@Emshaw - I'll give plenty of notice, to accomodate everyone :)
I'm going to bump this up! Anyone else?
I could probably come! I'm over in Langley, and seriously cross the bridge once in a blue moon, so I'd be totally useless for helping pick a location in Vancouver proper. Maybe somewhere near a Skytrain??
I'm in! The Seattle girls are doing a crafting day - that sounds like so much fun! :)
Hey, this thread got revived when I wasn't looking! If people are still interested, I still would like to plan something. I will send you all PMs soon so we can arrange a time in case you don't check this thread again. I'll pick somewhere near the Skytrain (I don't own a car, and in case others don't) and central i.e not necessarily in the downtown. I live near Lougheed Skytrain, so anywhere along the line is good for me.
How did I miss this?? I'm totally in :)
Girls, this is so exciting for me! When I joined a year ago, I swear I was one of the only Canadian bee's... now we're having our own meet-ups! So cool!!
Im totally in as well. I was actually just thinking about starting a meet up last night!
I live in Richmond, so close to a skytrain and am able to commute somewhere to meet.
Are we thinking a weekday or weekend meet?
Hey Ladies, I haven't forgotten about the meetup, I'm just in the middle of a busy time right now, so I haven't been on the Bee much lately. I promise to organize something soon :)
I might be up for a meet up - though I'm still just starting the process so it might be more to get some ideas from those of you who are well on your way :)
@jpatterson - COME :) We will probably chat wedding, but also its a great oppurtunity to meet some new people.
@Recessionista - LOL, I was thinking for the first little while this thread was up "Where the heck is Recessionista, I thought she'd be all over this!" ;)
So... I was thinking of various locations, trying to make it so no one would have to commute super far. What do people think of Milestones in Brentwood? It is very close to Brentwood Mall Skytrain station, so people could transit if they wanted. And Burnaby is somewhat central to most of you I believe.
I work shift work, so my schedule is sort of all over the place. As a matter of fact, I am writing this at 0530 in the morning! I am up for weekend or weeknight. I would like to suggest a tentative date of Thursday, April 15th. Perhaps 7 pm? I am open to alternative dates as well. Let me know ladies!
I will be in Toronto for work on the 15th, I get home at midnight that night :( If another date works, I'd love to be there. Milestones in Brentwood is quite central - good choice!
@jpatterson7 - shoot! Depending on how many people prefer this date, we might just keep it, but if all goes well we will be definitely having another one!
@SapphireSun and Emshaw - Yay! So far we got three bees (including myself) as a go for that night. I'll just wait to here from the others, and if all is a go, I'll make a reservation!
I'm ok for a date change if necessary. Looking at my planner, it looks like the only weeknights that are definitely out are April 8 and April 22.
If you do decide to change the date my bad dates are April 12-15 (work trip) and April 29-May 2 (stagette). Everything else is pretty flexible aside from strange work things that can come up.
Schedule it & I'll be there :) I'm confused though-- is it on April 15th fo' sho?
Burnaby...central?! It's 2 whole zones away!!! haha I've been living in the city too long :P jk! I think it's a great location... Thanks for getting this together, V!
Location sounds great...just set a date and i will be there :) Except the 17th...i have wedding that day! :)
I'm in. (thanks for the PM Valhalla!) The 15th is fine with me...Most of April is good to go. Just say when and I'll show up!
D'oh! I forgot I have an exam on April 15th in the evening, so a date change will be necessary! I want to include as many people as possible, I would like to propose this date:
The FIRST Vancouver Wedding Bee Meet Up will be held on WEDNESDAY, ARPIL 21 at MILESTONES at BRENTWOOD at 7:00 pm! I will get there a bit early, just ask the waitress to seat you with the Wedding Bee Meet-Up! Plenty of parking available at the restaurant, or you can Skytrain it and get off at Brentwood Station and walk.
Please just confirm one final time if you can make this date - I'll ask one of the mods if they can make it a sticky.
Looking forward to meeting some new people and some wedding chat :)
Looks like that will work for me - YAY! Good luck on your exam Valhalla and thanks for organizing :D
Alright my lovely bees! I pm'd a few stragglers, and am just waiting to hear back on final numbers. Looking forward to meeting and chatting all things wedding :)
Just a friendly reminder that the FIRST official Vancouver Bee Meetup is tomorrow eveing, 7 pm, at Milestones at Brentwood. When you arrive at the restaurant, just ask to be seated with the Wedding Bee Meet-up!
Here is a picture so you will know what I look like :) Looking forward to tomorrow eveing!
OMG I am SO jealous that I am going to miss this! I have an exam on Thursday morning and Brentwood would be quite the trek from downtown Vancouver so I can't even pop in for a quick study break to chat wedding with you ladies. Have fun and hopefully I can make the next one!
@09/07/11 - we are sorry to miss you tonight! Definitely check the thread for future meet-ups. Hope to meet up with you sometime!
Valhalla
@Valhalla -thanks for organizing! It was great to meet you girls and finally put a face to the (screen)names!

@SapphireSun and jpatterson - it was great to meet you ladies! :)
To those who missed out: We had lots of fun discussing our weddings, getting to know each other, and having lots of good laughs :) We hope to see you next time!
At baileyh - we wondered what happened to you! I am sorry you had some car trouble. We will organize another meet-up in the future, and hopefully get some more bees to come out.

Sorry, there are no users yet.
I just saw that several Ontario bees were getting meet-ups going in Missasauga/Toronto, and I thought I would see if any bees were interested in a Vancouver meet-up? If people are interested, we can take this topic further, determining dates, places, etc. All are welcome!
