    I see all these great posts from people with really interesting names and i'm curious to know the backstory! Some are colors, some are foods, some are places, and some seem like nonsense words- but i know there is a story to them all! What is the story behind your weddingbee name?

    I'll give you the quick backround on why i chose "july"- nothing too witty or deep, put very simply- I am a huge fan of the month of July! I have always been a summer person, and some of the best times of my life happened in or around the month of July.  I was born July 15.  The second greatest love of my life, my pet kitten belle, was born in the month of July. I met my SO in the Summer of 2003 (i dont remember the exact date we first hooked up/ got together, but it was either june or july), we officially starting dating in July 2008, and i'm really hoping for a July '11 or '12 wedding! (and i'm also secretly hoping for July '10 proposal, on our anniversary/my birthday celebration that we're planning! eeps!)

     

    What about you? Whats your username story?

    Miss Chocolate came from my love for chocolate :] My mom always says "When in doubt, eat chocolate!" So I'm convinced that one of these days chocolate is going to start running through my veins instead of blood!!! I just love chocolate :]

    BeachFanatic    10-2-10   New Jersey

    My birthday is July 15 too! we are twins! TOTALLY the best month of the year.

    I think my name is obvious. duh, I LOVE the beach. I am a beach bride. I have spent every summer at the Jersey shore. It used to be my AIM screen name growing up. When I lived at home EVERYTHING in my room was beach related... I even have a lighthouse collection. My college room was completely tropical. I spread it out a little now.. but I am just a barefoot in the sand kind of chica.

    Mine is ridic!  I blame my work computer.  It was supposed to be Jennifer... cuz its my name.  And the espos was supposed to be esposa... for wife in spanish.  But my computer freaked out and this is what I got... close, but not quite.  I could of just changed it but at the time I didn't think I was gonna spend much time on here.  A year later- I'm addicted ;)

    Mine's a little obvious.  Once married (ie in the Future), my initials will be KMM (first, middle, his last - I don't mind losing my maiden name.  No one ever says or spells it right anyway).

    @July.. where did you grow up??  I grew up north west of the city near Lowell.  I'm stuck in the South now.. I can't wait to get back to the North East!!

    @Beachfanatic.. good luck with your weather!  I spent my summers in Normandy Beach.  I love going down the shore in the fall though.. your wedding will be beautiful!

    My last name in 12 letters long...whenever we were in band (yup band kid), the bus list would always abbreviate my name to AF'Bacher. It got to the point where everyone started calling me that - it's my alias everywhere now.

    Goldilocks1107    September 2010   Madison, WI

    I have curly hair, and it's blond. When I was little, my dad would call me goldilocks. And the 1107 are my favorite numbers: 11 and 7. Mainly because those numbers are also the birthdate of a tennis player I had a HUGE crush on in high school. But it stuck and is easy for me to remember. Silly, I know Embarassed

    LovestheBear    July 2011  

    I want to change mine every day.  It's actually the junk email address that I created to catch all the spam from the travel sites when we first started dating--we'd fly to see each other every weekend.  It was supposed to be dumb and cheesy bc all my other email addys are normal and boooring.  His nickname is Bear, so I "loves the Bear."

    skibobrown    July 31, 2010   CA (wedding in Bar Harbor, ME)

    @July & @ moose -- I'm a July 9th baby from Boston.  I just miss you guys by a week!  I just moved out to Cali in the fall, and I miss the northeast terribly!  My user name is a bizarre nickname that my mom used to call me when I was a baby.  I want to change it to Skibo_Brown, but I guess it's too late for that.  My avatar is of a tiger lily, since I love those flowers and they will feature prominently in my wedding :-)
