Am I being selfish for wanting another wedding?



My wedding day was a disaster. Just about everything that could go wrong, did. MIL was being a pain in the you know what. The photographer was two hours late. My cakes were melting because the facility did not turn on the ac in time. The facility was dirty (sticky floors, bathrooms not clean) nor did they set the reception up like I asked. My guests left early because of a late start in the wedding (because of problems beyond my control). Some guests got lost on their way. There was a problem with the facility that escalated into a shouting and cursing match between me and the overseer of the facility. My dj had to set up on the floor. My husband forgot to take the tags off of my rings. The tablecloths were not long enough for the tables (two tablecloths barely covered the tops of the tables. And that is just the half of it. Wedding dress didn't fit (the straps were too long). Now tell me, am I being unreasonable or selfish because I want the wedding of my dreams?

Those days are always like that.. even if they dont seem like it to an outsider! UGH!

This is what I would do.. (am actually trying to learn to do it due to my own dismal wedding..)

Learn to laugh about it, then reward yourself and your hubby with a second honeymoon on your anniversay.. somewhere wonderful.. and if you hapen to find a local person to do so, renew your vows right there in paradise! Just the 2 of you!
I would have another wedding with my closest family and friends. You should definately hire someone that will for sure make sure no mistakes are made.
You've had a wedding that people attended. If you want another ceremony that's one thing, but to put out money for another wedding and expecting people to come....is unreasonable.

Everything that happens at a wedding is what makes it unique.
Yes. It sounds like many of these problems were due to poor planing, which is your fault. There are several things I wish I had done differently, but I am not going to go out and spend another 15k so everything will be perfect. I married the person I love and want to spend the rest of my life with, that's what the day was about. Not the cake, the guests, the floor, photographer or even the rings.

You need to learn the real meaning of a wedding.
You want to go through this stress again?? I can't believe it! LOL You will never have "another" wedding, really - unless you marry another person. Let go of the past; yes, the wedding may not have been the "wedding of your dreams"... but it's only one day. Make sure your marriage is the "marriage of your dreams", and you'll be the winner in the long run.

And if you have money burning a hole in your pocket - plan a nice vacation with your husband. Take a cruise or visit a place you both have always wanted to go to. You'll enjoy yourselves, you'll re-connect, and you'll have good memories to re-live over and over. Good luck.
if you want too spend the money go for it
0_o that is a lot of things that went wrong....

i would have a renewal party now the road. people just came to your wedding so they might think omg what is she doing?! (that or go omg what else can go wrong). wait a few years, then have a "do-over".

i am really sorry though :(. do you at least have any nice pics?!
