Hi ladies--
I posted last week for the first time, but have been lurking for awhile now. First, allow me to apologize for not introducing myself properly. I swear I have more home training than that! LOL
My name is Grace. I'm 25 and I'm marrying my fiance Jessica, 27, on August 3, 2012. We are just 94 days away from our wedding! Our "theme" or fave wedding detail is the pinwheels we'll be incorporating. Fun fact: both of my parents are deaf so my wedding and reception will be interpreted.
We got engaged on July 16, 2011 in our front yard. After a day at a street festival, Jess asked me to move the puppy we had just gotten, Izzy, from the backyard to the frontyard to go potty. So I did that and then was petting/playing with Izzy when I noticed Jess watching me like a hawk. She then walked over to me and the pup, pet Izzy for a sec, then turned her collar around to reveal the ring. It was very special!
My original reason for posting is my inadvertant ruining of a wedding surprise...I went to MSU for school (GO GREEN!) and I love the place. I just discovered that Sparty will make appearance at off-campus weddings thanks to the boards here at TK and I began looking into it. I wanted to submit the request form today so I called Jess to ask her if she'd be okay with it. She was, but then she admitted that she had already submitted it awhile ago. I feel awful about ruining a surprise she was planning, but I just love that she was already thinking of me. She's not upset since she claims to have other surprises planned, but I can't help but feel badly.
So have any of you ruined a wedding surprise/gift? How did you handle it?
