RE:Once upon a lifetime ~ I'm getting married!!
It was incredibly exciting to shop for the ring! I definitely know what rock I want! I also have a definite idea of what setting I want, but we didn't find it anywhere! Not many places are open on Sundays (who knew?), and few carry a selection of yellow gold settings. The setting might have to be custom made. I'm going out of town for 4 days (roommate's wedding), so we'll finalize everything when I get back.

[img]i/expressions/heart.gif[/img] Fun times!! Thanks for asking!

I haven't been around much recently...so, somehow missed this thread.
Congrats! It couldn't have happened to a better girl.

RE:Once upon a lifetime ~ I'm getting married!!
Wow! I can't believe I missed this post.
I am so excited for you. Being engaged is one of the greatest times life has to offer.
What are your colors?
Where is the honeymoon?
Did you pick out a dress yet? (shopping for a wedding dress is an amazing experience. I will never forget the first time I tried one on.)
Best wishes for a lifetime of happiness. [img]i/expressions/wine.gif[/img]

I had no idea there was an engagement euphoria, until I began experiencing it.
Colors: berry & pine green (harvest colors for accents - I love having a fall wedding!)
Honeymoon: 14 days in Oregon - lounging on the coast, touring through wine country, hiking in the Cascades (not to mention visiting a couple of nature preserves and observatories) and playing a little "vacation golf" at Bandon Dunes.
Dress: Yes! I'm having the sleeves changed though, so my seamstress has it at the moment. I'll post a picture after. It's gorgeous!!

RE: Once upon a lifetime ~ I'm getting married!!
Wow! That all got organised quickly. I've been engaged for 4 years and I haven't even set a date!
Let alone picked colours. That's adorable though. I love autumn (fall, do you guys call it autumn?) wedding.
Gorgeous colours.
I can't wait to see the wedding dress. I love dresses!

LOL, you crack me up! I guess this quick engagement is rather whirlwind-like. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I thought you didn't like fancy dresses? Are you humoring me?! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Well, I never thought I'd go for a fancy dress, but I sorta did. I meet with the seamstress tonight for the first "fitting".
We usually call it "fall", I think, but I like the sound of "autumn" better. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

RE: Once upon a lifetime ~ I'm getting married!!
man, the engagement is pretty fun. of course, i didn't get to try on any dresses. well, at least not in any stores...
but then the euphoria disappears after the wedding. everything goes back to normal. Oops, did I just put a downer on things? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
seriously, sounds like fun. I need to get back up to the Pacific Northwest.

"Normal" is pretty good, if you ask me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] It's so nice have your best friend around all the time.

It feels weird to think of it that way!
When we get back from trips he usually drops me off at my apartment, and then he goes home. I was thinking (out loud) that when he drops me off after the honeymoon, I'll do some laundry (it'll be Saturday evening), and then go spend Sunday with him at his house. At first he said, "okay, whatever works best for you.." Then he gets excited and says "No way! YOu're going home with ME! YOu're going to be my WIFE!" LOL I don't know what I was thinking - as if I'd just go back to my little apartment after. LOL
"Spouse". I guess that's a "life changing event", eh? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
