Marybeth's #WeddingWednesday

Today’s Wedding Wednesday features our bride Marybeth and her husband, Jon. Marybeth was one of our first brides!
Marybeth and Jon met through and on online dating site “we went through all of the communication steps and talked on the phone quite a bit before we had our first date in May. We knew we had something special right away.  It took us awhile to find each other, I was 26 and my husband was 25.  We both said that it was worth the wait!”
The couple was engaged in December of 2010 and planned their wedding for 2011. “.  I planned a Winter Wonderland theme and created a lot DIY elements from our wedding.  I made all of my bridesmaid’s bouquets, the table centerpieces, and a brooch bouquet for myself.  We were married on Friday, December 30, which is also my parent’s anniversary.” December is also the Grooms birthday!
Marybeth explained that she looked at the big box bridal salon “, but I couldn't find anything that I liked.  My mom saw an article in the Macomb Daily about a new Bridal Salon opening for plus sized women, Bombshell Bridal.  We went right away and I was actually able to try on lots of dresses and I found the ONE.”
Other details from the couple’s special day includes an 18 person bridal party, including the Groom’s niece and nephew being the ring bearer and flower girl. 
Music played an important role in Marybeth and Jon’s wedding, “Our church musicians played Ever the Same by Rob Thomas during our unity candle.  We walked into the reception to Nothing's Gonna Stop Us, we always sang Karaoke to that song and it was actually how my husband proposed.  I thought we were singing Karaoke, but when I looked at the screen it said Marybeth will you marry me?”

Marybeth and Jon are now a family with their 15 month old little boy, congratulations!

12 Things Brides Forget Before Their Wedding Day

BRING EXTRA SHOES! Those gorgeous heels you bought? Yeah, by the time the reception rolls around your feet will be killing you! Bring an extra pair of flats so you can keep dancing and socializing the night away. You’ll thank me later. Decide what to do with the gifts. This is often forgotten during the wedding planning process, but still pretty important thing to remember! Make sure you assign someone to pack up the gifts and tell them where to take them. Especially if you are leaving on your honeymoon that night! You don’t want to decide what to do with them after you have had a few glasses of champagne. ;) Assign someone responsible to take care of the marriage license! Your officiant will take two copies and one is your souvenir. (Yes, you will sign three of them.) Make sure you don’t ask your cousin who has had 4 possibly 6 drinks that night already.

Thas way, your girls can budget for the dress and not add on last minute stress! Happy bridesmaids = a happy bride :) Time: As I said above, time is very important, because bridesmaid dresses can take up to 6 months to arrive.
