    Name: Britt
    Age: 25
    St Pattys Day plans?: Actually I am driving 6 hours to my sisters with a couple of my bridesmaids for a dress fitting, so no actual St Pattys Day type plans
    Favourite offbeat wedding detail: My dress - I LOVE it!!!! Its my mothers dress from when she got married in the 80s, but my sister is a fashion designer and changing it up for me. She's cutting it down to a sweetheart neckline, backless and strapless so it will show off my tattoo on my back (the inspiration of my wedding) and then she's adding the black detailing including black beading, black sash, black crinoline actually sewn into the dress.
    Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: Tea, especially green tea!
    What do you do for a living?: I currently have a day job and then my long term career just to save up for the wedding, as does FI. My day job is working in home/auto insurance. My career is the business FI and I own in informational marketting and leadership development, or the more popular 'catch phrase' these days, Life Coaching.
    Favourite Epic/Wedding Pic/Pic of you and FI: I have a couple fav Epic, but posted one in my mod intro post, so I'll post a different one here

    Name: Kat

    Age: 29

    Favourite offbeat wedding detail: everything (we really don't have even one thing "nomal")!!! But if I had to choose, it's the inevitable high five after "I do". No, it's not planned, but I can guarantee one of use will do it in appropriate Borat style...

    Edit: I told a porkie here! I'm having flowers, I guess that's normal. All hot pink to make a statement (colours are white [me and my dress], navy [FI's suit, my shoes and MoH's dress] and hot pink/fuschia [mine and MoH flowers]).

    Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: Tea - Earl Grey!

    What do you do for a living?: Corporate lifestyle manager (or simply - corporate concierge) and two own ventures: events planning and online wedding shop.

    Favourite Epic/Wedding Pic/Pic of you and FI: We don't have many photos together as we're both rather unphotogenic! But it'd be one of our feet in bed (with mine on top of his).

    StephanieM22 - sugar gliders FTW!

    St Pattys Day plans?: played mom...took my nephew (who I have custody of until at least the end of the year) on a play date!!! Hahahaha, at least we both wore green!
    Favourite offbeat wedding detail: My wedding is more "non-traditional" then offbeat...throwing a lot of tradition out the window but it will look and feel like a casual wedding. Favorite detail...probably either wearing DC's or having pinatas at the reception.
    Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: All of the above!!!
    What do you do for a living?: Social Work Student
    Favourite Epic/Wedding Pic/Pic of you and FI: There are too many favorites, but this is the one i think is the funnest! (sorry for the bad quality I only have the preview pictures stored, the rest are on a disk somewhere)

    Name: gmcr78

    Age: 33 (for one more day, my birthday is tomorrow!)

    Favourite offbeat wedding detail: We're having a traditional Catholic church/ballroom reception wedding, but on Day of the Dead. We're skipping a lot of the annoying traditional reception stuff, like the dances (except for ours), the bouquet/garter toss, head table/sweetheart table (we're sitting with our families and the WP is going to be seated with their dates and friends).  I'm walking down the aisle alone.  Also we're tying in some fun elements of DOTD without it becoming a theme, just the ring bearer box, cake topper, and small favor.

    Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: All, please

    What do you do for a living?: Marketing, when I'm not glued to TK

    Favourite Epic/Wedding Pic/Pic of you and FI: Our friend was up in a tree wearing camo secretly taking pics of us during the proposal, so those are hilarious!

    *Edited b/c I apparently don't know how old I am

    Age: 31 (for another week, my birthday's April 1st!)
    St Pattys Day plans?: We stayed home, did yard work, watched Netflix, and made pizza
    Favourite offbeat wedding detail: We're getting married on a Wed, our fifth anniversary!
    Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: Tea, I don't drink coffee and rarely drink hot chocolate although it is awesome (it needs to be vegan so it's expensive and rare, lol)
    What do you do for a living?: I'm a Teacher Assistant at a preschool for special needs kids; I currently have a 1:1 with four-year-old girl with Down's Syndrome. She's incredibly stubborn but awesome.
    Favourite Epic/Wedding Pic/Pic of you and FI: This is us at a concert about two years ago. Our car had just broken down, we were effectively stranded in Philly, and we were still okay. Pretty much sums this whole thing up...
