    We Etsy'ed it up for a lot of our stuff---but, other than that, it was just kind of "wedding."

    Well since some of you are new to me (because I lurk more than post..) I think it's time for a poll!

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH?
    He is allergic to cats and well, I have one.  We dated for over 2 years before I learned he was allergic.  The cat would sit in his lap for hours.  Little did I know he would have trouble breathing and take massive amounts of allergy medicine.  the things men do for love.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?
    The food!  love all the great restaurants.

    3) Favorite Food? Cheese- Brie in particular

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    tall nonfat Mocha no whip.  Then I tell them my name is DIVA!

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    Sit and spin.  I could turn myself around on that thing for hours.  I think I just dated myself.

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding? Calla lilies- definitely

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?  We did a phot guestbook and had a taste of Philly snack are to remind us of home.

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH?
    I gave FI a big ol hug after our first date and I guess it really took him by surprise because he just stood there as rigid as a board.  I figured maybe he wasn't a hug kind of guy so the next date I didn't extend the gesture, but as we were saying goodbye he suddenly gave me a huge bear hug back, which caught me off guard so I didn't react well.  We finally got it right the third time.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?

    Memories!  My family used to take vacations there all the time.  I would have never imagined getting married in an Elvis chapel growing up, but at this point in my life I can't think of anything that would suit better.

    3) Favorite Food?

    Mexican or Tex-Mex, hands down.

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you order...

    A blended coffee frappucino, grande.  Or something with coffee and ice in a slushie form.

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; I was never a girly girl.

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?
    Sunflowers and peach colored roses... We're not using either, though.

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
    Pretty personalized.  Almost all the decor/accessories chosen represent something we enjoy or something meaningful to us.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?
    Everything! It's just fun.

    3) Favorite Food?
    Mex

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    Iced Carmel Machiato

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH?
    I'm really bad at coming up with these on the fly - I know there are some really good ones but at the moment I can only think of the fact that yesterday, almost his entire department went on a golf outing during the work day.  He doesnt golf, so he was left behind and decided to go to a movie instead.  Who does that?!

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?
    All of the restaurants, the atmosphere, and people watching!

    3) Favorite Food?
    Dessert!  Cookies, Ice Cream, Cake, Cheesecake, Candy, mmmmm....

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    Hot Chocolate.  Or nothing, if its summertime.

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    My American Girl doll - Samantha!

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?
    I never knew much about flowers until starting the wedding research.  I am sort of in love with Ranonculus for whatever reason, but no..not using it in the wedding.  Ha.

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
    Undecided at the moment, but trying to incorporate the Green Bay Packers somehow to give it a personal touch from our engagement (right now, leanings towards personalized M&Ms in our wedding colors, but with the Packer G logo so that it is still wedding-y.  Unfortunately as much as I love the Green and Gold, those colors are just not going to go with my wedding)

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH? He hurt his back the other day during sexy time. It was nothing crazy, promise! His back just hurt the next day and was spasming, so he went to the doc. The doc asked "Did you do anything yesterday that could have hurt your back?" Apparently he got kind of flustered and didn't know what to say and after a few seconds he awkwardly blurted out "SEX..."

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?
    Gambling! Also, the energy in the air. It's addictive!

    3) Favorite Food?
    CAKE!!!!

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    Caramel Macchiato or an iced vanilla latte

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    I loved Barbies! I also loved Easy Bake Oven.

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?
    Hydrangeas and gebera daisies. I'm afraid to know how expensive they'd be. Right now I'm using carnations...

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
    I DIYed the invitation design, and I'm making cupcake picks with our monogram. I plan to use our monogram everywhere, like programs, place cards, aisle runner, etc. Also, we have our dopey cake topper idea- a Persian and a Manx cat to represent our ethnic backgrounds :)

    Off the subject Natasha I used roses, carnations, and daisies for my wedding and I used J & E floral and she was the cheapest I found. I got my bouquet, all my  bm's bouquets, groom and gm's bouts, mothers wristlets which were actual jewel bracelets very pretty, grandma corsages, ceremony decor/floral which was also used at my reception for a very reasonable price the best I had actually found.

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH? 
    Maybe not funny to anyone else, but he is a huge mama's boy. He won't let me throw out things his mom bought him when he was a kid. But, I can never get him to call her. It's like pulling teeth to get him to call and talk to her. Seems contradictive to me. 

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas? 
    Hands down the food. 

    3) Favorite Food? 
    I've been on a huge Chipotle kick lately. I could eat it every day.

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    Recently, it's been a coconut mocha frappachino with soy milk. But if I'm feeling cheap usually an iced coffee with soy milk. 

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    My brothers N64

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding? 
    Roses. But I did not use them except as an accent in my bouquet

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding? 
    I don't know if we really did a good job personalizing it other than choosing for it to be brunch. It was so "us".

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
     Incorporating the little cross my brother gave me before he passed away into my boquet, using non-traditional ceremony music, personalized M&M's, and trying to use perfume bottles we've bought at fleamarkets all over Europe in our table decorations somehow. Want our dog to be at the ceremony (not in it) but I'm the wierdo that considers her my baby and wants just one picture with of her there :)

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH? One of the first pics I took of him made him look like he was wearing mouse ears from Disney.  It was actually an object in the background at a weird angle.  I love that pic.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?  Starbucks is always open

    3) Favorite Food?  Whatever it is, I am not eating it these days.  Trying to tone up.

