It’s onerous to find educated individuals on this subject, however you sound like you understand what you’re talking about! Thanks

how about the Jewish stuff? did you wear a veil? do a Bedekin? yihud? etc.

I imagine that for our yihud we'll just bouncing for a few minutes saying "OMG, we're married!" over and over again before we realize "crap, we should shove some food in our faces while we still can" and then go rejoin the party.

also, when did you chose to take all the family photos that everyone takes? did you even do them? how did you feel about the timing?

We didn't actually do a single thing to incorporate kids Greta. We just love kids, and I'm really really good with kids, and we were ourselves, and they climbed in and out of my lap all day… as they do in real life. I'll have more stories and pictures later (when I get pictures), but I guess what I'm saying is if you like kids, and you act like yourself, you don't need to do anything. If that makes sense?

I love that picture of the kids with you! In a later post, you mention a four year old sitting in your lap. How'd you incorperate/include the kids? My family is a huge multi-generational family, and I want to be able to include them more then a kids table and a ring bearer and flower girl. What I would LOVE is for my sister, who is going to be my matron of honor, and also has a newborn, to be comfortable enough to hold the baby during the ceremony if needed.

Hi Meg,

Just back from 2 1/2 blissful weeks of my own, and I totally get having a hard time writing about your wedding. But what you have written already is filled with such insight, that I am really looking forward to hearing about it, from your perspective.

What I am wondering (and maybe its been asked, I skimmed through some, but not all comments) is, what really memorable, unique, wonderful things happened that could have never been planned?

107 comments!! Ack! forgive me if this has been asked before, but was there a moment in the day where you thought to yourself, "I never want to forget this. exact. moment. Remember it!"?

I look at that photo and read all the glitter in your words and it makes me so happy and excited. Well done both of you!

Well… I haven't read the other questions, but I want to know what your first thought on the morning of the big day was. You know… you wake up and think…???

Congratulations and welcome back, Meg!

With my wedding only about one month away, I'd like to give you a big Thank You for always being honest and helping me stay on target and remember why I'm marrying this man - how easy it is to forget the important stuff!

What I want to know is, how did the evening wind down? Did people naturally know it was time to go home? Or did the music/DJ/beer situation dictate it?

How did you remain present and in the moment? Sometimes during big events its easy to get swept up in all the details and stress…any advice on how you stayed centered and grounded?
