad has passed away 7 months earlier, so that was just kind of hard in general, especially on my mom
The ugly: Nothing really. After the wedding there was drama w/my sister, but that happens frequently, and at least it was after the reception, and I knew nothing about it until later.
The Good: I had wonderful bridesmaids. The pastor gave a great message. Everything really turned out beautifully. The Bad: A fire alarm started going off because a door was left open at the church. DH's dad got it turned off, so that wasn't so bad. I also felt like I barely saw DH the entire reception. The Ugly: I had a bridezilla moment during pictures before the ceremony and swore in the church I was a leetle stressed, but my bridesmaids talked me down. DH's brothers (and groomsmen) left our reception early to go hang out with friends in another turn (I don't like to hold grudges, but I don't think I'll ever get over that.) My little sister got a little drunk and obnoxious at the bar, but then had a heart to heart with DH, so that wasn't all that bad either.
Good: Gorgeous weather, everything came together more cohesively than I'd hoped, food was great, photographer was great, location was beautiful. Almost everything was perfect. We still get compliments almost three years later, which makes me feel good because the majority of our wedding was DIY.
Bad: Our DJ was awful. Announced me by the wrong name, pronounced our last name wrong, played the wrong entrance songs, and one of his speakers blew an hour before the reception ended (all of this after we'd gone over everything several times, and he mentioned at least ten times that he never uses just his computer for music because "laptops are unreliable and can go down at any moment"). He was also in his seventies and refused to refund us any money.
Ugly: We had DH's Uncle in the wedding and were not aware he was racist until he was relentlessly rude and condescending to our Ukranian photographer. It was mortifying, and our group pictures were cut short because he would not stop no matter how much we told/asked him to. Also, at our reception, DH went over to my BIL, his new BIL, and said "Can you stop tapping on your water glass while we're trying to eat? You're being really annoying and I don't appreciate it." My Mom caught wind of this and promptly came over to yell at me in front of everyone. DH saying that was more awkward than anything; my Mom's response made it ugly. In defense of my DH, he's a really genuinely nice person 99% of the time, but his nerves were completely shot by the time we got to that part of the reception. And he apologized to/made up with BIL later in the evening.
