Behind the Scenes at the Green Wedding

So, you’ve all heard so much about the upcoming Lumi Green Wedding! It was so much fun to shoot even though it was so complicated. There were so many different people involved with making the wedding so beautiful and special. The dresses Monique Lhullier sent over for me to try were gorgeous – it was so hard to select which one to wear. I’ve never seen St. Luke’s look so beautiful with all the gorgeous flowers by The Hidden Garden Floral Designs. The place was literally overflowing with blooms. Shooting weddings are always time consuming and complicated… and believe me I know! This will be Sami’s 10th!!! But this one was made even more complicated due to Bryan getting extremely ill on the day of shooting. While many grooms may look a little green around the gills, that isn’t really the story Days is going for. Lol. So, we had to re-schedule the wedding to give Bry a couple days to recover. It was so brutal too – Bryan is such a trooper, he came to work and was trying to do the scenes without any complaint. But he couldn’t hide it for long, and was eventually taken to the Doctors. When I spoke to him later, he was so drained… he needed to sleep it off. So after a few days delay, we got the scenes done, and everything from there went off without a hitch. Well, there’s always a ‘hitch’ or two in a Sami wedding! But, as far as production went, it was a really long day, but the scenes went according to plan. I just got a sneak peak at one part of a show, scheduled to air at the end of next week that got me choked up a little… I can’t wait to read what you all think when you see it. Well, anyway, while we were shooting the scenes of Sami getting ready to walk down the aisle, the nbc.com cameras were close at hand to shoot some behind-the-scenes footage - XO ali

Allison I have been watching DOOL for YEARS...I have seen all 9 weddings and looking forward to #10. You are a wonderful actress. I enjoy the fact that your writers are not afraid to reference God when necessary and the Christian religion. Looking forward to many more great episodes. Keep it up. My husband and I record Days on our dvr every day and watch while eating dinner, and sometimes my husband gets more into it than I do..Thanks!

ali- you're a fantastic actress and seem like such a sweet and geniune person. i've been watching Days off and on since the 70's when i was a teen. Sami's always been my favorite character,since you came on the show, and i've always wanted her and Lucas to end up together but now i have to say Sami and EJ really sizzle on screen and make a more interesting sl. i guess time will tell what will happen!

i love days of our lives

im 15 and i love days of our lives

Sami and Lucas I have been watching Days since it started and I am so happy that both of you are finally getting together and I hope you have a wonderful life. I hope EJ and Kate get what they deserve as they deserve each other. I am looking forward to seeing your big day.

I think you are great. I am so glad to see Sami and Lucas getting married. I've watched the show now for almost 27 years. I love you and the whole cast.

Ali- I loves seeing the behind the scenes! (i always wonder what goes on back there lol) I am so very excited too see your wedding! You looked beautiful in that gown! But I have been watching Days since I was 16 and i really hope this is the last wedding!! haha Good Luck:)

You look amazing in that wedding dress, sami and lucas are such a hot couple, and the passion with you two is intense, i wish i could get that kind of passion with a man, and a man that gorgeous lol!!

I HAVE WATCHED DAYS OF OUR LIVES FOR YEARS AND AM GLAD TO SEE THAT SAMI AND LUCAS FINALLY GET THEIR HAPPY ENDING. EJ AND KATE JUST NEED TO GET A LIFE AND LEAVE SAMI AND LUCAS ALONE AND LET THEM BE HAPPY

I can't wait until the green wedding! I just hope that Sami gets the happy ending she deserves! I'm sure you will look beautiful, as always. I can't wait to see your dress.

Just wondering if Sami and Lucas will be having a honeymoon and where it will be?

Allison,

You are a wonderful actress and I love Days and hope that you never leave the show. You are so lucky to get to work with such a handsome cast. James Scott has to be my favorite and girl, I am sorry but I hope the writers turn E.J. good or some how make it so you two end up together. I don't want your character to turn bad though. It would be great if they brought back a long lost love for poor Lucas though...I don't want him to be hurt. Okay, now I sound silly, I know that these characters aren't real but I love the show. Maybe you could drop a hint when the mop might appear:) It would be a dream to meet you and the cast.

I am toatlly excited for sami. Allison ur a great actress. Your working that dress girl

Wooohoooo Sami and Lucas are going to be together!!! I'm so happy for Sami! The green wedding idea is a wonderful idea! If I wasn't already married I would go that way for a wedding as well!

Does anyone know Sami and Lucas' wedding song? The first dance one

I love you Ali you are my favorite. ive been watching days for 13 years and i have always loved you no matter what...keep up the great work..

ali i was just curious to who plays EJ on dool my mother in law and i watch this show religiously lol but just curious to who is the character that plays EJ

Ali, i have watched days for 20 years, and you have always been my favorite on the show.You looked soooo
beautiful in the dress,Its about time you and Lucus have a happy ending,(hope it stays that way)By the way its about time you hit E.J that was GREAT...

Alison I really enjoy you getting marry. I been watching Days for 21 years and you and Lucas is great.

Leri2003

ali you are beautiful and i love the fact that you take no mess and stand up for yourself

LUCAS AND SAMI FINALLY MADE IT YEA!!!!!!!!!!!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YEARS

I have been watching Days for over 20 years and I am so glad to see Ali and Bryan finally get married! I can't wait to see what happens next!
You both look so good. Keep up the excellent work.

I am and always have been a HUGE Days fan. I started watching Days with my mother in 1968 (since I was about 6 years old) and was captivated by it. I think I could recite just about most of the major story lines and name most of the characters and their various parts. It provides a brief esacape from life's anxities. Sami's wedding was beautiful and I'm so glad her and Lucas are together finally. Keep up the interesting story lines.

Sami you looked beautiful for your wedding. You need to get rid of EJ so you and Lucas and have a wonderful life together. But now that Tony and Stefano are back on the scene you better watch out. I see a lot of trouble coming in the next few weeks.

Alison,
I am trying to find out who made the dress you wore on the episode right before the wedding episdoe. It was a yellowish strappy dress with a floral print I believe. I absolutely loved it! I want to know who made it so I can search for it to see if I can find one! Thanks! and I hope you see this and can answer for me. BTW, you and Bryan are great together on-screen....love that you finally got to have a wedding scene that ended good. Thanks!

i missed sami and lucas wedding and i wish i could have seen it and unfourtunately there is no oither way to see it. can you send me a picture of the wedding?

I have watched you grow up, and you are THE BEST actress ever, keep it up. And by the way, you look great, on top of being beautiful.

I agree bring back someone for Lucas! But, you need to be with EJ. I hope James is not a snot off the screen then I would have to not like him, but he sure is pleasant on the eyes, a georgous gentleman just for YOU.
