    Are you trying to shape up to get into the dress? Most definitely! My goal is to lose a bunch of weight, but I need to get started now if I want to meet my goal.
    Colour choices/inspiration? Fun and tropical. Aqua and orange.
    How long have you been engaged/together? We have been together for 5 years, got engaged on our 4 year anniversary.

    What's your snack food of choice? Everything! I love Cheetos, and those 100 calorie snack packs!
    What was the last piece of music you listened to? Rod Stewart- My Heart Can't Tell You No, =)
    Where would you go on your dream vacation? Hmm, either Hawaii, or back to London.
    Favourite tv show/movie? TV Shows include Desperate Housewives, Big Bang Theory, Vampire Diaries, One Tree Hill, The Office, House.

    Level Four - Would you rather...

    ... have porn music play every time you walk down the street or a gong go off every time you had an orgasm? Why? Haha, well, if the gong went off everytime then I would probably be classically conditioned, and then be afraid to because I knew it was coming. And, I don't walk down streets alot. So, I guess the porn music, even though I wouldn't really want either of those. =)

    Name: Lauren
    Wedding date: 5th of December 2010
    Location: private estate on Kealakekua Bay, Big Island

    Level Two - More wedding details

    Are you trying to shape up to get into the dress? a little - I have the dress and it fits me pretty much perfectly now - I'd like to tone up and loose some wobble between now and December (especially for wearing bikinis on the honeymoon!)
    Colour choices/inspiration? aqua / tiffany blue, with hot red and pearl accents :)  it's the ocean, with some lava :)
    How long have you been engaged/together?

    Level Three - All about You!

    What's your snack food of choice?  We have these chips here in Australia called Grainwaves - I ate almost a whole bag on the weekend (not helping your wobbly bits, Lauren!)  Chips in general.  Pringles, the whole shebang.
    What was the last piece of music you listened to? the last CD I played was Lily Allen.
    Where would you go on your dream vacation? everywhere.  cruise the Med, visit family in Europe, travel around Australia, see Canada and the US, volunteer in South America / Nepal... (FI is a travel agent - so tempting!)
    Favourite tv show/movie? I loved Empire Records as a teen.  I like Master Chef here and Summer Heights High (you probably don't know these either...)  Big Bang Theory always makes me laugh.

    Level Four - Would you rather...

    ... have porn music play every time you walk down the street or a gong go off every time you had an orgasm? Why?  The music - I obviously walk more often, so I reckon it would just fade into the background like traffic noise after a bit.

    Level One - The Basics

    Name:  Michelle
    Wedding date: July 7 2010
    Location:  We're going to try for Secret Beach on Maui, hoping it's not too crowded

    Level Two - More wedding details

    Are you trying to shape up to get into the dress?  Yes!  We have started a new workout routine, and I'm doing a lot more weights to tone up my arms and back so the strapless dress doesn't look too bad.
    Colour choices/inspiration?  I guess my accent color is hot pink...shoes, my bouquet and my nailpolish....small wedding, didn't really need to pick colors.
    How long have you been engaged/together?  Over 8 years together and engaged for 3 of those...I've lost track.  We have reasons though....masters program to finish, jobs to find, etc.  What can I say...we're slow in doing things.

    Level Three - All about You!

    What's your snack food of choice?  Pickles
    What was the last piece of music you listened to?  some Sepultura
    Where would you go on your dream vacation?  Europe...for a year :)
    Favourite tv show/movie?  24 is our favorite show and Casino is my favorite movie

    Level Four - Would you rather...

    ... have porn music play every time you walk down the street or a gong go off every time you had an orgasm? Why?  Both sound equally entertaining but I think if I had porn music play every time I walked down the street it would really freak people out...and that might be fun :)

    Alyson, you're too funny! 
    Don't worry Lauren, I know what you're talking about :)


    Level One - The Basics

    Name:  Brittana 
    Wedding date: December 12, 2010
    Location:  Sugarman Estate & Afterparty TBD

    Level Two - More wedding details

    Are you trying to shape up to get into the dress?  Yes!  But my self-discipline is very poor.  I've lost 10 lbs so far, and would like to lose another 10 before my first dress fitting in 3 1/2 months.
    Colour choices/inspiration?  Coral (I love!), and then it was up to FI.  We went around the house holding random colored objects against my coral dress. 
    How long have you been engaged/together?  Together for almost 3 years (in September).  Engaged since January 14th, so 4 months.

    Level Three - All about You!

    What's your snack food of choice?  My imported boxes of American food: goldfish & wheat thins.  Apples are always high on the list too.
    What was the last piece of music you listened to?  whatever was on the radio.
    Where would you go on your dream vacation?  FI & I just like going anywhere new.  Oh, but at this point, the vacation that I want and probably won't get for years is to Universal Studios in Florida to see the new Harry Potter park Embarassed
    Favourite tv show/movie?  I watch these online because I'm too impatient for them to come out in Australia: Greek, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters.
    The new Robin Hood is pretty good--plus I can joke that I'm marrying Russel Crowe.

    Level Four - Would you rather...

    ... have porn music play every time you walk down the street or a gong go off every time you had an orgasm? Why?  I like the idea of an additional celebration with the big O, sounds entertaining.

    Thanks Brittana!  gald to know someone else 'gets it'.  I see you're having a December wedding too - I don't think I've seen you on the December 2010 board though... The girls there are lovely too :)

    I forgot to answer the how long have you been together / engaged one...

    we've been together for over 9 years now, and we would have been engaged exactly 2 years on our wedding day in December :)
