    Would anyone be interested in joining a facebook group for Seattle weddingbee meetups?

    Just trying to think about ways to involved currently planning bees and now newlywed bees. 

    I know the last few meetups were lots of fun.

    Meetup.com is a great site but it cost money to have a group and facebook is the next best thing and it's free!

    Let me know what you think.

    I'm not in Seattle, but I worry that newbees wouldn't hear about a facebook group as easily as they can see the sign ups on the boards, for any given local group (Seattle seems to be one of our most active locales though, especially for meet ups! I feel like ya'll are always getting together - and I'm way jealous!)

    I love that idea.  Couldn't we have one of the Bee's ("poke" Pretzel or DG) to sticky a thread on the Seattle board for the newbee's, about the group?

    That way nobody wouuld be missed :)

    @daydreamer

    Yeah, this wouldn't be to replace the threads we have on here.  It would be in addition to it.  Plus, once you become a member of this local weddingbee site, you could be a member of this group and know about upcoming meetups after you *tear* leave weddingbee.  But since we are such a nice group here, it would be great to keep up with fellow bees.

    :) I love TP's idea of sticky-ing a note to invite new members!

    Well, I guess this would only be good for people who are regularly on facebook, like me.

    yes, that would be awesome! I'm on facebook more than I'm on here...and sometimes with the boards being so busy, I think I might miss posts about meet-ups.

    @PDX

    Yup, I almost missed the last meetup, the DIY one.  I don't check the Seattle boards everyday and if I didn't check it, I would have missed it completely.  Although, I didn't go to the DIY meetup because I had a migraine... but I hope to go to the next one.

    Like if there is a wedding related movie coming out, I would love to go with a group from weddingbee because I know I will have to practically drag my DH to go. hehe

    Plus it's probably more enjoyable to go with a group of girls then with my husband who will be bored the entire time.

    Sure thing, I'll continue to post meet ups on the blog- you gals just tell me when and where!  I joined the FB group too.  I like the idea of a stickey post too.

    I've been off WB for a bit so I'm just seeing this, but looks like a great idea!

    @darlyn: Hiya! I am over in Kitsap, so Seattle may likely be the closest meet-up location but I am certainly interested! Please keep me posted. :) Thx
