    First Name & Fiance's First Name
    Holly & Chris
    Your Birthday & Age and Fiance's Birthday and Age
    30 & 36
    City Live in?
    Milwaukee
    How did you and your fiance meet?
    Tri-Wisconsin track workout, although it was after quite a few months of workouts that we first went on a date.
    When is the Wedding Day?
    8/25/12
    Where is the ceremony and reception?
    Lapham Peak in Kettle Moraine Forest - Delafield, WI
    The Preserve at Deer Creek - New Berlin, WI
    What are your wedding colors?
    Undecided right now!  HELP!!!.... really though, it will come together just like all other decisions have over time
    Where are you honeymooning?
    A week in Alaska followed by a week in Hawaii
    Favorite wedding vendor so far?
    Hmm...I haven't really worked with anyone yet other than the bookings, but I'm very excited about our photographer seeing his work online.  I'm also my favorite vendor because I will be taking on many things myself - I love DIY!  My trial run wedding cake tasted phenominal!
    Biggest wedding splurge?
    Maybe you should ask me next summer after I do more, but I'm a pretty frugal bride.  So far though, because I was so set on a wedding at Lapham Peak, I will be spending $5/car for our guests to park in addition to renting the facility & hiring an officiant.
    What is something you wish you could have at the wedding but don't?
    All my friends/co-workers/acquaintances
    in the many different groups/social circles I hang out with.  However, that would expand the wedding from 100 to about 300 easily and just isn't feasible.
    Another knottie wedding you'd like to attend?
    I don't follow too closely on the names, but one with yummy cake please!
    Favorite book?
    Personal Record: A Love Affair with Running by Rachel Toor.  I'm also a fan of the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella, James Patterson, Emily Giffin, Freakonomics, Into the Wild.  Most recent read was The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - great!
    Favorite movie?
    13 Going on 30, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
    Favorite tv show?
    The only two I still watch regularly are Biggest Loser & The Office.  But I also flip on from time to time: Spongebob Squarepants, Property Virgins, Bridezillas, Throwdown with Bobby Flay, The King of Queens, Wheel of Fortune, & Parenthood
    Favorite wedding dress designer?
    Wow, I'm really not into designers... if we're looking at who my dress is by (although I haven't committed to purchasing yet), I would say Alexia Designs
    Any advice you can give?
    On wedding planning - stay true to YOURSELF!  Don't do something purely because it's "expected" and don't let others less enthused by your choices or decisions bring you down.
    Anything you wish you could change about your wedding?
    Of course it would be great to have an over the top lavish wedding where price wasn't a concern with any decision (hello, chocolate fountain & ice cream stand), but realistically, I'm doing everything the way I want it within means.  I'll report back on the success of an iPod wedding too!
    What is your favorite Holiday?Thanksgiving & Christmas
    Where is your favorite place in WI?
    For visiting - most any WI State Park. 
    For living - the Milwaukee area and ease of the city life 
    For eating - Fujiyama & Kopps
    For memories w/ FI - Black River Falls (engagement)

    Share something about yourself!! 
    I was engaged to another guy over 7 years ago.  When that was broken off, it eventually made me stronger for having experienced that and made me more aware of what I expected out of a relationship and what I deserved.  This time around is so EASY because I'm with the right person and we just mesh so incredibly well.  As an advice side note, if you have any doubts about your relationship PLEASE try and get to the root of those doubts and listen to them.  I pushed them aside with my earlier relationship, but luckily listened before a wedding was planned.  Being in my current relationship feels so right and is just so easy.  I am so glad I listened to myself when things didn't seem 100% right previously.  Obviously there was someone much better suited for me.

    Thanks!  I have always lived in the metro-Milwaukee area and actually, yes, I have run a marathon!  Three to date and 100s of other races!

    I think you should become the fitness guru for the board! I would love to run a marathon. Too out of shape, so I am sticking to yoga for awhile.
