Do you feel left out of guy friends' weddings when you don't know the bride?

Are you wearing your glasses?

    I wear glasses and I love them! I notice some brides opt for contacts on their wedding day. Did anyone wear their glasses? Pics?

    I haven't decided yet. I almost always wear my glasses; contacts tend to dry out my eyes within a few hours. On the other hand, I don't really feel like my current glasses would go with my wedding dress, and the frames are old enough that the paint has started chipping (I love these frames, seriously). So maybe if I get a new pair in the interim that i like enough, I might wear my glasses; otherwise I'll go with contacts.

    I always wear my glasses, and would have to buy new contacts for the wedding, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to do it. I just remember looking at my grandparents' wedding pictures from the 50s and how terrible their glasses looked. I don't want to hate my pictures in several years because my glasses are no longer in style :) Vain, maybe, but whatever.

    I still have to buy new specs (mine were lost in a tragic kick boxing match of doom!), but I am pretty darn certain I will be wearing my specs on the big day.

    I love the way I look in glasses, & I even think I look better with them than without (it as taken me a looooooooong time to get "used to" my face without them). My partner thinks I look good in them, but he thinks they distract from my eyes, so he would likely urge me to get contacts, but I am still fairly set on the idea of a spectacular specs!

    There are definitely a few blogging bees in the archives that rocked their specs, I think Candy Corn was one. :)

    I wear both but prefer contacts.  I see better and they are more comfy than my glasses.

    I wore my glasses. I wear them every day and felt like it would be so so so strange for me not to wear them at the ceremony or reception! I did a tulle birdcage with them, and it looked totally fine!

    I wanted to wear mine, but FI said no :\ We both wear glasses every day but he doesn't think it looks dressy, which sucks because I think he looks sexy in his glasses!

    I plan on wearing my glasses. I've worn them every day of my life since I was about 3 years old, so that's pretty much just how I look. I have thought about getting contacts in the past, but I probably wont do it. Maybe I'll get a new pair of glasses for the wedding :)

    My fiance will probably also be wearing glasses for the wedding since he hasn't gotten updated contacts or worn them in over 2 years.

    That makes me feel so much better about glasses/birdcage combo.

    I've had glasses since I was 10, but I'm not wearing them for my wedding day. Typically, I wear my contacts for special nights out, and family get-togethers only. I just hate the glare my glasses make in photographs!
