Fi (and his family) are big foodie people, so I'm sure we'll end up spending a good chunk on making sure we have top notch food. And LOTS of it. He's already all excited about going out for tastings.
And a funny thing, I'm sure most brides would cringe at this, the cake is all on his shoulders. Just as he won't see my dress 'til the day of the wedding, I won't have a clue what the cake is or looks like 'til that day either. But since he loves his sweets, and we've got almost identical tastes in how things should look, I totally trust him.
I don't think I answered any questions when I first started posting.
Your name? FI's name?
Stacy& Alfonso
When/how did you meet?
Work. We both work for the same company but started dating once he left and became my competitor
Favorite color?
Black
When's the wedding? details? When we first got engaged we knew we wanted a long engagement so we set out for June 2012. Just yesterday I told FI I am picturing a Fall wedding. So I don't know if I should move it up to Fall 2011 or push back to Fall 2012.
We really want to be married at our favorite MLB team stadium. That's the plan and goal for now. If not possible we will incorporate baseball some how.
I've been around, not so much lately, but around. So, I guess this is my re-introduction? Your name? FI's name? Connie and Bryan When/how did you meet? At work, 2004. We started dating 1/1/05. Favorite color? Purple and lime green (which are also our wedding colors)
When's the wedding? details? 3/19/11. It's at our favorite hotel in Philly, and will have a vintage/mod sort of feel, but our theme is spring. I don't know how we got that all to mesh, but so far, so good.

I am from Kentucky.l0l. I don't know how it is Cincy, but it's ok. :) I have family from Ohio. Nice state, although they do call us Kentuckians hillbillies. Don't mind though I think it's funny. They have been my fav colors for as long as I remember. :)
I've been on here, but not very active until a couple days ago (I just figured out how addicting the boards are!)
Stacey and Terry We met at college - my roommate and his roommate were friends. Don't have a favorite color but the wedding colors are plum, lime, with pink accent. Wedding is 8/6/11 in Upstate NY. Church ceremony and reception under a tent. Should be a good time, if I don't stress myself out too much with the planning part
Your Name?FI's Name? Reilly and Levis When/how did you meet? At college in 2000. We both relocated to a different city 7 years later, met up, and have been together ever since
Favorite color? White
When's the wedding? Details? June 25, 2011 Our colors are apple green, chocolate brown, cream, with a little bit of gold. Our wedding is going to be in the rocky mountains so we are going with a spring/leafy/outdoors kind of theme/decor.
We met on eHarmony. We are both pretty shy when we first meet people and both work in professions where we don't meet very many people of the opposite sex.
Favorite color?
Purple and orange.
When's the wedding? details? 7/23/11. It's already too big, but my parents are paying, so I can't complain! (too much)

Wow, I've been hearing this all day in different threads.
Explanation: I didn't know that my kid was taking the picture. Is it really that bad. It was the only one that came out with most of the dress in it. I was contemplating what I wanted to do with the strap and sash, which is still an undecided matter.
There are some very awkward/unattractive pictures of me trying on dresses that my niece took when I wasn't paying attention. I didn't make any of those pictures my sig.
Edit: Not that your picture is unattractive, I just don't understand why you look like you are one centimeter of strap slippage away from a breakdown.
