The mom of three originally shared a video, where she showed how chaotic her big day had been.
The images included a selfie of her in her wedding dress with a swollen face, an image of her getting treated at the hospital in her wedding dress, and even one of her in pajamas at the reception.
After she posted the images, many asked her what had happened to make her miss out on her day like that.
She dived in to explain that she wanted to use their homegrown flowers in their wedding, so two days before the wedding she picked enough flowers for her and her family to create bouquets with.
When Miller washed her face the morning of her wedding, she broke out in a super itchy rash.
“I don’t have allergies at all, but I was like okay, this must be allergies,” she said in her video.

After taking medication, she went straight to hair and makeup, where she fell asleep.
When she woke up, she realized she had lost her vision.
“I’ve had three babies, all-natural,” she said, “and that [pain] was still way worse.”
Despite her medical issues, the bride refused to cancel the wedding as it was Labor Day weekend and many guests had used their paid time off to attend it.
Her symptoms quickly escalated to her developing a very high fever and experiencing chills.
“At this point, I look like a crazy person: red eyes, swelling shut, rash, red face, literally inches of snot running down,” she said.
To add to the disaster, her veil fell off twice as she walked down the aisle and the rings were forgotten, so the pastor cut the ceremony short.
Seeing her state, she was rushed to the hospital and the doctors claimed she would feel better in just an hour.
“They gave me steroid eye drops, steroid shots, allergy shots, and prescribed other steroids… they told us to wait another hour for them to kick in and wait for the meds at the pharmacy… I was hopeful at this point that I would still be able to have fun at the reception, an hour passed and we realized none of it was working.”
On the way back, she said that her husband ran to Target and got her pajamas that said “Bride” on them, which she ended up wearing to the reception.
After being three-and-a-half hours late to the reception, they shared “the most cringy first dance of all time” and they didn’t even get to eat since the food had already been put away.
The newlyweds got back to their hotel at 11:15 pm.
“He orders pizza… I fall asleep with rags over my face before the pizza gets there… he eats pizza… the end,” she said.
A commenter on the video wrote: “Sounds like snow on the mountain.
“The sap from the flower is almost identical to poison ivy and targets your mucus membranes,” to which the bride responded: “YOU ARE CORRECT!”
According to Inside Edition, the two lovebirds were given another chance to take their wedding photos about a week later, but not without a hypoallergenic bouquet.
