    Hi there, I was looking through the posts and saw that there was a Vancouver meet up about 6 months ago. Would anyone be interested in doing another?

    Thought it would be nice to meet other ladies in the same wedding planning mode as I am. Maybe share ideas, vendors or warn us about bad experiences?

    Hope to meet some of you!

    I'd be interested. There was another meetup in February I wasn't able to make, and then talk of one in April that never came to fruition. I'd love to hang out with some Vancouver bees again!

    Ok, I don't mind arranging something but I need a date that works best for you ladies in August and a few suggestions on where.  I can meet pretty much anywhere. :)

    Sure I'd be up for another one.. Went to the one in February and it was fun.  This time I have my ring ;)  (It was getting resized at the time at the meeting).

    August would be best for me too.. 

    Where is a good central location for most people?  Depends where people are coming from..  Surrey?  Burnaby? New West?

    Anytime in the first half of August would work for me. I have a friend's bachelorette and wedding taking up the last two weekends.

    I live in Kitsilano, but I can easily drive or take transit to wherever's convenient for the majority.

    I'd like to come too...although my FI will probably look at me like I have two heads when I tell him where I'm going lol. 

    I live in PoCo but can easily travel.  My schedule is pretty flexible in the summer too.  I just know I'm away for the August long weekend.

    So the next question is, are you gals ok with meeting up on a week night? (Work the next day?). I'm free after August 10th, even on days I have to work the next day. I get off work and home around 5. Weekends are usually busy.

    I could try to pull off Aug 15th but because its a weekday (and Im working now!) My hours around then will be either 9am-3pm or 6am-2pm- So I could meet up maybe for dinner or something but probably not anything later (8pm) because I have to get home to sleep!

    @vmec: Yeah I was thinking 630 or so.

    @valera03: Of course, the more the merrier!

    @Bellanouva: It would be nice to have you for whatever amount of time you can. :)

     

    Ok, well I will leave things open for others and a few days in advance I'll make a reservation for us.

    @julietblueeyes: I will be in Vancouver (downtown) once I get out of work..so hopefully I will be able to work it out between park and ride and getting to burnaby. Can you send me the address for the milestones in Burnaby? even if I get out around 3pm I should be able to make it out there. :)

    @vmec:   You saw them?  I guess on the photographer's blog eh?  haha small world I know.  So far I think she does good work, it was definitely a helpful session to know what to expect for the big day.  We were both so nervous.

     

    And the 15th works for me as well! :)  I'm good to go whenever works for most people.

    Are we going to the Milestones in Burnaby? If so, is that in Metrotown? Or where? If someone knows and can post it on here for the group so we all know where to go that'll be great. :)
