Introduce Yourself

ylleknna

I wish this board was more active. Of course, I am on the 10/10 board and that seems to be the most active board on this site, especially given the 10/10/10 weding date!

Anyways, with that said, I think we should get to know everyone on the WI board. Maybe this could get our board a little more active then. I was wondering who everyone is, where approx are you from in WI, and when is your wedding date and name of your FI??

We had a post like this not that long ago...it was the "Will the Real Brides Please Stand Up" post I think.

That being said, I'm Sarah and I'm from Waukesha County.  I'm getting married on 12-11-2010 and my fiance's name is Jon.  I go through wedding planning phases - there are weeks I love it and there are weeks that I stay far away from anything wedding related.  I'm in an "on" phase right now so I've been spending a lot of time on the Knot!

Sorry I missed the previous post. I periodically check this board.. Maybe with it seeming to be more active recently, we can get more people to post!

Brittney, you should join the 10/10 board!

I suppose I should answer my own post also!! ; )

My FI's name is Justin and we are getting married on 10.2.10 in the Manitowoc/lakeshore area.

Sorry, I missed typing out part of my post.  I was trying to say that it seems like the WI board activity comes in spurts....I hope it gets more active,  Knotting helps me pass the time when FI is playing video games!!

My name is Kate and my FI is Sean.  No official date set yet (definitely summer/fall 2011, though) - we're going about the process a little backwards...picking a reception site we like first and setting the date second!  We live in Waukesha, and hope to have the reception in downtown Milwaukee (hopefully somewhere on the lakefront)!

Hello Ladies! My name is Lianne, and FI is Kevin. We just moved back to the Waukesha area, he is from Indianapolis. I finished up my Bachelor's degree in Indiana, and wanted to move back home. We are getting married on April 28, 2012! It seems like I am the farthest one out! I wanted some time to plan, as I am still in search of a career. But I have some things already accomplished for the wedding. I am sure time will fly by.

ylleknna

Don't worry about the time; it'll come fast! I got engaged in 7.08 and have had plenty of time.. didn't get into though until I finished school.
