About Mrs. Lovebug

You guys have been so ridiculously awesome with all your feedback on my pro pic posts. Seriously. I can’t tell you how much it means to me. Yesterday we were out birthday shopping (omfg I’m 33, people - 33!), and I kept making Mr. Lovebug bring up Weddingbee on his phone so I could read the new comments. And though I don’t respond to every single one, trust me - I have a good portion of them memorized.

Means. The. World.

So as a token of my gratitude, and as a wee gift to those of you who demand–er, requested that I post over the weekend, I’m giving you something I had absolutely NO intention of sharing with ANYONE, like, EVER. Presenting the single most horrific photo of our wedding:

One Lucky Day, Weekend Bonus: Pele-zilla! :  wedding tucson Kick


What you’re looking at is me, playing soccer with one of the lovely pomanders from the ceremony chairs. Words cannot express how mortified I am that a) I did this and b) it’s immortalized on film (so to speak). But I promise you, it was the one and only flower arrangement to suffer abuse that night.

Yep. I am one classy bride.

Please don’t show this to my florist. Or my MIL. Or Monique Lhuillier, for that matter.

I dunno…maybe I’m not so “klassy” myself, but I think it’s a great shot of the dress, and ML should be flattered her work of art looks great, even while engaged in floral abuse. ::smiles sweetly::

that. is. awesome.

is that dirt flying everywhere? or the floral foam flying out of the pomander? nevertheless, best picture ever.

may i ask why you did it? you look so serious, like it wasn’t a fun thing to do?

At my friends’ wedding, a bunch of us that went to college with the groom sat around a table and played sputnik- which entails, I kid you not, tossing around an apple and catching it on forks. You leave the fork in and throw it to the next person, and see how long you can keep it going and how many forks you can get on the apple. And yes, it was caught on film.
IMHO, that’s waaaaay crazier than soccer with a pomander. Soccer with flowers in your wedding gown? That’s awesome.

It looks like you were playing soccer in the mud! Heehee. But seriously, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with kicking a pomander - call it stress relief, light entertainment, whatever!

That’s brilliant! I love it!

More bride’s should trash the wedding, much more sensible than trashing the dress. You should get to have some fun with the florals after they’ve served their purpose!

I love it! I was laughing at the picture thinking, “You know, I would do the same thing!” I really like the super intense look on your face.

a) HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

b) Your photographer is uh-maze-ing. I think this shot shows perfectly how well he captures action (holy flying flowers, Batman!).

c) Look how coordinated you are, yo! I would have been on the floor had I attempted that in such a dress and such lovely shoes.

d) Thanks for all you’ve posted so far. I cannot WAIT to see the Chaucer pictures… I had something of a terrible work week and was overjoyed to spend some time yesterday catching up on the ‘Bee and enjoying your fantabulous posts. It’s all beautiful!

1. At least you’re 33 and MARRIED!
2. I think if that’s the worst pic of you the whole day, you’re incredibly lucky!
3. Its a keeper. Put it as the last page of your album. It will always make you laugh when you feel like crying :)
