@cyndistar3: Yay another Christian! May I ask what denomination/non-denomination you are? I also agree with you and truitjen, I’ve never partied and never will. It has zero appeal to me, where a book, crafting, or drawing is more my idea of fun.

And just to pop in, my birthday is July 30, 1992. A lot of July brides O.o

@cyndistar3: Same here :] If I had to say it’d probably be Baptist, because that’s the church I went to as a kid, but really I’m non-denom. My FH and I are trying to read the entire bible together, we started on Matthew yesterday, and then we’re moving on to Genesis 😀 I love baking too; that and breakfast foods are about all I can cook, though I’m trying to change that 😛 For our reception we’re having a candy/dessert buffet, and I’ve got to bake all day tomorrow to finish the cookies, mini cheesecakes, and fudge. What are your wedding plans so far?

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. 😛

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 🙂

@cyndistar3: That sounds great! My FH’s grandfather gave us another book, “The Gospel of John” to read, but we’re focusing on one at a time, lol. Yeah, I can chicken and some pastas but everything’s kind of odd and end stuff; I really want to get better at cooking, particularly Italian, even though if I learn to cook I’ll probably gain 10 pounds >.<

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 😀

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 Wink

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.

@Jill0212: My mom is always lecturing me on making sure I am ready because she got married kind of young and they got divorced. I know this is who i am going to be and I know he is all I am ever going to want, I had to grow up a long time ago… I don’t really feel like I am 17 at all. I KNOW I am ready for marriage and for my family to be together because there is nothing more heartbreaking than watch a little girl cry for her daddy almost every day. I guess what I am getting at is everyones lives are different and everyone does things in there own time. The only molding left is for God to do and He will keep us strong =)

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 🙂 seems like we will all be celebrating around the same time? Big birthday bash anyone?

@SnowPeony: My reply to you didn’t post earlier =( 

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 😀 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!
