I'll start! My name is Sarah and my DH is Steve. We got married April 26, 2009 at Town Manor. These message boards were so helpful for me when I was planning our big day! My fun fact is that we have a baby who turned four months this week. Something interesting...I think too many brides skimp on their makeup; your face is in every photo, so spend the extra money on someone who has training in makeup for photography!

My name is Jesica, and my fiance's name is Brian. We are planning to get married sometime in January of 2012. Our colors are a range of whites, greys, and muted blues and navy's. We want something smallish (no more than 100 people) somewhere in the Winter Park or Sanford area, I love the Winter Park Farmer's Market for a reception, now to find a church. We love traveling together, I work for Marriott so I'm usually able to get us decent deals, he proposed in Charlotte, NC... later that night his cousin proposed to his girlfriend in Mt. Pleasant, right outside of Charlotte.

My name is Ana my fiance is Phil. We have been together a little over 2 years and plan on getting married on October 27th of this year. Our venue is the Eagle Creek Golf Club (to any girls on a strict budget this place is awesome!!) 

fun fact: we had actually "met" each other a few times before we were formally introduced by mutual friends becase we were both working at Universal at the time and ran into each other backstage.

Name: My name is Morgan and my fiance is Christopher.
Wedding details: We're getting married December 20,2012 at Leu Gardens with the reception at Winter Park Farmer's Market.  Our theme is nautical with navy, cobalt blue, a teal/turquoise, and ivory. We are very excited!
Fun Fact: We live in Dallas, Texas, but Christopher is a Floridian on a very long vacation. When we got engaged, we just had to have our wedding in his hometown- Orlando. Christopher is in Chiropractic school and I'm almost finished with my Pre-med undergrad degree.  December was the only time our school breaks coinsided. We can't wait to move back to Florida after school!

Name:  Hi, I'm Nicole and my fiance is JJ.

Wedding Details:  We were just married on January 28, 2012!  Our ceremony was at the Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens with the reception at the Winter Park Farmers Market.  

I didn't really get to post on here too much while planning because we own a business and it has been super busy.. but I plan on sticking around to try to help out other brides with their planning.  I did a lot of DIY stuff and hired all local vendors, so hopefully I will be able to help!  Can't wait to do reviews and share pictures with you all.  Happy Planning!

I am Yelle, and I am an event coordinator in the area. My fiance is a video game concept artist. We are getting married May 4 2013 at the farmers market in Winter Park. Our colors: sage, lavender, tan. Our theme: rustic &  botanical. One unusual thing about us: we collect taxidermy butterflies and insects. We fell in love with it on our trip to Paris in which we visited one of the oldest taxidermy shops there! It was so magical.

That's so awesome that your husband is an entomologist!!! I collect taxidermied butterflies and insects so I love finding out taxonomy and researching the insects. I didn't know there was viable careers for entomology in Florida!

I'm Jessi and my FI's name is Vincent!

We are getting married November 3rd (?), 2013...I don't know an EXACT date yet, but I'm shootin' for this one!! :) we're looking in the Orlando area to get married, but have ONE spot in mind...Heaven Event Center.. :) Our colors are marine blue and ivory. Our theme...hmm! Not sure how to describe it, but I want a lot of stars involved...not PROM themed, but enough to be simple yet elegant :) Elegant like Stardust the movie, but not OVER-THE-TOP, ya know?? :)

A Fun Fact: My FI and I met working at Disney World and he proposed to me at the Grand Floridian, as the orchestra on the second floor played "Beauty and the Beast", which was the first song we danced to back on our second date!!!

Hi!!

I'm Denna (sounds like Dee-nah) and my guy is Travis.

We're getting married August 4,2012! We're less than 6 months away!!! We're getting married at Garden Theatre in Winter Garden with the reception at their ballroom for around 130 people. Our colors are pink ( a few shades) and orange. Travis picked them out because they match my hair Laughing. We don't have a theme per say but photos are involved so maybe that's our theme, idk. 

Our fun fact....let's see.....We have a fur, exoskeleton and scale family. Along with the 3 cats, we have a crabitat of hermit crabs and a tank of fishes!
