About Me: I am the 2nd of 5 girls. Yes, you read that right, 5 girls. I don't know if there's anything interesting about my wedding that I can tell you but I was proposed to twice.
I got these from Mr. Ladybug’s sister-in-law today.
No I did not get a boob job. I just had extra padding that day. Woohoo!
I highly don’t recommend this. It’s just at the first reception I thought my boobs were gonna pop out because it wasn’t tight enough at the top so I wore a strapless bra to the 2nd reception on top of the cups…

Fiance's Age and Occupation: 35, Finance
Engagement Date: April 11, 2004
Wedding Date: June, 2006
Venue: Battery Gardens
About Me: I was born in the city of Donetsk in the former Soviet Union (now the Ukraine) and grew up in Brooklyn. Many of my parent's friends are from Russia and the Ukraine as well. We want all of our guests to have a great time and hit the dance floor so we've hired a band that can play both Russian and American music; not to mention a mean rendition of the Gypsy Kings and chair-raising hora!
I ordered these backpacks from Lillian Vernon for my flower girl and ring bearers. The bags came yesterday. They’re not the best quality — just unlined nylon — but you can’t expect much for $15! The girls’ bag is really cute, but the boys’ bag has a bit too much black in it, I wish it was blue or green instead.
I’ll load the bags…

The Wedding Date was on HBO last night so I watched it. I actually wanted to see this movie when it was in the theaters even though I knew it wouldn’t be that great. I’m a sucker for romantic comedies/chick flicks and no matter how bad they are, I kinda like them and can sit through them with no problem.
The story is about Kat, a single…

Tonight I have a hot date. It’s with my hubs. Zowie!
The occasion: 6 year anniversary.
Wow, 6 years! 6 years and we’re still laughing about stuff. Yesterday he put on jeans, a suit jacket, and a button down shirt to wear to work but he tucked the shirt in ’cause he was trying a “new” look.
“How’s it look hun?” he says to me. “Um, all you’re…

Last night Mr. Bee came home with a present for me.
“You spice up my life!” the package said. I knew it was something like hot sauce because I am a hot sauce lover like no other. So I opened up the package and BAM!
500 miniature bottles of tabasco!!!!!!!!! OMG this is a dream come true. Sniff, sniff. He got this for me so I can…

About Me: I live in New York but I'm planning a destination wedding in Negril, Jamaica. My fiance and I are high school sweethearts!
I confess … Mr. Ant and I are not an exemplary engaged couple. In fact, we’ve committed many wedding-planning sins. One of them was booking our venue sight unseen. That’s right, we put down a huge deposit based on mere website images and testimonials alone.
Well, we finally visited our venue and saw it with our own eyes for the first time … and? … And…

After extensive research last night, I booked 2 one way tickets from New York to Oakland for a wedding Mr. Bee and I are attending July 4th weekend. The cost? $663.80. (The price jumped up $120 in the 2 hours it took me to research and make a decision.) Luckily we were able to fly back for free on credits we’d accumulated.
People in their mid-twenties…

I’m actually a big fan of insoles - I wear them inside my boots and even some of my sneakers. Hopefully these babies can keep your feet comfy in your heels on the big day!
