- Wedding: September 2011
And just to pop in, my birthday is July 30, 1992. A lot of July brides O.o
And YAY for July =)
It’s so weird because everyone I know was born in either May or Fall/Winter, haha. I have one friend born a week before me, and that’s it. π
My grandma is a baptist so that is what church I will be going to while I am staying with her =) Right now my Fiance are going to our premarital counseling and we are reading a book called “marriage the way its made to be” and it is awesome. and wow that is all I know how to do too!!!! there are a few other things I can make such as spaghetti, mashed potatoes and meatloaf but other than that its mostly breakfast.
I don’t have much plans yet, I have mostly ideas and what not. I cannot start purchasing most of the stuff until June because thats when my Fiance gets the money from boot camp. we are going to have a potluck wedding though. I am hoping to get more of it figured out when I am spending my time in California with my grandma whom is AWESOME lol
I’m only 18…and married to the love of my life, the man who makes me the happiest woman alive. I couldn’t imagine life without him. People may judge you, but there are plenty of woman who get married that young and are perfectly happy throughout their marriage.
Oh, and welcome to the wonderful life of a Marine wife! My hubby is a Marine π
Oh yay! i am not a marine wife yet, he goes to boot camp in march =) btw you have the date I wanted!
Yeah I understand, it was a long time before we had enough saved up that I felt comfortable spending any of it, lol. And the bouquet cost way more than I had anticipated it to. But we ended up pulling everything together in the end, with help from family and a lot of diy. Now I just have to sit back for the next three days (and finish my bridesmaid’s bouquets >.> wow am I late on that one) and wait.
Potluck weddings are a great idea, we almost did that until FH’s uncle insisted food as a (very generous) wedding gift. Are you having the wedding outdoors? I wanted to so bad, but weather isn’t permitting. Especially now, when my house is being slammed by snow and thunderstorms :O
Grandmas are amazing! Mine has been more supportive of us than anyone, and has come up with really great ideas! I’m sure yours will be a huge help, grandmas know the best tips and tricks for saving a dollar and making things charming π
I definitely believe that your ready, just reading through your posts, I don’t think that anyone could call you immature by any means. And no worries I think I’m even more out of place than you on here lol, I’m 19 and not engaged and I’m looking for a ring anytime soon either. I’m just here for the lovely company
I was 18 when I got married. Noone could tell me anything. Everyone told me the same things …. “you’re too young”, “You need more life experience”, “Have fun before you settle down and get married”. I WOULD NOT LISTEN. I was in love and was blind. Well….. I thought we had made it BUT we ended up getting a divorce after 13 years of marriage. We have two children together. What I want in a husband at the age of 32 is very different than what I saw as important at the age of 18. I NOW think having those years of life experience are very important…. to know who you are before you blend yourself into someone else. I mean we pretty much grew up together after we got married, but I ended up molding into who he was and wanted me to be too. I have just in the past two years began to learn about ME. I’m not trying to lecture you, because I know I’m sounding like a momma right now. I just hope my children choose a different road. I want them to have lots of wonderful life experiences and be who they truly are before they get married…. preferably above the age of 25. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck.
I’m not engaged yet…but I’m 19 and really I don’t think age has anything to do with it. If you are ready, that’s all that matters…oh and my bday is July 29th π seems like we will all be celebrating around the same time? Big birthday bash anyone?
I am so excited to have my own place and do the grocery shopping because I want to learn to cook lots more stuff! Even though I too will probably gain weight… but oh well I won’t have to fit in a wedding dress ever again hahaha.
What all did you DIY? I am DIYing basically everything other than my dress LOL. Do you have a theme? My fiance is praying heavily that he wins the lottery haha. He said that if he won he would only give me another 1000 for our wedding! he really doesn’t get it at all lol.
I love potlucks, even if we did have a ton of money for a wedding, that is one thing that would stay the same. I am not a big formal sit down eat and be quiet type of person I want everyone mingling =) Our ceremony is in our church but the reception is both indoors downstairs and out in the back yard (there is a door that connects them) I hope the weather is still good in the end of September…
Grandmas are amazing! Mine has been the most supportive out of all as well. She is even making our wedding cake π I am so excited to go spend some time with her. But I do feel a little bad, right now she is helping my cousin with her wedding which is in June. I don’t want to overwhelm her! lol But I know she will give me awesome ideas and help me save a ton of money!
