    7.  What are your hobbies?

    8.  Why a winter wedding?
    Because I love winter and always have. My FI and I love to snow ski and are planning to ski at Park City, Utah for our honeymoon. We have never skied out west so this is important for us. Also, we knew we would be able to save some money having a winter wedding. Oh and lastly, we didn't want to compete with other couple's date. We are fairly certain none of our family or friends will have another wedding to attend on 1-21-12.

    8.  Why a winter wedding? we're both hot people by nature, we didnt want to be two big sweaty messes! and the cost! I not only booked 18 months out to save but chose the off season and right after holidays to save, they will still have holiday decor up (minimal!) and will have just buffed floors, painted and cleaned rugs. I also am a huge xmas person, but FI is not, so we went with after the holidays so i can still sort of use influences of holidays without overkill.

    6. Be honest, are you a bridezilla, discuss.  If not, tell us about your groomzilla!
    I don't think I'm a bridezilla, though I will admit a few weeks ago I just about said forget the whole big wedding and dang near begged FI to look at Vegas wedding spots (I've always wanted to get married in Vegas). He agreed we could day trip to Vegas and take a look that weekend but I knew the chapels wouldn't be as pretty as our current venue so I told him no, that we can just stay with what we have. But most of the time he and I are very much just going with the flow of things.
    7.  What are your hobbies?
    I love being outside and doing what tiny bit of gardening apartment living lets me do. I love to read a good book , my reading tastes vary. I'd love to get back into horseback riding again!
    8.  Why a winter wedding?
    I'll admit that most of it had to do with cost. I looked up the 3 cheapest wedding months (March, January, February) and went from there. I ruled out March because it seemed too far away at the time (14 months) and then quickly ruled out February because its my birthday month and Valentines. So we settled on January. When picking the actual date we had to work around testing time for FIs work to make sure he would be able to take a week off. We were going to originally plan for Sat the 28th but money talked and we went with Friday because it made the venue even less money.
