1)  Describe your attire and accessories for your wedding:
My dress is the Maggie Sottero "Genevieve" (http://www.maggiesottero.com/dress.aspx?style=J1431) in Champagne, and I'm not sure what my accessories will be yet! 

2)  Is your wedding more of a Budget or Luxury wedding?
I would say it is on the budget side, with a few areas where we splurged (such as on food and the vintage photo booth!). 

3)  Describe your ceremony:
We want it to be super person and down to earth and reflect who we are and how important our friends/family are to us. We will have lots of our friends/family come up and give their heartfelt advice and also read relevant quotes about marriage from their personal/religious/cultural views.  

4)  What do you think is the point of the Chit Chat msg board?
I just joined this forum so I'm not positive yet, but I would say it's just great to get advice from other brides going through the same processes, and since I'm planning a Seattle weding while living in the San Francisco bay area it's fun to connect with Seattle brides. 

5)  What customs or traditions are you incorporating in your wedding?
We want to honor my Irish heritage so we'll likely include an Irish tradition which is giving the bride and groom a horseshoe during the ceremony to signify good luck We'll do others, too!

6)  What are you DIYing?
I'm really into photography and old vintage family photos, so we're DIYing some family photos in frames to be part of the centerpieces, and we're also DIYing the invitations and programs. 

7)  What etiquette faux pas have you committed?
In the past I assumed my boyfriend was invited, whoops!

8)  Are you trying to lose any weight before the wedding?
Nope!

9)  Where are you going for your honeymoon?
Not positive yet but likely Fiji, sooo excited

10)  Describe your Invites:
We haven't done them yet but they're going to feature one of the pictures from our engagement photo sessions. 

11)  How did FI/DH propose?
During a fun weekend vacation to Lake Tahoe

12)  If you are having an outdoor wedding/ceremony, do you have a Plan B if it rains?
I'm too paranoid about rain to plan anything to be outdoors! It's all indoors for me, but since Salty's has an outdoor patio I'm hoping to use that if it's sunny. 

13)  How long is your reception? (in hours)
6 hours (including the cocktail hour). 

14)  Where did you register?
We're going to register at Macy's, Williams Sonoma and TravelersJoy (for honeymoon registry). 

15)  Do you consider yourself Snarky?
Hmm, probably not! 

16)  What kind of beauty look are you going for on your wedding day?

Classic

17)  Do you plan on selling anything after the wedding? (decor, DIY, dress, etc)
Still debating this one! Most likely something to do with centerpieces?

18)  How many people are in your wedding party?
4 for me, 4 for my fiancee. 

19)  Do you think you'll go over to TN after your wedding?
Not sure...

20)  Will you miss Hump Day 20 Q's? Since I just joined the forum, I enjoy them, but I think they'd be nice as just 10 questions as well, or maybe even 5, so it's easier for you to think of questions and either for us to read through. THANKS! -Cheryl
