    yay thanks for picking me =) I got to sleep in today so Im a little late, but better then ever. =)1. First Name & FI's First name and wedding date?Lacey and Kevin, July 31, 20102. Where did you go to college?Both of us went to University of Central Florida….Go Knights!!3. What part of the world do you live in? Currently….St. Maarten in the eastern Caribbean. 4. How did you and FI Meet?FI and I meet in 2000 while working together at Publix. He had just started as a cashier and I was a bagger at the time, when I laid my eyes on him I didn’t want to take them off. I was dating someone at the time when we met, but shortly after my relationship ended with the other guy. FI was there for me to listen to my situation and was def. an awesome person to lean on. I will never forget it was aisle 4 (paper goods haha. ) Where we talked and then started to like each other.5. How long have you been together?9 years6. Do you live together? Why or why not?Yes, we have since 2004 when we moved to Orlando we decided we would move in together.7. How did FI propose?Well, I kind of feel like I ruined where and how he wanted to do it. But….in December 2006 we went to NYC for a little vacay for like 4 days. We flew in on a Thursday, booked our hotel and went around the city. We wanted to do dinner at Tavern on the green but could not because they were booked, so we went to dinner at an excellent steakhouse. We had drinks and a bottle of wine and dinner. Afterwards we headed to the Rockefeller Center to go atop of The Rock. We had a friend who worked at the Rockefeller center and he got us up there for free. Anyways, so we went up and started looking around, it was freezing and Kevin kept saying come look at this lace, look here lace, but stupid me drank to much at dinner I needed to pee, well needless to say I said I need to go pee my bladder is going to explode lol. Sooooo we had to go back down about 80 flights so I could go. =( Later on in the night we went to some pubs and enjoyed the rest of the night, and got back to the hotel and then he got on his knee and asked me to marry him. I looked at him and laughed saying your joking. When he wasn’t I immediately said yes and all the rest cried, laughed, hugged and kissed. He later told me he wanted to do it on top of the rock, and that’s why I say I feel like I ruined it. I had no clue he was going to propose since I knew our intentions for school, but he sure surprised me. Oh and btw the next night we were able to make reservation at tavern on the green. (sorry long)8. How long of an engagement are you having/did you have? Why?It will be 3-½ yrs. Needed money to have the wedding. No rush since we both were and are still in school.9. Favorite wedding vendor so far? Hmmm, I like them all so far, but def. would have to say my venue, they have been awesome to work with so far, and I am getting a lot for my money. and my photog, im excited to see how our e-pics turn out. 10. Biggest piece of wedding advice you can share so far?Do your research and meet with multiple vendors before deciding who you want. You will always second-guess yourself and its normal. I do a lot. Follow your gut and instincts with things too. This is advice I was given – take the time to look at all the work you put into your wedding day. You did put numerous hours into and take a look at it before people are in there. 11. What do you do for a career? What does FI do?We currently are both still in school, but he will be a doctor. (He’s in his 2nd yr of medical school.) and I am finishing my masters, but hope to start law school one day. But no career right now for me but I def. will do something in law when I get back to the states. Although before moving to the islands I worked for Bare Escentuals in the Florida mall in Orlando, if we didn’t move out here I would probably still be there. 12. Do you think you could be/will ever be a stay at home mama?Nah don’t think so. I love my independence and think I would go crazy being at home all the time. I love working and my interactions with others. I am a very outgoing person. 13. Do you want children? Any potential names yet?Yes, 2 to 3. Some names in mind nothing set in stone. For a boy I love Adrian Michael, and Nicholas. For girls I love Eva, Adriana, Jayde, Aubrey, Khloe, and Kirsten. 14. Do you have any pets? Names?Yes, 2 cats, Kahlua and Tipsy, and one American Bulldog named Hailey15. Do you have any siblings?I have a younger brother Chris, and I also have an older half sister Delilah and half brother Shayne.16. What is your favorite food?Italian and Spanish food. 17. What is your favorite movie? I have so many fav. Movies, but for some I love the notebook, wedding crashers, four Christmas’s and so many more. 18. What is your favorite drink? (Alcohol and Non-Alcohol)Wine, Vodka/red bull, crown and ginger. Non-alcoholic-iced tea, water, crystal light19. What is the hardest part of wedding plans for you?Planning from the islands, not being able to just get in a car and go check things out that I have to wait till I come home to do anything. And making some decisions. 20. Where are you honeymooning?Haven’t decided yet, but probably a Mediterranean Cruise21. What is the best thing you learned on The Knot?Ive learned so much, especially that friends can be made from online forums. =) Seriously I don’t know what I would do without the knot and all the advice everyone and everything has given me. One thing too is you can have an absolute gorgeous wedding with whatever budget you have!22. What's one city you would love to live in for a year?NYC, or LA23. What do you love most about your FI? I love everything about him. He is my best friend. He knows how to make me smile all the time even when Im upset. He’s so caring and unconditionally lovable. He has an awesome personality and sense of humor. I love his smile and eyes and can look at him all day. =) I truly cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with him. 24. If you have an extra $5000 to put towards your wedding only, what would you spend it on? Longer reception, 2nd photog, or even just to pay down the balance already, or our honeymoon25. What is one silly thing about you?I hate dirty windshields, and hate when people allow their dogs to lick their skin. ewww, and I always speak my opinion on things or tell someone how it is and how i feel.26. What Knottie wedding would you love to attend? Omg, all of them! Everyone’s ideas are amazing and everyone is going to or already had a gorgeous wedding. But I def. would love to go to Amy’s, Alissa, Jaime, Jen, Jillian, Sara, Tess, the list can go on and on.27. What is something you learned from The Knot that you never heard of prior? Ive learned so much, and I am so grateful for it all, but some I would say are Valet tags, candy bar, lots and lots of DIY things and I am sure there are more.28. What other Knottie boards do you visit?I venture over to the central Florida boards b/c my photog is in Melbourne so I always like to see who uses them. 29. Describe yourself in 3 words. Outgoing, caring, and loving30. What else do you want to share?? I just want to truly thank everyone for all your help with this planning process and the support you all have given me for my BIL. Thank you so much. =)

    Lacey, what's your e-mail? I'll send you the link to the one they went on. They LOVED it and there were great shore excursions. It leaves out of Barcelona and I also know a great transportation and day tour company there that can help you. They're very reliable and their prices are good.

    Loved learning about you! I love your venue too! Both the church and Frenchman's are right around the corner from FFIL and I have always thought they would be such beautiful places to get married!!

    Lacy-you sound like just the sweetest girl. I love how you two met and your proposal. He's did great surprising you like that! I thought of the Michael Buble song where he's in the grocery store with the girl. Have you seen that video? I forgot the name of that song, but it's totally you guys!

    Thank you all. You all can come visit me, =) I love visitors.Tiffany-do you have an idea where you wanna stay?Jaime-we decided St. Maarten b/c FI didn’t think he would be accepted in the states, so he just applied here, there are quite a few med. Schools in the islands that are all accredited in the states, so we decided a little bit more Americanized would be better and that’s St. Maarten lol.Andrea, thanks. Where does your FFIL live? Yeah both are gorgeous places and I cant wait. Joanne-Thanks, no I never heard of the song, but if you remember the name let me know.Jen- thanks girl.
