What was the single MOST memorable moment of your wedding.

Wedding???

I'm in full on wedding mode, 2.5 months to go and I need to do A LOT more organising!

I don't have a dress eeeek (I've picked one, just need to order it), but it's got me thinking. We aren't spending a fortune, and I don't suspect we need to in order to have beautiful memories, so what was YOUR most amazing memory?

My favourite part was..

My dad collects cars, we used them in our wedding, my dad drove one and my brother drove the other. After the ceremony my dad told us that he was going to go home with my mum in her car and that we could drive his car home by ourselves (he NEVER lets anyone drive this particular car). We drove the 1/2 hr back to the reception alone in his awesome car. It gave us time to chat and catch up, wedding days are so full on you just don't get time to chill, that's why it was my favourite part.

Good memory: We couldn't afford a photographer and we got married in the registry office, so all our guests brought their cameras, we met up at a local park, and they all took photos and emailed them to us - we have some stunning shots, none of them posed because we weren't under pressure

Bad memory: DH's parents had such issues with our low key wedding that they refused to come to our reception. They ended up coming, for about 10 minutes, and left just as my parents were getting there. They were embarrassed at the table decorations my mum had made, and mortified that we had it at a local sports club on karaoke night. It upset DH a lot, I wish they hadn't come at all if they weren't going to stay.

We went away for our wedding, took a few friends, our parents and my brother with us. A week in the snow. The whole week was awesome, but the best bit was standing in our room with my soon to be dh, DD1 and looking at the three of us in the mirror. There was this glow about us, and no one could wipe the smiles off our faces.
Also when our celebrant said you may kiss... I turned my head so dh couldnt kiss me! We did kiss, but no one got a photo of that kiss, everyone was too busy laughing to get their cameras ready for the actual kiss. In a strange way its nice knowing no one captured that kiss, its ours, our special moment, that was too special to share in pictures!

Honestly my favourite memories of our wedding are those that didnt cost us a cent..

DHs family picking on every aspect of it on the video, and my cousins DH throwing the wedding cake (a slice not the whole thing) at my maid of honor and hitting her in the back of the head.
DHs cousin bringing their 7 year old when it was no u/18s and everyone else hadnt been able to bring their kids.
Oh..you wanted good memories? Lol

I just remember DH's jaw drop when he saw me walk up the aisle.....I felt $1,000,000 bucks!!

I don't have just one most memorable memory. Here are a couple:

*Sitting at my friends table with my DH and my really close friends and just laughing and chatting.
*Having photo's taken with my siblings (all in the bridal party) and my DH.
*My now BIL (then sisters boyfriend) who bent over backwards running around for us and doing everything possible to help out. Fabulous guy.
*My dad's speech. He is a great public speaker.
*My SIL. Managed to cause all the problems that actually did happen. ie, causing everyone to start walking down the aisle too quickly; dashing off with her kids (flower girl and page boy) before we could get photo's done; standing in front of the photographer when he was trying to take photo's of the cake (seriously in every single cake photo). But you know what, they are such little things that really don't matter in the scheme of things, and my wedding was seriously brilliant and fun despite anything she done.
*Going back to the hotel suite DH and I had rented for the two nights after the wedding. Believe it or not there was no hanky panky, but we spent hours in the spa together watching movies and eating chocolate.

My DH's grandmother felt unwell on the day. She thought the best thing to do was to stay home. But she got so fed up with the thought of missing out that she drove herself to the reception so she could join in the fun! It was so cute hearing her tell the story. DH's grandfather's face when she walked in was priceless

She has since passed away but I always laugh when I think of that moment. Especially the part where she really wasn't meant to be driving!

The look on DH's face as I walked up the "aisle".
Saying our vows (I teared up)
The shock on everyone's face at the confetti cannon at the end of the ceremony
Our beautiful flower girl (who's gone on to make a career out of being a flowergirl )
Feeling like a $1M in my wedding dress
Forgetting the steps to our first dance and Dh whispering instructions to me

[kimmi]

Awww, I'm loving all these responses. I'm tearing up thinking about them all!

Seeing the look on my soon to be DHs face when the church doors opened and I started to walk up the aisle

Getting to the end of the night and realising we had organised everything except a car to the hotel. Myself, DH my step brother and his girlfriend and our MC ended up piled into a two door Datsun 120 Y. We got some looks when we pulled up outside our very posh hotel in such an old rusty bomb with a bride hoping out

[~Hestia~]

Thought of another! DH kissed me before the whole 'you may now kiss the bride' part. He fully dipped me & everyone was whooping it up! Was a bit embarassing but still funny!

i also loved the look i got when i walked down the aisle

my wedding was so awesome!! we got married in DH's parents backyard, and it was SUCH a party! DH built a pond and water feature which we got married in front of. we had a cheap photographer, which at the time was good, but looking back wish i'd payed more. she cost $750 cause she was only starting out, and the photos were just really posed and not very good quality....but meh, we still got some nice ones. for our music as well, we didnt have a DJ, me and DH just burnt a couple of cd's of all our favourite music and played through DH's soundsystem. heaps of people commented on how cool the music was! it was just such a party, it wasn't formal, it was laid back, and everyone had a blast. but im just biased, of course im going to say my wedding was the best but that was my best memory, just how fun and what a party my wedding was. hope yours is a fantastic day as well!! all the best xxx

Me saying "I Do" at the wrong time (several times!)
DH almost putting my ring on the wrong hand
We were bumbling idiots...our ceremony was pretty relaxed though and we all had a good laugh about it.

After all the celebrations just chilling out together in our suite, that was nice.
