This past weekend, my People magazine came in the mail. I read People and US Weekly while working out ... its my incentive to work out to get my gossip. And if you read it, you know that Kim Kardashian and her wedding were highlighted in People.
I don't want to give it more press than it deserves (which i feel that has been exceeded already) but it left me with a nagging question.
If i had all the money in the world, Would i have done my own wedding differently? Would i have had 3 dresses? Would i have been more elaborate?
If money wasn't an issue, is there anything about your wedding or wedding planning that you would change? Would you have a crazy over the top elaborate wedding, or still go for something simple and modest, with fine elegant touches?
How would you have splurged differently?
9 nuggets of thought:
If I was someone used to having tons of money at my disposal, I might have splurged on a few things here and there, like jetting everyone to a destination venue or going for an uber-fancy gown. But in the end, I loved everything about my wedding and wouldn't change it. There are so many other things to spend that kind of money on. I must say I'm definitely not a fan of Kim and the gang, either.
Glad to see someone who reads to workout - I think I'm going to take my Kindle with me tomorrow!
i think if i had that much money, i'd hire an amazing photographer (like those awesome ones in magazines) and jessica simpson's hair/makeup team. i love her and they always do a really good job on her!
This is the proper blog for anybody who needs to seek out out about this topic. You realize a lot its virtually hard to argue with you (not that I actually would want…HaHa). You undoubtedly put a brand new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Nice stuff, simply nice!
Sometimes we think we would throw an over-the-top wedding if we didn't have a budget. But in the end, you want to enjoy the celebration with your guests! A meaningful, well-executed wedding with small details and personal touches can be done regardless of budget. Yes, you might get a different dress or splurge on couture heels or the venue, but you woudn't compromise on creating an atmosphere that reflects you.
I can't imagine going over the top but I would definitely added some extras- esp with food, photography, music and flown in any friends/family that couldn't make it because they couldn't afford to come.
The only things I would do differently would be to order a day-of-coordinator, a GREAT photographer (Jose Villa, to be specific) and gotten a photobooth. Everything else, I would never change. And the things I would change wouldn't have changed anything we made for the wedding or found together; they're just extras.
I would have made a few changes to our wedding as well...I think every bride wishes she could have somewhat of a do-over ; )
If I have all the money in this world, I would want a Wedding held in the island of Hawaii. I want to rent a whole ranch there and invite all the people starting from my existence in this world until now who have made me become who I am now. It is going to be still a very simple wedding but very memorable for us the couple and the people whom I have invited.
