  3. That sound so yummy! I thought FOR SURE I was going to eat at my wedding. We had soul food - fried chicken, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, corn on the cob, cinnamon rolls, etc. and everything was so good. It was the BEST friend chicken I had ever had - but I only got to eat a small amount because there was just too many things to do. Plus, the food was so yummy everyone cleaned the buffet out - there was NOTHING left! I'm still sad that I didn't get more fried chicken and if I had to do my wedding all over again I would do my meet and greet during appetizers rather than during dinner - then I would have had time to eat.

  4. I've been married once before (oops) and the stuffed shrimp I had for my main course were the best stuffed shrimp I've had EVER.

    This time around we had burgers and hot dogs and peanuts and pretzels and the like...because our reception was at a baseball game :) The food was good and all but nothing overly exciting, haha.
