Connecticut Brides Forum! Let's Meet!

Savannah, on September 2, 2019 at 12:09 PM Posted in Connecticut Planning 1 26

Hey! I'm Savannah and I'm 24 from Milford, CT! My fiance & I are getting married on Sunday, May 30, 2021! The reasoning behind our date specifically is that May 30th is our anniversary. We've been together since 2012. My fiance Chris came into my life at the perfect timing. We started dating a week before my dad tragically and suddenly passed away. He has stuck by me through everything I've gone through. I'm extremely grateful to be marrying him. That date is very special to me because from the day we started dating to here we are 7+ years later, he has stuck by me through thick and thin. I want to get married and keep that special date as our anniversary always. May 30, 2021 will be our 9 year anniversary together and our 1 year marriage anniversary will be our 10 year anniversary of being together so it's very special to me! Tell me your stories I would love to hear!

Looking for any CT brides past or future to meet and discuss different vendors you plan on using or have used! Also it's just nice to meet people who can relate to all of the wedding stresses in life! Let's swap ideas too while we are at it! CT Brides, introduce yourselves in the comments! Where you're from and when your date is!

    Congrats lovely! Wow we live so close! I live in the Devon area of Milford! We checked out Aria and loved it! However, one thing set us away was that they didn't have our date available because it was booked already! We are planning on getting married in Plantsville at Aqua Turf Club. We viewed it and instantly fell in love with everything about it.

    Aww that’s so unfortunate. The venue is so popular so we thought we were crazy for booking so early. We actually had to go back to change from the smaller room to the bigger one and was afraid our date wouldn’t be available. A lot of people clearly don’t want to get married in March 😂. And I’ve never heard of that venue! But it sounds beautiful. I know Devon well. I would always be at KMart before it left and my FH got his car from the Hyundai dealership across the street!

    Aqua Turf is most likely our venue! We wanna visit a few more to be sure, but I feel like you just know when you've seen THE ONE! Haha! We want to get married May 30th because it's our anniversary and it's always like perfect weather!

    Hi! My name is Denise. I am from Shelton CT. My fiancé and I are getting married August 15,2020 at Bill Miller’s Castle in Branford. We only looked at two venues and instantly knew this was the one for us! I went to a couple of bridal events but still need to book a hotel, hair and makeup person and a honeymoon.
