One of the hardest parts of my actual wedding day was being appreciative of all the hard work and nice things my family and friends were doing for me.  It’s your day right?  The one day you have been planning all your life.  And of course you do deserve to have it be a perfect day for you, well kind of.  I can’t think of a family that wouldn’t want to give their bride a perfect day, but I also can’t think of a family that could actually pull it off!  My mom was amazing and spent countless hours of time making my cake and flowers.  And while I love my bouquet and the time my mom spent on it, it looked nothing like the one in Martha Stewart that I showed her.  The cake while beautiful, soon had smear marks in it from where my new nieces and nephews sampled the frosting for me.   My hair, done by friend of my mom, wasn’t exactly like I dreamed.  I wanted big barrel curls piled on top of my head and at one point she said, “My grandma always had me do her hair like this.”  And when she was done I kinda felt like I looked like her grandma.  And while it might not have been what I really wanted, I remember thinking it was so nice of her to get up at six in the morning and do my hair.  I even remember being slightly annoyed that my husband felt sick–like he could help that?  Looking back on my wedding day,  I feel great love for the work my family did for me.  I’d rather have the bouquet my mom made me than an expensive one from the store.  It means more.  I look back at the little things I said or thought that were critical and I feel great remorse for any feelings I might have hurt.  Weddings are a celebration of two families coming together.  And that is beautiful.  I would highly suggest trying not to be a Bridezella, but  if you are going to be a Bridezella at least take some awesome photos.  I love the ones down bellow. brought to you by blue light bride a bridal blog for every utah wedding
