in June 2013 Weddings
Hi all! I've been lurking a bit on a few boards and this one seems great so I thought I'd jump in! I enjoyed the monthly signature (and the directions on how to do it)! It's nice to be able to share the excitement with other brides because I know I am probably driving my friends and family crazy any time I mention planning!

FI and I met in college and have been dating since '08. I adopted my cousin six years ago, so we have a 9year old and FI is an amazing father to him! We are all excited for the wedding and FI official adoption afterwards! So if I mention our son, that's the little guy I'm talking about!

We have a June 22 wedding because it seems like a nice time of the year and is not too crowded with other holidays and birthdays for us. Why did you all choose June? Just curious :)

I look forward to getting to know all of you girls!

    Welcome and Congratulations!!!
    FI and I chose June 2, 2013, because he is still in school and that's when he will be finished (hopefully, if not, he has a break right around then).

    Welcome and congrats! I am also planning to get married on June 22, 2013. FI and I chose June 22, 2013 because he asked me to marry him on June 22, 2012. It just so happened to land on a Saturday. :) I will be finished with school for the summer until August and FI has had good luck with getting vacation time in June. We were thinking about a Saturday in July but it just didn't feel right.

    Welcome and congrats! The story about adopting your cousin is so sweet.

    I actually wanted October, but FI insisted on May or June so I settled. We were hung up on picking between June 1 or May 25 and picked the 1st because our venue hosts the National Trout Fish Derby on Memorial day weekend. And the next town over about three minutes away is the founding town of Memorial Day and their celebration is intense. The amount of people who come into our town that weekend is overwhelming, so we picked a low key weekend. That's just how it is when you live in a vacation town though =P

    Hi and welcome!! I'm also a June 22nd girl. We chose our date because we knew we wanted an outdoor summer wedding, but July and August are brutal here. My fianc is a teacher, so we wanted to make sure he was out of school by the time of the wedding and then allowing for a week's worth of snow make up days, we were left with the 22nd or the 29th. Putting that many restrictions on it makes it easy to narrow down what date you want, haha.

    Hi and welcome, glad you joined us! We are getting married June 29th. I am on LI, and it is soooooo hard to get a teaching job here, but that is ultimately what I want to do. So I picked June 29th because I knew I would be off from work then. Originally, I wanted August 9h, 2013, because that would be FI and I's 9 year anniversary, but my dad really talked me out of it. He was like "it's so hot and humid, it's hurricane season, people will be away on vacation, blah, blah, blah. Pus, he said to me "everyone wants to be a June Bride" and so I agreed with him that June was a really nice month, I have a chance of getting a little cooler day, and that's how we picked. :) I'm really happy with the date though, plus I got to meet all the lovely ladies on this board :)

    Hello and welcome to the board! Originally we wanter to have our wedding in April, but FI is finishing his bachelor's next year, so we've figured it doesn't make sense for him to get all crazy busy with wedding stuff so close to the finals. Thus we've moved our wedding to June. :)

    Hi and welcome!

    We chose June because we wanted a outdoor spring wedding. I was originially thinking late May but the prices were the same May or June and we're both still in school in May so June it was. The 8th was just an open Saturday that we agreed sounded good. It's also almost exactly 6 months from our dating anniversary.

    Hi and welcome! I originally wanted a September or October wedding, but that coincides with our college football seasons tickets, so FI wasnt having it. We were thinking about May, but too many family birthdays, and July is too hot here, I am also getting married June 22.

    Hi and Welcome..
    Your story sounds so nice and your FI  sounds like a great guy, especially taking on the rolls of being a father. blessings to both of you... Good things will def come to you marriage. Adoption is a big responsibility..

    Our wedding date is June 15. We just mentioned how we both wanted a June wedding and we didn't want to interfere with Memorial day or the 4th of July, so we just picked Mid June. No significance..

    So... What are your colors?

    Your dad sounds adorable! I agree about August being too hot. That's what we were thinking when deciding on a date. However, yesterday it was over 100* here!

    Posted by keysmit[/QUOTE]

    I'd like to hear back from other brides on that as well! So far, we were thinking a blush pink and tan, but we want to add more color. Maybe pastels as accent colors, but we don't want to look too Easter-ish. Also FI likes coral.

    What are your colors?
    <strong>
    And btw, thank you everyone for the warm welcome and I can't wait to hear more about you all!</strong>

    We went back and forth on our month for a while. We wanted May because that's our dating anniversary. However, it was going to be difficult to find an open weekend for all my fraternity brothers who will still be in school. We decided to go to summer so we wouldn't have to worry about school schedules and figured July and August were too hot because we wanted an outdoor wedding (which is not what we're doing now). June is already pretty full of birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays so we picked the 8th because it's not claimed yet. :)

    Our colors are blue, purple, and white.
