Ive been reading the board so much over the past year and it has given me such great ideas! Im such a procrastinator I figure if I start a pj now, I MAY get some of the details in here before the actual wedding. Ill try to keep it updated, but its busy season at work, so no promises!!!
And so it begins .
Me: Stacey, 23, Benefits Coordinator, huge Disney fan (thanks mom & dad
)
DF: Bruce, 25, LMSW, unaware that he too is about to become a huge Disney fan!
How we met:
It was purely coincidence actually. I was going to a community college, living at home and working part time. A friend of mine that I met at work was friends with DF, one night at her house we decided it would be a super great idea to start instant messaging randoms on her buddy list, I happened to pick DFs screenname! We chatted online back in forth for a couple months, but he went to school in a different city so it kind of stayed like that. Then one day a few months later, I was supposed to work that night, but scheduling got mucked up and I got there and wasnt needed, I gave my friend a call, she was meeting a bunch of people out at dinner, so I tagged along. And there it was ladies and gentlemen, as romantic as it gets, we met in the Applebees parking lot after we both tripped getting out of our cars see it was meant to be! This was May, and we didnt talk much after that until I went away to school. Then we decided, wow, now that we are 300 miles apart instead of 60, it would be an EXCELLENT idea if we started dating,
FABULOUS. And so it went, for the next two years practically every weekend was spent making the 3.5 hour trek back and forth on the beautiful scenic NYS Thruway 
(ha). I graduated in 2005 and moved slightly closer (still a good 1.5 hours away however) so this continued for another year. Then finally he finished grad school and we landed in the same city!
The proposal:
Being ever the romantic and nice kid he is, DF knew I was itching to get engaged, so he kept saying things like hey will you marry me?.... Good, just checking For a good 6 months or so, I was NOT a happy camper. Then on October 23, he woke me up and said, will you marry me, I proceeded to smack him (not hard!), call him mean, and turn over to go back to sleep. Then he told me he was serious .
Ooooops! Ah thats us, ever the romantic couple!
The Wedding:
June 7, 2008
Clarion Riverside Hotel
The Players:
MOH: LeAnn (sister of the bride)
BM: Debbie (cousin of the bride)
BM: Brianne (cousin of the groom)
BM: Cheryl (friend of the bride)
Best Man: Still up in the air?
GM: Justin (Brother of the groom)
GM: Jonathan (cousin of the groom)
GM: Joe (friend of the bride & groom)
(yes, all of the groomsmen have J names, ironically, one of the people we are batting around for the last groomsman is name Jason . Weird)
After our wedding at home we will be Disneymooning from June 9-16 at POFQ. I cant wait! I went what seemed like every year when I was growing up (again, thanks mom and dad). But if havent been since my senior year of HS, its been over 5 years, its KILLING ME! DF has only been once, and it was a school trip I guess and they only went to one park for part of a day, so its practically his first trip there, so excited!
More to come
