I'm from L.A. and glad to see this thread. I never knew about the other website. I am going to take a look at it....I jumped the broom 2 months ago, but am still lurking around weddingbee. Congratulations to all of you!
Hi there, glad to know there are others out there. I wonder if there are any African-American bloggers...I am a Canadian of African descent (Ghana) and originally from Montreal. I currently live in England with my Scottish fiance and we plan on getting married in Scoltand and totally planning on repping my culture. Glad to "meet" you and hope to exchange some ideas with you.
Hello all! I am married also (and still lurking on weddingbee) :) Glad to see that there are other AA brides on here too! Happy planning. We live in Jersey, but I'm from ATL and we got married in Tampa, FL where my parents are from.
I'm glad to see the AA brides posting slowly but surely! Kakita, my sister is over in Europe right now, and just left England last week, and raved about it on her travel log. She said the people are beyond friendly and helpful. The only thing she didn't like was that she said that people smoke a LOT in London (and Paris) which I found funny and ironic because I'm a smoker and she complains about it - now she's surrounded by smokers in a foreign country. Your wedding sounds like it's going to be really interesting. Congratulations!
Hey girls! I'm an AA bride in Tampa, FL. I'm moving to Chicago with my Mexican fiance in June, but the wedding will be in FL in November. Nice to say hello!
mlindsey, the smoking drives me bonkers. I've travelled a bit around Europe and the Brits and French are such avid smokers. You would love it here! Thanks for the congrats!
Hello to all the African American brides and grooms out there!
posted by tuckers19 2 posts 5 months agoFinally, someone has spoken. I kept looking, but never bothered to start the "hello" myself. I'm glad you did.
I'm located in Washington, DC. (Silver Spring, MD to be exact) and getting married outside of Baltimore, MD.
Where are you?
