I am relatively inexperienced as far as this forum posting media...so I will do my best.
My name is Melinda and Brian is my intended. We met on July 20, 2011 and by October 2011 figured out we should probably get married. "Oh, so quick" we thought everyone would say. Well, apparently like us, they figured two adults in their 40's with three kids between them should know what they should be looking for in a mate and everyone is jumping on board for a chance to share in our Fairy Tale Wedding.
Technically, Brian and I are still not engaged. Since we definately wanted to be married next summer we went ahead with our DFTW wedding planning. I originally contacted DWTF on September 30, 2011.
I was assigned Bill Barchik as my sales manager. He was great and even squeezed me in for a site visit during my visit to the Food and Wine Festival. The visit turned my "beach" wedding into the Wedding Pavillion and Whitehall Room reception...and a return to my wedding dreams of my youth. All romance!
Our LOA was signed and deposit made by November 19, 2011. About two weeks later our annual passes arrived in the mail...that's the best part.
Went gown shopping sometime around then...what a blur...and found "the dress!" Yes I cried!! Its even a Disney dress, but not one I originally thought I would like.
Brian met my family for the first time at Thanksgiving 2011...
One early decision we were able to finally agree upon is pink and black with hints of silver for the wedding colors.
After all this wedding planning it life became about getting ready for Christmas and moving Brian and his boys into my house.
Most recent activity includes, setting up facebook website for friends and relatives, combing passporters' book on disney weddings for information.
Wedding purchases to date are: wedding invitations (Michael's), serving set (Vera Wang), two black frames for parent wedding pictures. I have also started formatting our Etsy Fast Pass save the dates.
My birthday is this weekend and we will be doing a weekend away. The best part is we will be making all of those decision necessary for the wedding planning session scheudled on February 27th. If anyone has any suggestions feel free to let me know.
Someday soon, I will get engaged for real...
