Jean in Newcastle Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I noticed this coming up a lot in the "list 5 things" thread. I do not have a picture displayed of my wedding day. Somewhere in my very messy schoolroom, I do have a photo album with wedding pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fhjmom Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Nothing upstairs but dh and I, live and in person :D. :lol::lol: I do have a wedding day photo on the mantle with a collection of other family photos in various frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylianna Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I had a courthouse wedding, SIL was there and took a pic of us kissing. That picture is in one of those collage picture frames with other pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abigail4476 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 No. We have an album, but we only had one picture on canvas, and we lost it when we moved from Louisiana about 10 years ago. I tried to call the owners of the house we rented to see if they found it, but I never could get an answer. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 No, but I have a beautiful needlepoint my maid of honor made with our names and date displayed. I bought dh a couple of John Lennon prints as a wedding gift and they have always hung in our bedroom. So no photos, but a few reminders of the day.

Jean in Newcastle Posted November 6, 2010 Author Share Posted November 6, 2010 No, but I have a beautiful needlepoint my maid of honor made with our names and date displayed.

Miss Sherry Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I used to have one in our bedroom. Since we moved I have not put one out. It looks so dated to me now. :lol: I do have wedding photos of my daughter displayed. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annlaura Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 My grandmother made us a sampler which is hanging in the living room. Whenever DH asks when our wedding date was, I just point. ;) I have a collage frame of 5 photos in the hall, a large photo in our bedroom, and several small photos mixed in on shelves and on the piano. A close family friend took our wedding photos, and she did a great job. I love having them out. The collage photos include group family shots, and my DH has spent lots of time with each baby teaching them the names of all our family members, especially important to him now that his father has passed.

littlebug42 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I have a picture of me with my parents and a picture of our whole wedding party on the wall in our living room. Last night actually we were looking at it as one of our groomsmen was over for dinner and we will soon be celebrating our 12th anniversary.

eternalknot Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I eloped, and have no wedding day pictures. There's one Polaroid of us about a week later, and it's somewhere on my refrigerator buried under eight years' worth of other junk (kiddie art, recipes from magazines, stickers from apples, alphabet magnets, et cetera LOL). It's technically displayed, I'm just not sure where or to whom :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie12345 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Nope. We have very few pictures from our wedding day, and I've never really liked the dress I wore. I only bought it because it was cheap and got the job done. :tongue_smilie: We had gone through all the ceremonial motions, but kept it very small, inexpensive, and as informal as possible. Dh's cousin took some pictures, but I don't even have them all. MIL kept the negatives. :001_huh: We just celebrated our 10th anniversary, and we went through the old pictures with the kids that afternoon, which was a lot of fun. But definitely not display worthy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nono Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 No. But, I think that's in reaction to a place we bought just before we got married. The young couple we purchased from had HUGE portraits all over the condo of themselves from their wedding day. To this day, we refer to them as Mr. & Mrs. Narcissist.

Peela Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Yes, because of dh's line of work, actually. He is a therapist and often gets women transfering onto him and adoring him and he decided having a wedding photo in obvious view was a good idea. Our official wedding photo however is a picture of one of each of our feet. I have a beautifully henna painted foot, and he has a wedding ring on his foot (with carpe diem engraved on it).

Mom in High Heels Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Of course! We have a b&w in the living room and a smaller (4x6, IIRC) color photo on my night stand. I like to remember the day and Indy loves to look at the photos. We've been married 15 years. Oh, my mom bought a 16x20 of me in my wedding dress that hangs in a hallway at her house. It's a great photo, but it kind of freaks me out that it's so huge. :001_huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freerange Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Nothing on display, but for us it has always been about the life more than the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrappyhomeschooler Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I did have one hanging in the office, but my sister moved in with us, and she is using the office as her bedroom, so I don't currently have one. Since we eloped in Vegas, it's not a traditional wedding photo, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatherwith4 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'm feeling a little goofy, because it's been eight years and we still have about six pictures from our wedding on display. :). My mother practically has a shrine to our wedding right when you walk in her house. I'm sure that will change when my little sister gets married in a few years, though. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagira Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Yes. I had a big, Catholic wedding in a gorgeous church, and my train was probably 10 feet long :) Everyone likes the picture (it's a large photo, mounted on the wall in the living room). Dh and I look so young. Dh was 21, I was 23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN Mama Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I don't, but not because I don't want to. We got an album full of pictures, so I didn't purchase any to frame, but when we were married a few years I thought I'd purchase one to have framed. Couldn't find the photographer. He told us that before he'd dump the pictures we'd be notified in case we wanted to purchase, but we never heard from him. Makes me sad. I suppose I could see if I could get a photo out of the album to copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danestress Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 to have photos of yourself on display. I have a small one you could find if you were looking, and I have many in my wedding album. I am not saying I personally think it is tacky. I don't really think that when I go to someone's house and they have a wedding photo on display. But if I did it, my mother's eye rolling would annoy me, so I don't! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garga Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I wore a pink flowered sundress to get married. My dh wore a suit. We didn't have a professional photographer. I did my own hair that morning and, frankly, it looked kind of limp. So, no. I don't have a picture to display. We didn't do a big wedding and so the pictures from my wedding are just snapshots a friend took. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanceXToo Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'm an "Other." I don't HAVE a picture of my wedding day. <sniff, cry, pout> So my husband and I had a TINY wedding. Like, it was us, my mother, my brother and his (now ex) wife, and that was IT. And a non-denominational minister did it at his beautiful, water front, Long Island home, and in all the excitement, can you believe that neither my mother, my brother, OR my husband or I brought a camera with us? Nor did we hire a photographer for such a small event. Then the non-denominational minister informed us that he had some of those disposable cameras and that we could have one of those. So we took it, gladly took pictures, later went to develop them... ...and found that not a SINGLE one of them came out. Then we saw that the camera/film had been "expired" (who knew!)... by several YEARS. So.. I don't have a single picture of us on our wedding day. Otherwise, I'd have displayed it. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereneverever Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Yes- it's so fun to look back and see how cute we looked. The kids love it, too.

journeytolily Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 We have a beautifully framed portrait in our living room - large, 16x20. It's sort of in a corner. I would feel funny hanging it over the fireplace! But, I loved our wedding (10 yrs ago), and DH and I look really good, so we do keep it on display!

Denisemomof4 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I have two large wedding photos hung above our bed in our bedroom. I also have a small one of us in the living room downstairs hidden among several pictures of the kids, and another on an oak pie cabinet. So yes, they're on display. Boy we looked good then.

I was 5 or 6 months pregnant, when I got married, too, with my now 10 y/o daughter :D (I didn't wear a big white dress considering I was pregnant, AND it was my second marriage anyway haha and like I said, it was a VERY tiny ceremony with VERY few people, no reception or anything like that). It's not a secret or anything and I still wish I had pictures though! (if you read my earlier post, we totally forgot cameras, then the guy who married us gave us a disposable one he had on hand, and we took and developed pics only to find that not ONE of them came out, they were all black, and it turned out the film was expired- by several years!)

Impish Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Yep.

Or is that semimental? Whichever, he's it :tongue_smilie: Our wedding pic is on our Family Wall. All the kids baby pics surround our wedding pic, with a baby pic of me up in a corner, diagonally from where I sit in the wedding pic (same side of the wall). Everyone, including us, prefers the pic of Diva and I together...we're cheek to cheek, and she's so stinking young and sweet looking...*sigh* But I figure it might not be quite...polite...somehow to take down the pic of Wolf and I and replace it with the one of Diva and I...:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
