Originally from Alabama, presently living in Florida as a retiree. My fiancee lives in Georgia and the wedding will be there because of his deep connections and family ties. This is not my first marriage, but my first wedding. I am usually very conscious of my pennies, but, when it comes to this wedding, I have taken out all the stops! However, I did shop around for the best deals on the things I wanted. I have three grown children and am retired! I guess that sums me up pretty close.
