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!

      that’s cool!
      LOL about the boys

This one is great for busy folks who want to make a “special” drink without too much fuss. 🎄 

It’s literally just water frozen in the bottom of a glass with some rosemary taped in it. I waited a few hours the poured in some Prosecco and added in edible glitter (you can use multiple colors!) pretty and delicious, and keeps your drink cold! Cheers! 🥂 ❄️

The end of the year is always a time that I reflec The end of the year is always a time that I reflect on how things went, what I want to do different or better in the new year, and to be honest…I’m always really hard on myself.😕

I often end up sad or frustrated that things didn’t “turn out as planned.” But planned according to who? Success according to what? 

As we were ice skating last weekend at Gaylord Opryland, laughing and just having so much fun as a family, I was hit with what I can only describe as a warm fuzzy. I wanted to smile and cry all at the same time. I thought to myself….this is it right here. 🥹

If nothing else good happens, I’ve got this and am so rich because of it. These moments. This is what I always prayed for as a girl when imagining my family one day. And it’s here, happening right now. I don’t want to wish it away waiting for the next big thing to happen. 

I just want to ice skate with them in a place that makes us so happy. Wha a year. ⛸️ ❤️

It’s still Thanksgiving weekend so this counts as It’s still Thanksgiving weekend so this counts as a Thanksgiving post, right? 🦃🫶🏻

I took the day off on Thursday and then worked a ton Friday, EK had bball Saturday and then we went out of town. I realized I never posted for turkey day! 😜

I have so much to be thankful for, most days I feel completely undeserving. God has been good to us, even in the days that don’t feel so good. His plans may not make sense at the time, but thankfully He is the one that sees the whole picture, not us! 

We are going into the Christmas season with hearts full of gratitude and love as we celebrate the birth of Jesus. This is the most special and my favorite time of year! Let the celebrating continue! 

Lastly, I am thankful for all of YOU! For liking, commenting on, and watching my content over the years. Without you, my career doesn’t exist and I am beyond thankful for the opportunities this job has given me. So THANK YOU! 🫶🏻
