The best:Love

Hello ladies! Here is my e-ring! We haven't picked our wedding bands yet! He bought the diamond seperately from the setting so, when he first proposed I had a plain Tiffany band just as a place holder to hold the diamond till my band was ready.

We were dating 5 1/2 years before Joe proposed. We will have been together 7 1/2 years when we get married!

Congrats! He is adorable!

I love your travel mugs and they are very affordable! I gave my mom the link to your page and she said "Is that what you want because I will go to the Dollar tree and pick them up!" lol, she loves DIY projects! Thanks for sharing!

Hello everyone! Im glad there are a lot of us going through the same thing. I have been engaged since June 2008, but I just started planning last week! I am a teacher also, so my FI and I will be getting married the week of July 4th 2010. We have not decided on a Destination yet! We are either going to tie the knot in Jamaica or Mexico! I have been looking at reviews from resorts, I thought that would help narrow my search, but it hasn't. We know we don't want to get married on the beach and we do want an AI for guest. We have decided on the Passport save the dates my mom will be taking on the project as a DIY. Congrats to everyone and I hope this process gets a lot easier for all of us! Thanks for the thread!

I love it! Your pictures make me want to get married at the Royal Playa del Carmen! You all look like you had sooo much fun! I love the fact that your wedding site wasn't on the beach. The Reception looked great. We haven't chose our location yet, so we may need to look into this resort . I don't want to get married on the beach, because I want to be able to wear heels! The photography is great! Congratulations!!! Do you have a review on the resort and a planning thread?

Very Simple and beautiful. Thanks for the thread!

Thanks Betsy, I appreicate it! I think I look like a big cry baby in that pic!

Hello Everyone, My name is Tiffany and I’m a newbie! I wanted to share my engagement story and a few pics since I have a year until the big day and won't be posting any wedding pictures anytime soon. Our story: Joe and I met second semester freshman year at Clarion University of Pennsylvania. We became best friends , that summer he went to basic training in Florida and we communicated via mail. The following semester he was in Tech school and we spoke on the phone every night! He came back to school in January of 2003 and we began to date! 6 Years later: I moved to Maryland to teach kindergarten in PG county, summer 2007. Joe moved in January 2008. Later on in the school year I found out that myself and the 2 other kindergarten teachers would be responsible for the Kindergarten Promotion Ceremony and Reception. June 3rd, 2008, I was preparing for my students' BIG DAY the following day. I had purchased decorations, a cake, and various other supplies for the ceremony and reception. I asked Joe to accompany me to the school, so that he could help carry and setup. He was acting as if he didn’t want to be bothered and he would be bored at my school. I was a little disappointed that he was acting that way! The next day June 4th, 2008, Joe reluctantly (Atleast thats what I thought) accompanied me to my school, after he helped prepare the library for the reception he went back to my classroom. It was very hectic, early in the morning and I had to gather my class and make sure they made it down the aisle and were seated on time. The Ceremony lasted about 45min and I had forgot all about Joe, but I figured he was ok probably bored in my room playing on the net. So, my children, parents, and I headed to the reception. As the parents and I chatted and I went crazy trying to keep track of all of my children amongst the other 2 classes and parents I could hear one of the pre-k teachers saying " May I have your attention please". I was a little upset, because pre-k had their ceremony the day before and we hadn't interrupted their ceremony (lol). As I turned to find out what was going on Joe was in front of me on one knee **"babbling" with a ring in his hand. All I could do was cry and say YES I didn’t hear a word he said, I was shocked. Tears flowing, I hid my face because I am very shy in front of a crowd and people I don’t know! My children were so concerned asking me what was wrong and was I going to be ok?! They had NO clue what had happened. All my parents had tears in their eyes! I was sooo surprised and never expected it! It was the best surprise of my life! We plan on having a DW in July 2010. We have Not picked a destination yet. ** I say babbling because I have NO clue as to what he said and he has never repeated it to me since! I tried to attach a link to my photo bucket pictures because I was unsure of the size requirements when posting pics on the forum. Engagement pictures by tdtillman - Photobucket

Your gable gift boxes are soo adorable! They are very elegant! I think I might need to borrow your ideal! I love it! Thanks for the post.

I heard it on the radio this morning, I believe they said STAR is reporting it. I just read the affidavit from the night of the incident and it is unbelievable if she took him back I'm worried about her safety. They are too young, NObody should have to endure what she has endured. I also feel bad for him because he was raised in an abusive environment and never received counseling for it.

It is being reported that Chris Brown and Rihanna got married in Miami at Puffy's house...Today in Court Chris was granted a continuance by the judge until April 6th. Chris’ attorney Mark Geragos said “Ms. Fenty†did not request a no-contact order.

I spent 30min. on the elliptical! Should have done more, but had to get my progress reports started.

Hello Lisa, I am a new member also. This site is soo useful and informative with many ideas. This site has actually motivated me to start planning my weeding! Congratulations, I wish I was planning a wedding in Maui!

I'm new to this thread, but I really need it! It is very inspirational, hopefully one day I will be running miles with all of you! I need 2 get up and start moving, because my FI has been running all week. I am a slacker I did a half hour cardio with MY FITNESS coach on Wii!
