Wedding Take Two?

February 8, 2013 | blogging, family

 

Some of you may have seen the teaser photo on my social media accounts yesterday, asking why I was wearing a lot of makeup and nice jewelry. Well, I got to do something fun with Bobby yesterday…we were in a local TV commercial for a hospital, and we had to dress up as a bride and groom! Also, I got to wear my own wedding dress! It was a lot of fun (and we got paid, which REALLY makes it fun!)

Bobby and I have dabbled in acting/modeling for years and we enjoy it when we get the chance to participate.

We headed to a church not far from our house to shoot the commercial, and once we got me into my dress (which takes forever!) It was show time.

Truck full of filming equipment

It was neat to see again all of the work that goes into filming just a short scene, those guys work hard! We had to stand and smile, look at each other, kiss, etc. and only shot for about ten minutes. However, I can’t wait to see the finished product!

Not to mention, I never thought I would put my wedding dress on again, so we couldn’t resist taking some fun photos since I was all gussied up. So, here you go, six years later! We had a blast taking these.

I will be sure to post the finished product whenever I get to see it.

QOTD: Have you ever worn your wedding dress for anything other than your wedding? Do you still have your wedding dress? Do you plan to save your dress?

    You look gorgeous! Getting to wear your dress again must have been so fun! I am not yet married, so I haven’t gotten to re-wear my dress (it lives in a garment bag for now). I’m sure I’ll cleand it and keep it, but I don’t know if I’ll get it profesionally preserved.

      I thought about it but its a lot of money to have it sit in a box. I have mine in a zipped up garmet bag.

    Beautiful! I do have my wedding dress and I want to make it into Baptismal gowns at some point. Em missed being baptized in one (she wore the one I was baptized in though).

      I thought the same thing about making a dress for a (hopefully) one day daughter!

    You look beautiful.
    My wedding dress was covered in beer spills and sweat. I didn’t take it in immediately to get cleaned, thus it was ruined. Nope, never will wear again… That’s ok. It’s like 5 sizes too big anyway.

    Omgosh! LOVE this 🙂 How fun! I can’t wait to see the finished product.
    I am wearing my wedding dress again. I am going to wear it to run the 5km at the RunDisney Princess Half Marathon 🙂 I can’t wait! It will make for some great fun run pics 🙂

    I still have my dress. Safe in its box preserved for later. Not thinking my daughter will want to wear it. Times have changed in 16 years. Don’t know if it would fit me now. How fun for you. Maybe one day I will open it up and see if it still fits

    I do still have my dress. My mom & I have both been on a weight loss journey and plan to pull out our dresses for “way too big” photos when we reach our goals (both within 10 lbs of goal but well below our marriage day weights). Should be fun!! 🙂

    For our 10th anniversary, my husband and I put on our wedding outfits and took pictures. We plan to do it again on our 20th!

    How Fun! My husband and I actually met shooting a commercial together many years ago.

    I think I still have my wedding dress somewhere? I’m 100% sure I will never wear it again I was pregnant at my wedding and the dress is HUGE. I’m not sure why I’m even saving it. I have two boys so I know they won’t be wearing it!

    • Heather says

      that’s cool!
      LOL about the boys

If you want a luxury hotel feel in Destin Florida, but still something that caters to families (hello kids club!) then this is it! Your search stops here! Drop any questions you may have in the comments and I am happy to answer. 🏖️

If you are doing Disney World, this is an easy clo If you are doing Disney World, this is an easy close by dinner to slip into one of your nights that will have you saying: “why didn’t we come here sooner?!?” (Ad) 🍝 

Simply Capri is just outside the parks and feels like a calm reset from the chaos of the day. Soft lighting, relaxed pace, and an authentic Italian menu where everything feels familiar in the best way. (Their pizza oven was sent over FROM Italy!) 🍕 

Enjoy cocktails on the patio or dessert under the soft lighting after dark. It still feels like part of your vacation, just with a slower rhythm and high quality delicious food. 

Save this reel for a night when you want a break from park food but still want something near by!! 🇮🇹

I’ll be honest… I sometimes find beach resorts kin I’ll be honest… I sometimes find beach resorts kind of repetitive.(ad)

Beach. Pool. Restaurant. Repeat.

But @margaritavillefortmyers surprised me. 🎉

What made it stand out wasn’t just the beautiful beach. It was the little things. A pool we kept coming back to, a location that made everything easy, sunsets right on property, spacious rooms, and that sweet spot of being family friendly without feeling like a kid-focused resort.

It ended up being one of those trips where we were already talking about coming back before we even left. I want one of you to experience this feeling for yourself, sssooooo….

🎉 Now YOU could be gifted a 2-night stay! 🚨 (closed, winner announced in stories 6/6)
