Ok, I am actually 39, but will be 40 in March.  My sweetie is 40...only four months older than me.  I hope it's okay I popped in here.  We have both been married before and I have four teenagers who will be included in our small (50ppl or less) wedding.  I never had the "white dress" experience so that is what I am aiming for.  We live in West Tx.  Our date is July 7, 2012. 

Anyway, just wanted to say HI!!

    Hi again,  I said hi to you on another board as well.
    I hope you find the ladies here on the Knot as friendly and helpful as I have!
    Wow, 4 teenagers!  How old are they?  My youngest is the only 1 left at home and he is 18.  I am almost an empty nester!

    Wow, you must have been busy when they were small.  My daughter has a 5 year old and almost 3 year old twins.
    That is cool that you 14 year old will be the officiate.  I didn't realize that someone that age could be.  It should make the ceremony very special.

    Welcome and congrats!  I agree, I would double check the legality of a minor officiating a wedding.

    well the legal part will be a JP signing off on it.  But for the actual ceremony will be my 14yr old.  We want to have a very guest inclusive and having my 14yr old "MC" the ceremony works best for us.

    Not sure about our cake yet. I know I want something simple. I am considering having several small cakes in different flavors. I need to visit some bakeries in our area and see what they have to offer. The worst choice so far for me is the cake topper....ugh!!

    Welcome and congratulations.   I am not having a cake topper for my cake--just fresh flowers.  He gets the cake topper for his cake.  It is a dyecast replica of his motorcycle.  Something we did in fun for our engagement photos that kind of produced a theme---
