June 2013 Weddings

New here :-)

Thought I'd come say hello!! j and I got engaged on Christmas Eve 2011. And we're all set for June 9th in Wrightwood Ca.

j and I are dead set on the "no stress wedding planning" motto. We're paying for it ourselves and have accepted we set our own pace. The goal has been to book something and pay for it in full so its 1 less thing off our plate. not always easy but somehow its all working out. definately makes us both thankful for overtime. I had to take
2 entire months off from planning as i had to study for my credentialling exam but now were back and at it. Therefore were determined to stay ahead of the game. Invites are sitting on the table waiting to be addressed. The only thing we haven't started is the bridesmaid dresses... It's proved trying.

It's a 2nd wedding for both of us and I have 3 children from my 1st marriage.

Look forward to meeting you all and getting to know you!

  • That's awesome! Welcome aboard! Sounds like you have a handle on things and you're trucking along nicely. There are sticky's at the top that you can fill in for fun if you want to! :-D I hope you find your bridesmaid dresses soon and can get them ordered.  We are still working on invitations. We're actually waiting on a sample in the mail, and if that's the one we'll be ordering sometime this month! 

    Happy Planning!

  • Thank you for the warm welcome. Making a trip to the beach area soon for dresses. We just can't find something we both love. I want to like it but she has to LOVE it bc its her dress even though I'm paying for it. Her 10 yr old is my jr bridesmaid ('my 8 yr old son is a groomsman) so she gets a say in all her stuff too. I want this to be a fun exciting time for all of us. Again thank u for the warm welcome I look forward to getting to know u all better
  • Welcome to the board! Hope the bridesmaid dress shopping goes fun, I haven't started on our either if that makes you feel any better. :) My MOH just had a baby about a month ago, so I'm giving her some time before she has to worry about dress shopping.
