Steph - Aug 2014

[smhud1313]

Hey Hey Hey!

 

My name is Stephanie and I currently have tentative date of Aug 31, 2014. I was looking towards Hawaii but now I'm leaning more towards Mexico. I hope to have our location pinned down by the end of March (So, next week)

 

Backgroud: My FI and I met when I was in 6th grade, him in 7th. I was instantly head over heels in love with him but was either too scared to tell him, he had a girlfriend or the timing just wasn't right. We were best friends and totally inseperable from ages 12/13 until ages 21/22 when he left for the Marines. I went on and got married as did he. Things happen for a reason though because in June 2010 his wife suddenly left him, with no warning. In July 2010 I finally left my marraige to an abusive alcoholic. In August 2010 my FI's father passed away. I received the call from a mutal friend and went to the wake. I walked in and the world stopped, fireworks were going off and there were stars in my eye's. I saw my FI for the first time in 10 years and once again it was love at first sight. Thankfully for me, this time he felt it too. We have literally be inseperable since that day in Aug, 2010. He has been in Afghanistan the past year and leaves again shortly to go back for another year.

 

I have 2 children from my previous marraige. Last week we were in California in Disneyland when he surprised me with a proposal in front of a fountain with my children there. One of the Disney photopass photographers was able to capture the entire proposal.

 

Well, there's my not so brief introduction.

Congratulations, and welcome to BDW!!!! Disneyland is the best place to get married You will find this website so helpful in planning and narrowing down your destination and hotel. I'm fairly new on here myself, but I can't tell you how valuable the info on here is for your planning. Because of BDW we've been able to narrow down the hotel, create a budget, and compiled lists of local vendors who will help us have our dream wedding at half the cost of a wedding in the states Now we just need to pick a date, lol.