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....  A skinny caramel latte.  I really want a caramel macchiato, but the skinny caramel latte has way fewer calories.  I miss the caramel sludge that you get from the macchiato.

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....  The Barbie head that you can put makeup on and style the hair. 

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?  I don't think I have a favorite.  Leaning towards flame calla lillies since we want orange. 

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?  Is my purple dress enough?

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH?
    He sometimes sleeps with his eyes open and when we first started seeing each other I would have full conversations with him only for him to not remember anything I told him later in the day. It took me ages to figure it out and was seriously worried he had dementia or something. It is really creepy and his brothers do it too.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?
    The lights, the glitz, the showgirls, everything

    3) Favorite Food?
    Vietnamese or Thai or Mexican or Indian tooo hard to choose.

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    Water- coffee is icky!

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    My hand knitted  Worzel Gummidge soft toy made by my great Aunt Kitty. I used to love the show that much! And because most of you will have no clue what I am talking about-

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?
    Orchids (my dad grows native australian orchids which is where i get my love for them) and definately not using them as they are super expensive

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
    By doing it in Vegas (instead of the cliched DW in Thailand or Bali or Whitsundays that is soo common here)
  • edited December 2011
    1) Funny story about your FI/DH?  My granddad's appetite has been declining, and I mentioned it to H.  This afternoon, H goes over to visit with Granddad and took a box of tacos from Taco Bell.  My mom called me when she got home and, while laughing, said, "WTF am I going to do with 10 more tacos?"

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?  Dreaming about moving away from here!

    3) Favorite Food?  Sushi and pad Thai.

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....  Grande light caramel frappuccino with the sauce on the bottom.

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....  I had the Barbie head.  Used to try to make her look like Morticia Addams.

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?   I really don't have a favorite flower, I like them all.  Used roses for my bouquet, since that's what was included in my package.

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?  About the most I really did was use Jane Austen to inspire out invitations and have a South Park cake topper.

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH? We have two big dogs (a Boxer and a Golden) with whom FI loves to play wrestle. He currently has a scratch that starts on his forehead that goes down to past his nose from a wrestling session. He has previously received a black eye and had to go to the ER because he had a scratch on his cornea.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas? I've never been before so I have no idea!

    3) Favorite Food?
    My fave du jour is Greek salad from this little place around the corner. So delicious!

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you order.... A venti, unsweetened, shaken black iced tea (to which I later add Splenda).

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    a skipping rope or my rollerblades, although I was a huge fan of Barbies, too!

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding? Daisies, but I'm not using them in my wedding.

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
    Honestly, I'm not doing much to personalize it. I'm DIYing a few things (fascinator, favours, etc.) but that's about it.

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH?
    He tells me that I talk like a 15-year-old, because I occasionally say things like "whatev" or "omg."  But I think I'm rubbing off on him, because he is starting to say the same words/phrases that used to annoy him so much.

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas?
    I love gambling and drinking downtown.

    3) Favorite Food?
    Mexican

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    White Chocolate Mocha (hot or frapp)

    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was....
    It is so difficult to choose one!  Probably my basketball.  We were always outside playing basketball with all of the neighbor kids on the street.  I also loved my Skip-It!
     
    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding?
    Hydrangeas, but probably not using them in the wedding since I am trying to save money wherever possible.

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding?
    I am also one of those people who wants to include my dogs in my wedding.  I would like to include their pics on the table numbers, although FI doesn't seem as excited as I am.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: POLL TIME!! :) : What is the engagement story?! Also, can you do a GB garter? That's what I plan on doing... go pack :)
    Posted by kasonandjeri[/QUOTE]

    The garter is a good idea, but we aren't doing a garter toss or anything so no one will really see it!!

    I have a looong version of the engagement story in my planning bio (check it out!) but in short...we spent the weekend at Lambeau before the Packers vs Cowboys game last November and FI proposed (in the parking lot, cuz he kept chickening out) and surprised me with our parents being there to celebrate with us afterwards!!!  He proposed the day before the game, and the game-day tailgate party turned in to a big engagement party - again a complete surprise.

    I am a die-hard Packer fan and have always wanted to be proposed to there, surrounded by the loves of my life-  FI and the Packers.  lol.

    1) Funny story about your FI/DH? FI and I met at my 19th birthday celebration.. at a strip club. We both joke around that it was love at first lap dance. (He had bought my first ever lap dance!) HAHA!

    2) Favorite thing about Vegas? I love to party! Vegas is the definition of fun in my eyes. It was the ultimate choice for us since the most important thing to us when we started planning was that we gave our friends and family a hell of a party at our wedding.

    3) Favorite Food? Peanut Butter. It's sickening how much I could eat of that stuff!

    3) Your in line to order a coffee and you  order....
    Iced Soy Vanilla Latte.. mmm!
    4) Your favorite toy as a kid was.... Barbie!

    5) What is your favorite flower? are you using it in the wedding? Lily's are my absolute favorite flower, but no they are not being used in the flowers. Our colors are teal and purple, so we will have teal and purple hydrangeas.

    6) How are you personalizing your wedding? FI and I listen to metal, so we are planning on walking down the aisle together to a Pantera song. I also am notorious for wearing sky  high pumps, so I bought some super sexy pumps that match my MOH's dress perfectly!
