Hello Everybody! I've been hanging around here for a couple weeks, so I figured I'd better introduce myself to everyone...
I am 25 years old, from Pittsburgh, PA. I was born in Miami Florida, and then when I was still a baby we moved to Miramar, Florida. When I was little, we used to go to Disney World probably almost every year! I was ALWAYS a huge fan! In 1990, we moved to Pittsburgh and I've been here since. I am now working at a law firm as a paralegal, and I spend my free time volunteering at an animal shelter (that's definitely the more rewarding of the 2) in the time since we moved, I went to Disney one time... I believe it was around 1997... So I'm overdue for a trip back!!
My fiancé, Matthew, is 24 years old. He was a tattoo artist for the past 5 years, but last month he finally got a job in what he has a degree in... Architectural Drafting. He's NEVER been to Disney, so he doesn't quite get the MAGIC of Disney! He's lived in Pittsburgh his whole life. At first he wasn't too big on the idea of a Disney Wedding, but once he realized how important it was to me, he decided to give in!
Matt and I met back in the summer of 2006. I was out with a friend of mine, and she introduced me to the friends of a guy that she was seeing at the time... one of these friends being Matt! I must say, that at first I thought Matt was VERY cute, but I had just gotten out of another long relationship so I just wasn't interested. He gave me his number and I did called him, but whenever he would call me back, I would just blow him off... Finally a few weeks later, I gave in and went out with him, and since then we've been together every single day!
We got our own place in September of 2007, and we adopted a puppy named Oliver who is our baby! He's a little Chihuahua mix, and he's treated like the king of the house!
We got engaged of December of 2007! Matt and I planned a trip to NYC to do some shopping, sightseeing, and we went to see The Rockette's Christmas Spectacular and How the Grinch Stole Christmas on Broadway (I highly recommend both)! On the first night there, we went on a carriage ride through Central Park... and that's where he gave me my beautiful ring!! It was perfect!!
Sooo... here we are today... Planning a trip to Walt Disney World in April of 2009 to get married!!
I cannot wait!! We are going to do the Escape Wedding, and I'm pretty sure we'll have close to the max of 18 people coming. We're going to have the ceremony at Sea Breeze Point, because I LOVE that it's outside, but it's still somewhat covered. From the pics I saw, it looks like a beautiful area! Also, from reading everyone's recommendations, we're going to go with Randy Chapman for the photography!!! I'm so glad I found this board, because there's no way I would have found him on my own!
I will update everyone as I know more, but I've still got a long way to go!
P.S. How do I post pics on here????
... NEVERMIND, I figured it out

at the cost of a Pittsburgh wedding!
I've always wanted to go to that though, we're both huge country music fans!! It was just a concert out at the Post Gazette Pavilion!
Oliver is so cute!
