Youre up!

hatroopes · January 2011

I realize I never officially introduced myself on this board, so I'll do that now. I have the proposal story in my bio, but we started dating December of 2007 and engaged in May 2010. We met at a mall (of all places) in Atlanta...it started out long-distance - he lived in FL and I in GA. I moved to FL briefly to be with him, but FL wasn't for me and I really missed my family, so we knew we would eventually relocate back to Atl. I graduated with my MPH in May 2010 and thankfully I got a job in Atl, so I moved back to Atl in October of last year. FI still lives in FL, but will be relocating to join me here as soon as he finds a job (hopefully REALLY SOON). So here we are now, planning a wedding for Oct 22. I still have a lot to get done, but taking it one day at a time

What is the biggest challenge of having a LD relationship?

hatroopes · January 2011

I would say the physical distance, not seeing him as often as I would like. We communicate all the time of course, but it's not the same, especially with planning this wedding. I can't wait for him to join me!

do you plan on having a big wedding party or would you like to keep it small with a few people?

hatroopes · January 2011

Right now, there are 8 BM, 8 GM, 2 FG and 2 PB. I'm thinking of reducing the BM to 6, but FI wants to keep his 8 GM and I want an even number on both sides, so we'll see.

Hello Date Twin!
What is one thing you wish you could have for your wedding but can't?

What school did you graduate with your MPH from? My FI is working on his now at Emory and he works at CDC...

</div><div>Right now, its between up-lighting and chiavari chairs. My venue provides chair covers, but I loooove chiavari chairs (cheapest rental I've found so far is $5.95/chair). I wish I could get both, but one of those items has to give :(</div>

<div>I graduated from MCG - Medical College of Georgia in Augusta. I'm so jealous of your FI - I always wanted to work at the CDC and Emory is a really great school. Right now, I work as an implementation analyst/consultant implementing doc-imaging software in hospitals. Good luck to him <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /></div>
