I should probably introduce myself :)

I should probably introduce myself lol. I was so caught up in all the deployment madness that I just came straight on here and typed away. Anyway, hi everyone! I am a studying to be an Xray Technologist and will graduate this may! yay! I plan on continuing my education for a bachelor's in health administration.
My fiance and I got engaged in March and have our date set for September 22 (hopefully, read 'Deployment' post). He is my best friend and such an amazing man. We have been together for about 2.5 years.I am pretty much all done with the planning of the 'big' stuff of the wedding. All I have left, is the florist. And there is a reason i left that for last. Soooo many options! Can I just have every flower at my wedding please. Anyway, I am hoping to be able to post on here frequently and get to know all of you.
Best of luck in planning for you wedding!

Hello and welcome.

Hey there. Welcome to the board. Stick around! We have a lot of people who introduce themselves and then we never hear from them again.

Hi and welcome.  There is a very informative sticky at the top of the board.  You may want to check that out.  There is also a button in my siggy that will link you to an FAQ page that has a ton of information about married life in the military.

Hi and welcome!  As far as flowers go, are you on Pinterest?  It's where I've been able to combine most of my ideas into work-able inspiration pictures!

I am having my maids in navy blue with silver shoes and want to decorate with either yellow or pink flowers. Haven't decided yet. I really wanted my fiance to wear his uniform but that was a no go :/ He isn't as involved in the planning as I would like for him to be, so I figured I should let him wear what he wants ;) The wedding is set for outside but if I have to change my date for late fall, I suppose we may have to do it inside which won't be as pretty but at the end of the day, we will be married! We are having the wedding in Atlanta. All of his family is flying down from New York, so it should be pretty convenient for everyone.

Yes! I am obssessed with Pinterest. And it's where I found the picture of what I want my bouquet to look like. Also, I am getting so many other ideas from there! I love it.

Late fall in Atlanta should still be lovely weather!  At least you could do the ceremony outside?

Like Cal said, Pinterest can be your best friend! Congrats and welcome.

I am hoping so. The weather is so unpredictable here but my wedding planner told me there have been brides who have it outside in November and just hire like a heating service. So that could work! Reception is inside,
