HOLY SHIIIIIIZZZ!!
I really can not believe it's my turn. I joined the knot in Fall 2008 and my life will never be the same because of it. There are so many amazing things that came out of being a member of this board. The friendships and commradery found here are unreal and so special. There are, of course, also down sides. If I had not joined The Knot I would probably be saving a few thousand dollars, not have upligting or Gil Sosa or chargers or freaking drink flags, but I wouldn't change it for anything in the world.
You have been here for my vents and AW's and everything in between and I can not thank you girls enough for that.
Jaime: My first friend on the knot

. Thank you for being the kind hearted, supportive person that you are. You have touched my life more than I am able to tell you. Thank you for being you and for always accepting me. And CONGRATS ON YOUR HOUSE!
Jill: Thank you for helping my work day go by quicker! I've really enjoyed getting to know you and Mrs. Tiara (ha!) and being able to bitch and complain when I needed to and vice versa. Thank you for your humor and sarcasm, always

.
Christina: You are a trip! Thank you for always being honest and straight forward and telling it like it is. You're the best negotiator I've ever met, and your baller wedding is going to be amazing because of your skills.
To Joanne, my fellow NC bride who is only 8 days after me...thank you for hanging out with me this week! I'm so happy we got to do wedding fun together and talk about our crazy families. Your day is going to be beautiful and I am so happy for you and Justin!
To Alissa, Amy, Tess, Jen, Stephanie, Tiffany, Andra, Elena and of course COURTNEY! Thanks being you! This board is so amazing because of you girls and your big hearts!
I'm not saying goodbye, because I have NO WHERER ELSE TO GO, so I'll be an 80 year old grandma hanging out on The Knot message boards. It will definitely be different, but I will be around long enough to see you girls get married and be here for you as you've been here for me.
I'll leave you with one piece of advice...DO WHAT MAKES YOU AND YOUR FIANCE HAPPY! Do not worry about your parents, in-laws, grandparents, friends or anyone else. This isn't about them and if they don't understand that, well shame on them. You will seriously go bonkers trying to please everyone and you will end up with a wedding that is not for you, but for someone else. So, put your big girl panties on, learn to say NO and make your wedding the best damn day that it can be for YOU, your FIANCE and no one else.
I love you all and I can't wait to see your shining faces you at Cheesecake.
AH!!!!! I'm getting married on Sunday!
XOXO,
Sara
