Can't wait to be his trophy wife!!

Hello all!!

 

My name is Missie and I live in the Bay Area of California. Our wedding date as of now is July 1, 2012 in the wonderful island of Hawaii. My DF proposed to me there and I just can't wait to get married there. Unfortunately my college isn't done yet and that's a really big priority. One of us has to at least be all done with school so one is working in a career as the other one finishes up. In addition I've always wanted a long engagement so I can soak up this special time. Being GF and BF is different from being fiance and fiance, as well has husband and wife. I'm just enjoy this stage we are at as being engaged to one another. It's fantastic!! We're in the beginning stages of house hunting as well, and looking forward to being home owners to a BRAND NEW house hopefully by summer time or fall of next year!! Anyhoo, I'm so excited to get to know all of you and receive all the knowledge you all have! Can't wait to share with you my happiness as well!!

 

xoxo,

Missie

Congrats and welcome to the forum!! Enjoy the planning!!

Congratulations!!! I'm having a long engagement too. It just gives us more time to plan our weddings!!

Thanks!! How long is your engagement?? Another reason why our engagement is soooo long is because it's a significant date. (I didn't just want any ol' day to get married on) It will be out 6 year anniversary, and 6 is my DF's favorite number and my lucky number!

Our engagement will be about 2 years...not quite as long as yours. Having a date that's sentimental to you makes it all the more special!

I know!! I feel like I'm waiting for a day that will never come!! What do you do to keep your beans from jumping outta your heart?! I feel like this wait is forever and sometimes I just wanna elope!! I can't take it!!

LOL well I'm enjoying calling him my FIANCE, for one. I never get tired of saying that. Plus, I look at all this time as time to plan my wedding how I really want it to be and it gives us time to save money for the wedding too & believe it or not, time is going to fly!!! I can't believe its been over a year already that we've been engaged. Before you know it, 2012 will be here.

I feel like because I have so much time for planning I don't have to rack my brain as much ya know?? There's plenty of time for me to plan things out slowly and not be as stressed. Not saying I'm not stressed, haha. I'm very over whelmed and glad I found a forum which could help ease somethings!! I'm still not used to calling DF my fiance. Haha. I slip sometimes and still call him my BF and it's been 9 months!!

Welcome to the forum!!! I'm having a long engagement as well, it will be 4 years being engaged when we get married.

 

I did the same thing for the first year.
