About Me: I’m a Gemini to the extreme. On one side, I’m a girly girl. I read countless bridal and fashion magazines, and have an obsession with keeping up with the latest Hollywood gossip. On the other side, I’m a sports fanatic. Despite being a full-time bride-to be, full-time research assistant, and part-time student, I’m also a full-time Red Sox fan from spring training to October, and a full-time Patriots fan from mini-camp to February. I devote almost as much time researching my for fantasy football team as researching for our wedding!
What A Coinkydink!

As it turns out, not only will we be married in the same church Mr. Toucan’s parents were married, our wedding date is pretty special too!

Above is a copy of Mr. Toucan’s great grandparents’ wedding announcement which was printed in The New York Times the day after they were married in June, 1917.
91 years later, Mr. Toucan and I will wed on the same day.
Does your wedding date have any special significance?
*Special thanks to Mr. Toucan’s dad for finding this

What a sweet story!
That’s wonderful! We’re getting married on the same day as my paternal grandparents.
What a neat thing to find out!
That’s awesome! We got married on my parents’ anniversary, which was so special for us and for them. 
How sweet. Ours nothing that special. For us it will be the day after our sixth year annivarsay of dating. Because our anniversary falls on a Friday and I was bluntly told by the other powers that be that it had to be on a saturday.
That’s awesome!
I do genealogy for my family, and I love it when I come across these kind of finds.
Your wedding is also fun with those play on numbers, too! 6-7-8!
My grandmother’s birthday is our wedding day - which when I set it, I didn’t even realize. She must be watching out for us from above!
our wedding is the day before my birthday and the day after my grandparents anniversary
we are getting married on the same day as my paternal grandparents and my parents. we are excited to be the 3rd generation…
Our wedding day is the day before my Mom’s birthday. I’m thinking of throwing her a surprise birthday brunch the morning after our wedding, since all those nearest and dearest to us will be in one place, and it’s one more reason to celebrate!
We got married the day before my parents 33rd anniversary!! It was a special day for us!
