What style of wedding would you choose if you could do it all over again?

I'm curious - did anyone have the "perfect" image of what style of wedding they wanted? Did anyone actually make it happen? Or are there others who, if you could do it all over again, would do it completely differently? I was married in January. It was a gorgeous day. My hubby and I wanted to pay for everything ourselves. I was working at a restaurant and he was working in a bank. Together we didn't make much at all. Our decorations were simple and pretty, but nothing extravagant. The day before the wedding, my Momma and I had brought a few things to the church and realized we didn't have anything at all to decorate the reception tables! We managed to put something together, but when I look back, wow, the decor was really lacking. Of course, if I knew then what I know now about what is available for very little $$, but allows you to really make your wedding and reception memorable, things would have been different. My heart was to get married in the fall. I envisioned a huge white tent on my parent's place filled with friends and family. If I could do it all over again, I'd decorate everything with mini lights, flower arrangements and great centerpieces on my reception tables. We'd have a dance floor and dancing! :) What would you do differently?
