meet our bloggers:
Love and Latkes!
I'm Stephanie and I'm getting married in Miami on December 15, 2012. My fiance Oren and I met at a bar one night and my life hasn’t been the same since. On this blog, I'll talk about everything wedding planning –- from honoring Jewish wedding traditions to putting together the perfect and uniquely "us" reception and navigating the world of wedding planning from behind my desk at TheKnot.com. Yes that's right; I work at TheKnot.com on the public relations team. It’s truly a dream job and I love every second of it. But how will it affect my planning? Will my insider information be a lifesaver or a burden? I'm guessing it'll be a little of both, but only time will tell and you're coming with me on the journey!
The Can't Wait to Say "I Do" Bride
I'm Laura, and I'm getting married on Long Island on May 21, 2011. My fiance, Chris, and I met in college and have been together for almost 6 years. I am loving every step of the wedding planning process and enjoy documenting all our wedding plans for our friends and family who are not close by. I am also training for my third half marathon this coming October, which is helping me stay fit and focused while the countdown rolls closer to our big day!
The Baking Bride
I'm Heather and I met my fiance, Mark, ten years ago in college. We currently live in northern New Jersey, and are planning our wedding for 9/23/11 in my home state of Rhode Island. You might think that after all of those years of dating I already have every detail of our wedding planned, but I don't! I've enjoyed everything about planning so far, and I can't wait to share more of the wedding planning process with you.
The Long Distance Bride
My name is Lexi and I'm so lucky to be marrying my best friend on July 2, 2011. My fiance and I work at a university in Texas, but will be getting married in Indiana, in the city where I was born and my parents live. We are doing our best to incorporate a lot of DIY projects to save money and to give our weddings a personal touch! With 1,000 miles between us and our wedding city, planning has been a challenge, but I've loved every bit of it!
It's the Same But Different
I'm Lisa, and I'm so excited to marry my partner of six years, Catherine, on August 6, 2011! We will be tying the knot on Cape Ann in Massachusetts, which is a favorite vacation spot for my family and where Catherine and I took our first vacation. Since this will be a destination wedding for everyone invited, we are planning a full weekend of events that will really introduce our guests to an area we love. We have had so much fun planning our big day and I look forward to sharing this journey with you!
The Shabby Chic Bride
Hi, I'm Kayleigh, a multimedia specialist for government social marketing campaigns, a freelance travel and business writer based in Washington, D.C. and a new design/wedding enthusiast. As a Libra, I love to surround myself with beautiful things! When I'm not busy crafting, traveling or keeping my hyperactive beagle at bay, I like to sit in the sun, pop on the shades and people watch -- that's when I find my best inspiration. I'm marrying my fiance, Jay, on April 23, 2011 in a DIY, plantation wedding. Join in the shabby chicdom that is our big day!
