  • That's a lot of questions! in any case: 1) we had a salmon dish and a beef dish as our options, plus vegetarian/gluten free if requested. Our food was AWESOME (if I do say so myself!). 2) Procrastination. Oh, wait... 3) Wedding stress 4) Bridal party punch ups are pretty terrible 5) My FI played that 'happy birthday to you' song when we were about to cut the cake. It wasn't planned and for a split second I considered killing him, but then I changed my mind and laughed about it. 6) see above.
  • squirrly food choices sound amazing.

  • 1. If you are having a plated dinner what are your options? Filet mignon in mushroom gravy, chicken Florentine, poached salmon in a dill sauce and pasta primavera2. A hobby you have that people might not know.  Maybe people on TK don't know this but I love to cook.   No one was surprised last night when I dressed as Julia Child for Halloween.3. Your secret to losing 10 pounds and keeping it off. Diet and exercise.  A bad breakup doesn't hurt either.  That's the last time I dropped 10 lbs.  A great relationship only seems to add them as has been the case for me now that I've been with DH close to 6 years. 4. Whats the tackiest/worst thing you think can happen at a wedding?A temper tantrum by any grown adult.5. Something your doing at your wedding because fi really wants it.. but you don't care for it too muchWe gave sailboat tealight holders as favors.  I liked them but would have preferred edible favors.
  • 1. Thick cut pork chop with apple-sage stuffing; Chicken roulade filled with cheese, sundried tomatoes, and topped with red-pepper cream sauce; vegetable moussaka2. I quilt.3. Home improvement in 90 degree heat4. IDK. Every time I think I've heard it all, someone comes up with a new one.5. Tuxedo vests that match the BM dresses. And oh, yeah, we're paying for them. For everyone. Because FI promised his GM without consulting the budget, or me. Grrr, FI.6. Our first date was dancing...he took me swing dancing because I'd always wanted to learn, and he knew how. Within five minutes I was teaching him moves!
  • 1. If you are having a plated dinner what are your options? Filet Mignon with Lobster tail and Pan Seared Hazelnut Halibut. There was a also a vegetarian option that turned out to be seasonal veggies and island starches.2. A hobby you have that people might not know. Irish Step Dancing3. Your secret to losing 10 pounds and keeping it off. The usual bull I pay no attention too.4. Whats the tackiest/worst thing you think can happen at a wedding? When the family can't get it together for one day and put the past behind them. Too many weddings suffer from awkward toasts or blow outs.5. Something your doing at your wedding because fi really wants it.. but you don't care for it too much The cake. I didn't want one, he did. Our venue has a famous creme broulee so I wanted to go with that. I am glad we did though because it seems like people really would have missed it.6. Something hilarious/different about you and something hilarious/different about your fiance. too lazy to think right now...
