Name: Sierra Date: June 18th, 2011 [[8 months, 2 weeks and 6 days]] Fun Fact: I added him on fb because he kept coming up on the "people you may know" I of course had no idea who he was but his picture was cute. We started talking on fb which lead to hours and hours on the phone and texting, then once he came home on leave we were attached at the hip and the rest is history.
2/11/2012 (would be this upcoming February but the deployment is interfering slightly)
We met online, and started dating last Labor Day. When we found out he was deploying (right around Thanksgiving), we parted ways (that was my doing, and I regretted it so much) but he sent me an e-mail out of the blue in March and moved in with me the following month. He proposed July 2 and deployed to Afghanistan 10 days later. We are planning a Rat Pack themed wedding with a Macaroni and Cheese martini bar (I've always ordered macaroni when we've gone out on a date, it's kind of an inside joke between us)

I'm not so good with the advice... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?
Fun Fact about you/FI: We actually met on a dating website and he truly flipped my world upside down. Since we met back in January we have hardly left each others sides.
My guy and i are look at June 18th depending on the Air force this is the 5th date we have come up with
My guy is rather silly. We have know each other since high school. Back then he purposely left a movie with me so as to have an excuse to call me at anytime about retrieving it yet anytime we would get together he would never take it back always put it off that i should keep it we would watch it next time. After years of this going on he got up the nerve to ask me out, finally, on a real date. We have been together since and i cannot wait to see what else the future has in store for us.
oh yeah and i still have the movie.

My name is Caitlin Anne. Our wedding date is set for 09SEPT2011 I met my FI through a mutual friend who dragged me to a dive bar so he could go meet up with some girl he liked, and pawn me off on his buddy. He had absolutely no chance for the first 2 weeks, just someone to date, but then I started to miss him (he had to go to a special school for a week). He told me to pack a bag and spend the weekend with him right after he got back and we've lived together ever since!
i wasn't too sure i was going to be a military bride until my guy decided to re-enlist last week so here i am.

My name is Tiffany wedding date is Dec 18, 2010 fun fact, my FI and i originally met on a dating website called true, we talked a couple weeks then i cancelled my account. a couple years later he finds me on a different dating website called POF, he didnt realize it was me till he saw some of my old pics. BUT, he enlisted in the army rite around the time we first started talking
Fun Fact: My fiancee and I had gone to middle school and high school together, but never talked until our last 2 weeks of our junior year. We got to know each other through a project we were assigned to for film class. We had only talked for 2 weeks when he asked me if I would be his girlfriend while he was at basic training during the summer. (He enlisted at 17) I said yes and we've been inseperable ever since. He is my rock and I don't know what I would do with out him. I'm looking forward to our future together and being his Army wife.
Fun Fact: FI and I met at work. The first time I said hello, I was in my pajamas picking up my paycheck, and got nervous and couldn't say "hello" right. But he was playing a video game, so he didn't care. The first time we worked together - about two weeks later - was when the sparks flew. In the course of one night he ended up smacking me in the face (accidentally) with a chunk of flying pizza dough, drawing a caricature-esque rendition of one of our coworkers (which sent me into a fit of nervous giggles and caused me to trip on a barrel of pickles), and using this stellar pick-up line on me:
I've lurked and posted a teeny bit on this board, but I should probably formally introduce myself.

I was dating someone at the time, but as soon as I met Josh I knew the relationship with the "other guy" would never last. Two months later we started our LDR and have been together ever since. He is the love of my life. I can't wait to be his wifey!!!

Fun Fact about you/FI: FI and I met through a mutual friend, I had to chase him..ha..We dated for 2 years went our seperate ways, he joined the army in 08 and soon after that was when we realized we should have never broken up (well I realized he had known all along). He went from boot camp in Missori to Virginia and now to Texas we seen each other about 3 or 4 times a year but that will soon change!!
Name: Sarah Wedding Date: April 20, 2012 Fun Fact: My FI is actually my husband already. We've been married for six months, and we were married "by proxy," which is where one partner picks a proxy to stand in for the other partner, and they participate in a sort of courthouse ceremony. It's usually performed for those in the military who can't be at home because of their orders (which was what happened in our case). Here is our story.

Fun fact - I took care of his daughters for 3 days in a dire emergency, didn't know him other than a little bit thru my brother. Girls didn't know me from anyone. His parents picked them up, and the first call between him and the kids once they were with his parents "Can Sami be our mom?" was the first thing out of one of them. Yeah, the adults had no say in this at times, but dang if they didn't help me find the best man in the world for me!
