Oh this is tough, I'd love to rescue dogs or at least be a stay at home dog-mom. If I won the lottery I'd totally do that!
9. How did you and your fiance' meet?
We met in grade school and dated in junior high. I broke up with him cuz he wasn't on the "right" basketball team. He said I broke his heart but then in high school (junior year) we started talking again and ended up back dating summer of 1999 and have been together ever since.
10. When did you get engaged, and how did he do it??
We went to Florida October 2009 to celebrate 10 years together and to visit friends from college. We went to a FSU football game and he later told me he had the ring with him at the game. However, FSU lost, so no ring that night. The next day, October 11, we went around campus and took pictures and at Westcott Fountain (it's a beautiful place...Google a pic of it) he wanted to switch sides with me for the picture. So I'm smiling all at the camera and he said "babe", I turned and there he was on one knee and he asked me to marry him! My girlfriend has it all captured through pictures. I was surprised and didn't think we'd get married because I knew money was always tight. So another great reason we're getting married in Florida.
11. When is the Wedding Day?

I'd have to say all the November brides: Kayla, Ann-Marie, Sarah, Leslie...it's just a fun bond knowing we're all tying the "knot" next month! 19. Favorite book?

Friends, Grey's Anatomy, NCIS or Amazing Race
22. Favorite wedding dress designer?
I'll say Mori Lee as that's who made my dress 23. Any advice you can give to other Knotties whose big day is coming up?
I've been thinking of this...it's tough, cuz planning a destination wedding is very unique, I'd say do what you want as it's YOUR wedding. Everyone will always have opinions, but just as long as you and your man are on the same page, that is all that matters. Life is too short not to be happy! 24. Is there anything you wish you could change about your wedding?
Not a thing 25. Tell us your Knottie name and how you came up with it.
fsujen18...well, I went to FSU and was 18 when I created my e-mail account that is associated with my name, nothing to extraordinary
26. Tell us about yourself!
I try to live a life without regrets, I'm loving, sometimes sensitive and am a very faithful friend. I have been a door mat in the past as sometimes I may be too forgiving, but I think that's just me. I try to find the good in all. I'm thankful for my
parents who made me the way I am as well as my friends. This board has eased some of the planning craziness and for those who are still planning or lurking, stick around, this board is amazing!
