So, I'm in my 30s and have been married before in my early 20s. I just took a look through my Pinterest wedding board from back then and omg. 🤦‍♀️😂 I don't even know who that person was- she couldn't have been me lol Man, so many mason jars. hahaha

Mason jars were totally the aesthetic in the early 2010s! I wonder how we will look back on the trends of the early 2020s when someone else we know is getting married.

funny

Lol I feel this way looking back to my old photos from teens/early 20s. Can't believe I wore some of those things haha

I know exactly what this is like. I literally was like why did I like the farmhouse theme SOOO much!

Oh yes. Some memories also haunt me sometimes. Hahaha. But what can we do? It's all in the past now.

My wedding is in less than a month, and I'm already regretting purchasing wedding favors. I wasn't going to do them, but I assumed I'd get something out of it. So I bought shot glasses since we like to collect them and a lot of our family does as well, and by the time I realized I shouldn't have gotten them, it was too late to return them. I'll keep them out in case anyone wants them, but I'm already regretting it.

I'm bummed I didn't get a crown. I really wanted one, but I was worried of looking ridiculous because I'm older. A s I learn more about the history of bridal crowns, the more I realize I should have gone through with it.

I regret rehearsing the couple poses with my groom before the big day. I spent hours poring through inspiration boards on pinterest and preparing a list of poses for the photographer, but in the end, we both looked uncomfortable.

There were only a few things I regretted about my wedding. I'm regret how I let others talk me out of doing things I really wanted to do.
