I'm KD, I work for a bank, my FH is a doctor, we are both 30 and getting married this holiday season after 3 yrs of dating. We are getting hitched at a hotel in the mountains and I'm hoping to have my little dog make an appearance. I like reading all of your post and of course, the memes!

    Hi all I'm Andrea & FH is Damian. We've been together for almost 3 years. I'm 50 and he's 38 we have never seen the age difference so it works for us. I'm an accountant and he works in construction sound proofing buildings. We're both from Jamaica but we live in Sunrise, FL. We have 4 children between us. I always wanted 4 children 2 boys and 2 girls. I already had my boys and he added the 2 girls. They're 22, 19, 16, 15. I have my pairs now. We became engaged March of this year and will be married in less than 2 months. Truly world wind planning, thank God I'm so organized.

    ETA: Added our ages and corrected typos

    @chasity - right now I do not have any kids with autism, but I have in the past. I hope therapy has been working for your 7 year old!

    At my current job, I do home-based therapy (and some daycare based) for kids. I would love to work in a pediatric hospital -- I love the more medical side of my field!

    Yay! We share a date - somewhat. You are getting married 5 days before my birthday!

    Love reading all of these posts! I'm Molly and my FH and I have been together for 8 years. We have a 6-year-old son and 2 dogs and we live in Connecticut. We are getting married on Cape Cod and having a raw bar, lobster tails and beef tenderloin for dinner. We are having a DJ with Karaoke and our favors are sunglasses and a Candy Buffet. I am wearing these shoes that I originally saw here on WW and thank you to the bride that shared them! I LOVE them so much!

    Hello All.... I'm Alexis. My FH is Ian. We've been friends since 2006, but decided to start dating after we lived in other states in 2013. I'm 33 and I am a billing supervisor at an oil company in Phoenix. FH is 31 and is in IT for a home building company in Scottdale. Ummmmmm.... We're having a rustic wedding, but I'll be going for a vintage old Hollywood look. It's kind of what I do in my spare time lol. We have no children. We really don't want any. We have a big dumb pittie named Fred, a Jack Russell/Chihuahua named Maybelline, and a tailess cat named Nubs. The cat runs the house. We just follow her rules. I've been stuck in IDGAF mode and I REALLY need to get back into planning. I just can't seem to get back into it lately...

We are getting married in Cozumel which we visited last year and had so much fun. We have 1 dog and 1 cat. The cat loves to be walked and thinks she is also a dog!

    I loved seeing everyone's pictures! I'm Lara, 34 years old, a unit clerk (secretary) at a major trauma hospital, which I love. I'm in school to be a clinical child psychologist, wanting to work with helping foster children. I have two children, Jordan 14 and Tyson 12, from a previous marriage. FH is Jimmy, 29, and he is a cook and the best man I've ever known. We are both from the Atlanta area and have been dating for 5 1/2 years. We are having a small wedding at a historic B&B.

    Great idea, @KD!

    I'm April from Pittsburgh, PA. I'm a college professor and FH, Steven, is a bartender. Here's a photo of us shark fishing on vacation last year. :-o We've been together for 8 years and just celebrated our first enga-versay!

    We're getting married at the Jekyll Island Club in Georgia. We discovered it 5 years ago while I was at a conference. We joked that it would be an incredible place for a wedding (long before we had any plans to marry)...it's still surreal that we'll actually be getting married there!

    Hello! I'm Kay and my fiancee is forever and always referred to as Fiancee. We met online and bonded very quickly, we've been together about 6 years now. She's pretty great.

    She tells me we first talked about getting married pretty early on, before it was even legal in our state, because at some point I looked at her and just kinda went "so, you wanna...?" I eventually did a formal, theatrical public proposal last month 'cause she really wanted one -- I took her to the train museum, waited until she was distracted by all the trains, then grabbed her hand, went down on one knee and managed to avoid dying of embarrassment long enough to make the speech.

    We've booked a local caterer's restaurant for both the ceremony and the reception, they provide linens, china, flatware, glassware, tables, chairs, setup and cleanup, we've got a rabbi who'll be officiating, one of our friends is knitting an amazing canopy for our chuppah, another friend is taking photos, we've commissioned the same friend to do our ketubah, we're commissioning someone on Etsy to make FI's veil and she's acquired a custom corset for her outfit, all the paper came from Vistaprint, and everything else we're either DIYing or using stuff we already have (or in some cases, DIYing using stuff we already have!).

    I'm really looking forward to our first dance -- we're in the process of practicing to all the options so we can figure out what we like dancing to most, we've been ballroom dancing together a few times a month for about a year now so we're looking forward to showing off! Also, the food. Our entree options as of now are: gnocchi with dairy-free pesto, marinated portobello mushrooms stuffed with winter veggies, and vegan borani banjan (Afghan baked eggplant and tomato topped with nondairy yogurt) over quinoa, and our contact at the caterer said he'd talk to the chef about whether chocolate fondue could be an option for dessert. Clearly I chose the correct venue.

    Woot. These are all adorable! It's awesome to be able to learn about people and their stories.

    Guess I'll go ahead, too.

    My name is Zoni and my FW is Hannah. We have a bit of an age difference since I'm turning 30 in a few days and she's 22. We met as writing colleagues when she read a revised story that I published and felt the need to send me a short letter complimenting one of the minor changes. I was so impressed by her eye for detail that I wrote back and asked if she'd be interested in being one of my editors.

    We quickly found out that we both have a lot in common -- we both work in translation (she translates Spanish, I translate Japanese), are both from out of the States (England and France respectively), both like the same unlikely K-pop group and both have an addiction to cats. What more could you ask for? We've been together ever since.

    We've been engaged for 15 months, and we're looking forward to tying the knot next month at a state park near Ithaca, NY. Our wedding is, unsurprisingly, writing-themed and geeky.

    (If I wasn't at work, I'd add a photo. I'll do that when I get home tonight!)

    So many great posts! I'm Sue, and my FH is Robin, we are both civilians working for the Department of National Defence (DND), I'm in finance and he's an electrical engineer. We met at a work orientation for civilians new to DND. We've been together a little over five years, and will be getting married in just over a year (so excited!!). We are both proud geeks and hope to incorporate some geek culture into our wedding day.

    I'm Annie and work full time as A/P and a billing clerk at a large law firm and my FH is Javier who is the supervisor and mechanic at a forklift company his father owns. We have known each other for nine years and had grown to be best friends before a car accident brought us closer together. Javier proposed to me after only 'officially' dating for three months and while the proposal happened fast, our families couldn't be more ecstatic! We live in a rickety little house in the middle of the woods that is hidden away but we absolutely love it! I am literally marrying my best friend who loves me even when I'm being disgusting or dressed like this!
