After numerous phone calls with reassurance by my handsome fiance, I signed a contract and forked over 25% to hold the venue on our special day. Turns out the day I had in my head was the only Saturday available between now and the end of the year and essentially 20…
While channeling the Count from Sesame Street, Jenn and I have picked the following color palatte for the wedding. We have picked 5 wedding colors. It began as a simple 3, Brown, Blue and Fuschia. However it expanded when Jenn went to Home Depot to get color cards. She came…
So we have talked about everything from date to venue to colors to attendants to photographer, videographer, violinist, and cake tonight. Oh, and BUDGET! I have emailed a few people, he has made calls, and the (*cough* poor *cough*) idea of his to not plan anything for a while is failing miserably. …
Thank you all for your kind comments and e-mail about the recent engagement of Jenn and I. We really appreciate them, truly we do. And me being the eager boyfriend wanting to share with the world the great news I just got from Jenn about saying “yes”…. I forgot to…
So in all honesty, I probably won’t be wearing one of the 14 in the closet, but I can also tell you I will definitely not be wearing any of these:
So as I’m sure you know I got bonus gifts in addition to the beautiful ring – as if that was not enough? A nice picture frame that I have now put a shocked jenn picture into, lego people and plant, a manual that I *might* need and a gigantic…
How in the hell did he do all of this without me having a clue! And.. I thought I read everything yesterday but I missed a whole page. It all feels so surreal. I have not gotten a chance to tell anyone in person… I have however said things like…
After arriving to West – quite late and slightly anxious about that, Laura and I rushed up in the elevator and checked in – “Jennifer McNeil for two, right this way” the hostess told me. I walked around the corner where she told me to watch the steps, I was…
Questions not to ask us in the next 2 weeks: Have you set the date? Answer: Of course not! We just got engaged, we would like October or a fall wedding, nothing is set in stone yet. Have you gotten your dress? Answer: Of course, I have 14 dresses in…
Jenn and I are back at home now. We had a great night at WEST and Hotel Angeleno. Here is what happened last night from my point of view. Jenn was working from 9am to 1pm. At 1:30pm Laura arrived at the house and Jenn bought Pat & Oscar’s for…
The girls have just left the apartment for their nail appointment and I am about to go to work to pick up some other odds and ends I have hidden there. Mainly the gift bag and some other things. I am not nervous now at all because the limo has…
So it is the day of the proposal. I have a lot of things to get done. I need to pack my suit with my new shirt and tie. I need to pack a carry-on bag with clothes for Sunday for Jenn and I. I need to go to work…
A day and a half before the proposal, the same time it takes to get up to Seattle by train, is all that stands between me and a “Yes” or “No” from Jenn. All plans are still good and confirmations are coming in. This morning I got a text from…
