Newbie Here! :)

Hi there my name is Georgia. I've been reading all the post for a while now, and finally thought I would say hello and introduce myself. My FI and I are getting married October 23, 2010 in the Renton area. He proposed on April 20, 2010 a day before my birthday! It was a total suprise and very romantic. If any of you have seen "Love and Basketball" he reenacted the final scene of the movie. We were playing basketball and he asked to play for my heart. It's my favorite movie! He bought if for my birthday 2 years ago. It was so sweet. When I turned my back to get the ball he said "Double or Nothing and was on one knee! I loved it! Here is the final scene for anyone who hasn't seen it before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DkvD2Hs2tQ&feature=related

So that's our story. We've been together 2.4 years and we're madly in love. AW Laughing

Hope to get tips from you all and pass along any that I have! Have a great day!

    Thanks! I was suprised too at how clever he was. I was totally thinking he was going to ask me over a nice dinner or something. :)

    Yes, we are getting married October 23, 2010. So I had to start planning immediately. So far things are going smoothly though. I have the cater, photographer, my dress paid for, bm dresses ordered, invitation in design process right now, and most of my decorations already purchased. Of cousre I still have a lot left to do but it's coming along nicely. :)

    That is super cute!  Congrats & welcome!  Honestly, if I had any advice it would be what you're doing: plan the wedding in 6 months!

    For some reason, this made me think of feminist hulk and drunk hulk. Maybe there should be a wedding hulk?
