Hello to all my past, present, and future Disney Brides. I have decided that I will finally start a PJ (Mainly because if I dont, I will drive my family/DH crazy before the wedding).
About us:
I am originally from Miami, FL and my parents are Cuban. I moved to Birmingham, AL (my dad had a job offer) kicking and screaming (4 years ago) but as luck has it, I met the love of my life.
Ben is originally from Mobile, AL but decided to move to Birmingham, AL for college.
We are both graduating in May 2011 with a degree in Biology and plan on pursuing a career in Dentistry.
How we met:
We met our freshman year at the University of Alabama in Birmingham. Ben was really good at General Chemistry and would tell his friend, I will only tutor you if you bring me girls. So his friend did what he was told and brought not 1, not 2, but 3 girls to a tutoring session.
Ben and I hit it off from the first day we met and have been inseparable ever since.
The Proposal:
My brother had lent us his car and Ben was taking it back to my parents house (we were living in an apartment at the time). So he was on his way back because my brother decided he didnt need the car yet and I was talking to him on the phone when all of a sudden he said he had to go. He caught me off guard. I was in my pajamas and I was crying because I thought he had gotten into a car accident (Im a worry wart and I always imagine the worst). He didn't answer the phone, not even once, which is not typical Ben. When he got to the apartment, I was inconsolable and I was just glad to see he was alive and he was standing on one knee proposing... It took me a while to realize what was going on, but when I did, I said YES! He was supposed to propose later that night at Flemings for his birthday dinner but I wouldnt have it any other way! =)
Our Wedding Plans (so far):
My parents are going to pay for the wedding (They told me they want me to have the wedding they never did).
My wedding will be February 4th 2012 at the WP. The pre-reception will be in the White Hall Room & Patio. The reception will be in a GF Ballroom. Our estimated guest count is 100.
I want to have a romantic fairytale wedding. My colors are navy blue or royal blue or purple (not sure yet), Ivory, with blush accents.
