Newbie alert! Proper introductions are in order...

mooneybunny, on May 14, 2013 at 6:48 PM Posted in Planning 0 31

Hi everyone! I am a longtime and frequent lurker, and I feel it's time to introduce myself to you wonderful ladies (and gentlemen!) I'm 30, and my FH and I have been together for 8 years, living together for 7yrs, through good times and bad- he's been there for me through 2 bouts of cervical cancer, and anything else I need him for, even if its trivial, he's got my back :-) We are both originally from San Antonio, TX, and recently relocated to Hartford CT for FH job- he popped the question in front of the Alamo right before we moved! I'm a little lonely here in New England, leaving all my friends and family, but it's been an adventure! Wedding planning has definitely given me something to focus on, plus it keeps me in touch with all my loved ones back home. Our wedding date is 7/18/14 back home in San Antonio, venue is already booked! So Im planning a destination wedding, but at least in a place I'm familiar with! More details and questions (lots!) to follow, but just sayin howdy!

    Welcome to WW! I live in Newington! (Town just south of Hartford)

    Are you actually in Hartford? Or in the suburbs?

    Kelly T and Nicole C: It's great to hear from other Connecticut brides! I live in New Britain/Newington, super close to WestFarms mall. What I find so unique (and also confusing!)about CT is that I can travel half a mile in any direction and be located in a different town, and they all have the same street names! Maybe we can have a CT WW social :-)

    MJ: I miss SA like crazy, especially mexican food-- can't get a tortilla up north worth a damn! We are getting married at a brand new venue just a little north of SA in Spring Branch called the Lodge at Bridal Veil Falls. Its absolutely gorgeous, with ceremony sites next to waterfalls off Canyon Lake, total vendor freedom and I can bring in my own alcohol!

    Thanks again to all of ya'll all over the country for making me feel welcome!

    That area by the West Farms Mall seems to be where a lot of town lines meet lol. I went to Central Connecticut State University which is pretty much down the street from there and the school itself is in two different towns!
