So last Saturday I got married. All the usual things went wrong: I broke out two days before the wedding (after more than a year with no pimples), the Mother-in-law was late to everything and pitched a fit because we didn’t play the songs she wanted to dance to, and my dress was slightly too long to dance in.

[_sigh_ it was perfect.](http://picasaweb.google.com/CDEDBD.Ducks)

And I’m never ever going through that again if I can help it.

Congratulations! You were a beautiful bride, and that was a stunning dress. ::sniff:: Almost makes me wish I had had a wedding!

I love the look you two gave each other in the picture right after your maid of honor handed your bouquet back to you!

I wish you many years of happiness!

Aren’t you supposed to say “congratulations” to the groom and “good luck” to the bride?

Whatever.

I forget who said it, but the quote goes, “May your wedding day be the worst day of the rest of your lives.”

Think about it before you call me bad names.

And, good luck.

You have the most beautiful veil & gown, the most beautiful cake and the most beautiful bridesmaids’ gowns. Congratulations!

I love when brides wear their hair down. I don’t know who decided it was a rule to pinch the poor girls’ hair up into severe knots made of impossibly elaborate pincurls.

Congrats and best wishes.

Ummm, not to be shallow, but is there any of [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=390917) left?  
Just wondering, because I have the munchies big time and that sure looks tasty. 😃

And may you and your spouse have many happy days together!

That makes me happy because the cake, hair and bridesmaids dresses are really the only things that I absolutely refused to let my mother plan. She took care of all the other details, which was actually really nice.

Congratulations! I especially like the picture of you taking time out from your big day to surf the Dope. Very appropriate. “Just checking a few threads, hon. Be right with you!”

Great…one less gorgeous, intelligent, fun-loving, classy, well-read dame in the world who’s available. And I’m supposed to celebrate this? :dubious:

Well, congratulations to you and your beau, anyway, and good luck. You look beautiful in the dress, by the way.

Congrats! Gorgeous dress (and damn, you look great in it\*) – I esp. liked the ass shot of you and your dad. 😛

Best wishes to you and the mister for many, many years of happiness together.
