Wedding Tag Post

I saw this on someone else's blog and decided to play along. Writing it was a fun trip down memory lane!

1. Where did you and your husband meet? We worked together and knew each other for a while before we started dating.

2. How long before you kissed? I guess you could say we kissed and then started dating…oops!

3. Who kissed who first? He kissed me and I kissed back!

4. How long from the time you met until you were engaged? Well, we knew of each other for about a year before we started hanging out. We were “just friends” for about 6 months. Our official first date was in November 2002, we got engaged the following August and married in April 2004.

5. How did he propose? Pretty low key…He left me a sweet card on my kitchen table asking me to marry him. We had pretty much talked about it for a month or so before, so it wasn’t a real surprise. I still have the card today.

6. Did he pick out the ring or did you? I totally picked out my ring and then told him what he was getting me!

7. Do you still like the ring? Yes, but I would like to replace the diamond. Somehow over the years it got a small crack in it.

8. Where was your wedding and reception? We had the best wedding location ever!! It was in the Fragrance Garden at Red Butte Gardens. The perfect outdoor setting that I wanted. The reception was in the Orangerie, an all glass enclosed building inside the Gardens at Red Butte. Perfect weather, perfect day!

9. How many bridesmaids did you have and who was your maid of honor? I had three bridesmaids (Wally’s daughters) and one little flower girl (my neice). My sister was my maid of honor.

10. What color were your bridesmaid dresses? Plum

11. What was your bouquet made of? A mix of Spring flowers with calolilies.

12. Who gave you away? My dad

13. Did you cry during your wedding? No, but I’m pretty sure Wally teared up a bit

14. What style was your dress? I loved, loved, loved my dress! I don’t know how to describe the style, so here’s a pic:

15. Was your wedding kiss sweet or sexy? Short and sweet

16. Who caught your bouquet? No one, I forgot to throw it!

17. What flavor was your cake? White cake with raspberry filling…mmmmm

18. Did you smash the cake onto each other's faces or feed it to each other nicely? We fed each other nicely. Wally warned me several times before our wedding that he would not respond well to smashed cake in his face, so we both played nice.

19. What was "your song" that you danced to at your wedding? No dancing, but our “wedding song” was by Greenday, Time of Your Life.

20. What did you serve your guests to eat? My favorite part…we had a made-to-order crepe station and a cheese fountain with all kinds of things for dipping (my pick!!)

21. What did your friends do to decorate your car? They didn’t. We drove away in a clean car.

22. What was your favorite wedding gift? I don’t think I have a favorite wedding gift, but we were so surprised when we showed up to the Anniversary Inn on our wedding night and the room had been paid for by one of Wally’s good friends. That was pretty cool.

23. What was the worst wedding gift you got? We really didn’t get any bad gifts. We are still using a lot of them today!

24. Where did you go on your honeymoon? We spent a few days going to amusement parks in Florida before taking a cruise to the Bahamas. Other than me turning into a rock lobster from all of the sun exposure on my translucent skin, we had SO MUCH FUN!!

25. Looking back, is there anything you would have changed about your wedding? Not one thing. It truly was a perfect day!

I tag anyone that wants to play along (who hasn’t already) and relive their wedding day!
