Oh honey... I feel so bad for you. I wish there were words to help you feel better.

I know its a small hope but maybe someday she'll find them.

Is it a digital video? You can load those in your computer and take snapshots from it. Not the ideal situation, but its better than nothing.

If I were you, I'd call her and lose my temper...as a bride you are entitled to at least one outburst.
Perhaps yelling will make her think a bit harder about where she put them. Unless she deleted them, they have to be SOMEwhere.

good luck.

I'll go work on my time machine so I can go back in time and take other pictures for you.

Oh Kathy, that is heart-breaking. I'll hold her down while you beat the crap out of her if you want! I'm furious about her 'attitude', it really stinks!

I hope you can get pictures off the video, or thru her someday somehow.

hugs from the heart,
Karen

What a bummer! Did anyone else have a camera? Your sister or Bob's friend, anyone else there? Ask everyone that was there, maybe someone took some you don't know about, that was how I got my colored ones. Since she is chasing all over with her BF that means she isn't married yet, ask her if she plans on having a wedding photographer! Ask how she would feel if guy/gal "lost all the pics" no big deal when it's her wedding???? I bet she would hit the roof!! I had black & white pics taken as all we could afford but they said we could get them colored any time in 5 years. We went back & they had"lost" them so all we have in color is couple of little snapshots someone took & was kind enough to give us. 1 of cake with lavender flowers & lt. green leaves & 1 of us & his bro & 1 bridesmaid so at least you could see color of their dresses & my flowers. I was sick that I couldn't get even get 1 8x10 in color but it wasn't to be. I can't imagine not having any, how heartbreaking hope some can be found. Jan

That is horrible. One of my friends thought she had deleted all her pics on her camera card and she took it to our local computer/camera guru and he was able to recover over 500 pics for her. So it might be worth a try if you can get the card/camera from her.

Oh Kathy I'm so sorry to hear that.I can only image how you feel.I'd be mad.I guess not all of us come right home and download our pictures and then back it up yo a disc.

I'm so sorry about your wedding pictures Kathy....I'll help Karen hold her down for you...I'll even throw in an extra punch or two if you'd like!

See !?! Somebody should have crashed!

Let this be a lesson to all of us. When one of us has a big event, and they are in the same city as you, crash the party!!

I should have been the one person that you both didn't know, snapping pictures in the back.

Congrats on getting married. You still have your memories.

When I got married my wife's uncle offered to do the video taping. He forgot to take the lens cap off. You just can't trust relatives.

I gave my granddaughter a huge 8th birthday party. I wont go into detail but rented building, 1950's themed outfits, etc. etc. etc. I took all kinds of pictures and found out that my film was not advancing the entire time. AAARRRRGGGHHH!!! I'm wondering if the SIL just took all lousey blurred pics and could not bare to admit it to you. How could it be that she does not remember where she downloaded the pics? Another idea is that she hit the delete feature instead of the upload. She might be acting vaugue because she doesn't have the self esteem to admit that she or her boyfriend screwed up. It sounds like she is disassociating because she cant cope with the embarrassment of such an action. Maybe it is not being flipant but evasive of her responsibility to be forthright. People can be complicated. If everyone could just be forthright the world could be so much better.

Oh Luna that's too bad.
It really does sound like she's being vague about it. Surely she knows what she did with them. Maybe they loaded to a different program she's not familiar with and the boyfriends sister will eventually find them or like Beck said maybe you can get some stills off the video. I've even taken pictures of the TV screen in pause mode of an old VCR tape to get some pictures off of it.
I do hope something works out for you, but sometimes things happen and there's nothing you can do. Why don't you and Bob go have a picture done. Even if it's just at WalMart. It won't be the exact day, but it's close and it could be your "Wedding Picture".
Good luck and Congratulations to the both of you!!! Donna

I agree with Donna. Get all dolled up again and get some new pictures. Even tho its not "the day" it is close, and you will treasure them down the road. Maybe your sister and Bob's friend would be willing to wear the same outfits as on the wedding day and you could have a pic taken with them as well.
And yes, you certainly have a right to be upset!
Congratulations again on your marriage and best wishes!
Kathy

Kathy I am so sorry your pictures are in limbo somewhere I do hope they show up. But I like the idea of dressing up again and have your picture taken. Our niece had a huge wedding fancy fancy the photographer she hired messed up all the pictures so she has no photos either. When my daughter got married the photographer was late, but I had bought those throw away cameras at each table with a note asking the guests to take pictures of their table and of bride and groom when they came to their table. The good news is that the photographer got there! Hurray and to make up for being late he stayed through the entire wedding so we have lots of memories. But let me tell you I was really stressed out!

My sister did take a few pictures (thank God!) so I have a few along with the very unflattering video. lol This is the one somewhat flattering picture of the two of us. We are hoping to have a celebration this summer so hopefully we will have a better photographer at that event!

Thank you all for being so sympathetic. Our wedding was rather rushed (someone would have thought I was pregnant with the speed we threw it together lol) but it still meant so much to me. It would have been nice to have some nice closeup pictures of the two of us together.

I think the next time we have pictures taken, I'll take them myself. I always take the best pictures of myself. he-he

Kathy, hope you don't mind but I couldn't resist playing in Photobucket to see if this could be enhanced a bit.
See if you like this
