My name is Michelle. I am 37 years old. I live in New York. This is going to be my second marriage. In my first marriage I was an Army Wife for about 4 years. I am now marrying another veteran, did not plan that although life gives you what you wish for at times, so maybe unconsciously I did lol. First wedding was quick, small, just him and i, and in another country due to deployment. This wedding is officially the "big" one with everyone attending. I've been through a lot of trials and tribulations in my life and I'm now ready to start my life and possibly have a happy beginning. I eventually want children as well. At this moment me and my fiance live with my terminally ill father who we take care of. I am not sure if he's going to make it to my wedding although he is a fighter and a veteran so it is a possibility and we are a very positive, strong family which helps. I'm super excited to have found this website and to depend on all of you for advice, tips, and even just to have a little fun. I am planning my wedding on my own so it can be very trying at times. I am totally not a drama queen (more like a hippy chick lo)l so the planning is not too bad. I wish everyone good luck. I'm always here to talk and I'm looking forward to this journey with you. thanks again XO

Happily married 🎉
