My weekend with Whit!

Ok, this happened last weekend, but I've been sick all week, so I'm just getting around to posting. We had a freaking blast! We went to Beale St. in Memphis, had some kick ass ribs and people watched at Coyote Ugly (what an experience!). The  next day, we worked at a large bridal show that TK and The Wedding Channel sponsored. Whit worked TK and I worked TWC. It was the most random ass thing; they didn't give us all of our signs or really anything to give away...except for probably 500 TK magazines and buttons that say "I'm the bride!!!".

Overall, it was SO FUN! My big impression of Whit? She's TINY! As in 5'1. Oh, and her H?  Super sweet when I was there! Totally not what I was expecting. AND, I was at the hotel she worked at and an Indian family (groom's side) rented out the entire hotel for an Indian wedding. What a site to see. We got to see all the women parading down in their Saris and everything. So cool.

    I've been trying to reply to your thread but my reply ended up on some random RD thread! Anyway, you guys are super cute (and wow, whit IS tiny!), although I found the sentences, 'Oh, and her H?  Super sweet when I was there! Totally not what I was expecting' a little amusing- what were you expecting?! :P

    PS: how did you guys end up working for TWC/TK at that bridal event?
  • Look at Whit!  She's all tiny n stuff!  Honestly, online, I imagine that everyone's the same height as me- until proven otherwise. lol!

    You both look super hawt by the way.  How do you find these events to work? That's crazy! haha!

    I've been to Memphis once for a conference and man did I not like it.  But that may have been because my hotel sucked donkey balls (as in, no hot water).
  • Oh oh oh!  Do you have pics of the Indian wedding? That would have been so fun to watch!
  • Even though we talk almost every day, I think we all have a preconceived notion of what her H is like. (Unless you missed everything that's gone down here about all that). He just really wasn't what I was expecting at all. And thanks, she's a cutie pie. And? she is exactly how she acts on here and on the phone.

    Whit did this show last year and this year, they asked her to have someone help her. She asked me and I drove the 5 hours to do it!

  • She's in like 2.5 in heels there too lol. And thanks! I was looking at the first picture on my computer and it made me realize I seriously need a new beige bra. Some weird side boob thing going on lol.

    I liked Beale st. It was like...the best of the worst type of people. I'm talking 300 pd women in clothes that I would wear. Guys with mullets, anything and everything. We had one drink each and just people watched the whole time. I could spend hours doing that.

  • No, we didn't get any pictures. It was SO WEIRD what they were doing. The whole wedding took up 3 entire hotels in the city. The grooms side was all in Whit's hotel. They are from Shereveport LA and chartered 3 buses to Whits town. This was...Saturday night? Well, they all had to leave Sunday. So the reception was on Saturday and the wedding itself wasn't until Sunday morning/early afternoon. The men were so funny. The women were an entire hour late getting down stairs and listening to them was cracking us up.

  • You both look totally cute. :)  I guess I wouldn't assume that Whit's H would be a douchenugget in front of another person, and I'm sure there's SOME reason she married him! :D hehe
  • I guess it came out wrong, I think she would know what I meant.Not that I expected him to be a douchenugget, just sorta standoffish I guess? But he was seriously super sweet. The whole time we were gone he was texting her how much he missed her and saying really sweet things.

  • Omg, how could you turn down any guy who's on a segway?
  • You two are adorable! I just can't imagine Whit dancing on a bar; that is awesome.
