Wedding Bio Is Done!
OK so I have been putting this off for weeks, but I finally got our wedding planning site completed! I can't figure out how to make the site a live link in my TK signature, but here it is!
ETA: I finally figured out that "clickable link" thing! LOL

[QUOTE]Love it! My fi proposed at Fountain Square, so that place will always have a special place in our hearts! Happy Planning!

<div>That is so sweet Mahoganieyes! What a special memory - I love Fountain Square, it's so beautiful there at night. Our guests are staying at the Westin, so they'll have a view of the square - we are staying there too...can't wait! Do you have a planning bio?</div>

[QUOTE]Yes, I was eagerly anticipating your planning bio because you seem to have great ideas so I can't wait to see how your wedding develops. Yes, I was going to ask if you planned on watching Sylvester tomorrow night. I watched a special on like VH1 about his life, he/she's a pretty interesting...um...person. LOL. Yeah that is a pretty good rate for a trip to Costa Rica. I'm actually not very crafty myself, but I'm going to give it a shot because I cannot afford to pay for all of those lil' odds and ins.

<div>Thanks Tam - that means a lot coming from you, b/c you have awesome ideas! I think I may end up DIY-ing some little stuff as we get closer to the wedding. Right now I have waaaaaay too much going on to take any projects on...but maybe later this year I'll feel up to trying something. </div><div>
</div><div>We originally were looking at South Africa or Australia for our honeymoon, but both of those destinations were way too expensive for us so Costa Rica was our 3rd choice. Also, we both have lots of frequent flier points with Delta, so we plan to use those - our airfare will be free! Gotta save wherever we can! <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif" border="0" alt="Laughing" title="Laughing" /></div>
[QUOTE]Cute, Im going to do a new one, after I take these engagement pics...
Posted by desi2002[/QUOTE]
<div>Thanks Desi! Can't wait to see yours and your e-pics! I don't know when we're getting ours, but I think it needs to be after I've moved to Cincinnati this summer, found a suitable hairstylist there, etc. </div>

</div><div>Girl...all I can say is WOW! You have so many great ideas and info on your site! I love your colors, they are similar to mine except you have chosen your bright color already (loving the purple shoes by the way!!). </div><div>
</div><div>I love that you have a pic of FI proposing by the fountain...that was smart of him to think about the best way to capture the moment! Congratulations, I am so happy for you all. Maybe we can plan a Cincy AAW meet up when I move there! </div>
[QUOTE]suitable hairstylists are a MUST HAVE.
Posted by desi2002[/QUOTE]
<div>Girl to be honest that is one of the things I am most stressed about. I have an UNBELIEVABLE hair stylist here in Atlanta ... and I just don't think I'll find someone else that good in Cincinnati! But I'm trying to stay positive...we'll see. I have natural hair and it's thick so I can only deal w/ somebody with skills! LOL</div>

Thank You!<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" /> I'm still debating on the shoes, everyday I see something else. Like Desi, I will be updating my planning site with professional e-pics later this fall. Can't wait to take those! Yeah, we can have a Cincy AAW GTG!

Awwww Congratulations on completing your planning bio. It was nicely done and your color scheme is on point. I just hope you be able to decide on the final color, because you have so many options. As far as fountain square goes it is absolutely a beautiful place and you have done a great job my securing the Westin. Your guest will have some much fun, plus it's in the summer time.
BTW: With so many Ohio Brides on here we should look at having a GTG.
R.S.V.P Deadline April 30th!!! SMH!

[QUOTE]@ Cincy - I love the song you and your FI chose. It was my first time hearing it, but it has such a loving and familiar sound that I can totally get why you both recognized it as "your song"...your wedding plans sound great. I'm stuck on the pops of color to add to my gray palette as well. Good luck with deciding. There are so many options...I've changed my mind at least six times already and am still unsure.
Posted by eagles347[/QUOTE]
<div>Thanks Eagles! Yes, it was almost like the song was familiar and we'd heard it before - even though we hadn't. It struck a chord inside of both of us right away. </div><div>
</div><div>There are SO SO SO many options for the pop of color - it's crazy! We were going with orange, then switched to cafe au lait to stay more neutral and now we're back to a big question mark???? So we'll see how it turns out - luckily I'm not planning on incorporating the accent color into many aspects of the wedding so it won't hold up my planning. </div>

<div>Thanks PB! I am so happy to be done with that bio, it was one of those things hanging over my head (I have a lot of those things these days - LOL). </div><div>
</div><div>I am so in love with Fountain Square. We are very excited about the Westin, I can't even tell you. The rooms are awesome and we were able to negotiate a great rate for our guests. We plan to stay there on our wedding night also. </div><div>
</div><div>We absolutely need to have an Ohio AAW Knottie GTG! Mahoganieyes and I were writing about that earlier today. Once I move to Cincy in the summer, I will definitely be down for it! </div>

<div>Thanks girl! All the ladies here on the AAW board have really helped me solidify my ideas in my mind so I can actually bring them to fruition! <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>
