Share this post: Bethesda North Marriott/iPhone Giveaway!
My bridesmaids are getting together to do wedding planning without me! (I love surprises!) But fortunately, they’re allowing me to join them for dinner and drinks with them afterwards at our favorite martini bar…
We are snowmobiling, and hopefully booking a florist AND a baker.
My boy and I are going on a retreat to NH; With a side trip to funspot — featured in the uber great film The King of Kong.
That is a beautiful hotel - right near my old house. The iPhone would be for my husband - he’s working on creating some iPhone apps and needs an iPhone to test them out. Great prize!
As a business professional who is constantly on the go, it will certainly help to make planning the wedding a reality!
We are going ring shopping and possibly picking on tuxes!
I’m never in one place for long, making it difficult to keep all of my to-do’s and calendar in one place.
I would love to have an iPhone; I work a super-busy job and it would be great to keep in contact with Mr. Dan while I was at work, and with work while I was with Mr. Dan!!
I have been dreaming of one of these for a long time now, but between purchasing and renovating our first home, and planning a wedding, it’s just not feasable right now.
Thanks for the great prize, Mrs. Bee :)!!
Because the apps are the coolest. Who wouldn’t want/need one?
I would love it! I’d need it for all the planning I do and to keep track of my busy life!
The closest member of the bridal party is 1.5 hours away. My fiance and I live in NY; his sisters (bridesmaids) and his parents live in CT; my sister (MOH), brother (groomsman) and another bridesmaid live in NJ; his best man lives in Massachussetts; another bridesmaid lives in VA; and my parents live in FL!!! I need this iPhone desperately!!!
An iphone would help me find potential vendors when I’m out driving around. I’m sure all of the other apps would be super handy when wedding planning too. I love to be organized! I would love to win an iphone.
I need one desperately to help organize a beyond busy life!
hmmm…I think the question just changed. Those pics of the Bethesda Marriot look SO much different from my last stay there a few years ago!
I need a iphone because my trusty palm treo is trying to call it quits on me. The charge barely lasts a day and it reboots itself at random times, but I’ve been trying to make it last until after the wedding so I can justify upgrading to the iphone (making sure to synch my data daily to my laptop so I don’t lose anything if it crashes). My phone is my second brain…without it I’d never be at the right place at the right time.
Oh…and this weekend I’m headed to AL to throw a baby shower for my MOH, register at some local boutiques, AND pick up “the dress” that arrived last week!
I live in a super small town and iphone would help me feel connected to “the real world!”
My fiance is a straight Mac guy . . . he has an Mac Book Pro, IPod Touch, IPod Nano, IPod G1 and of course an IPhone (which I got him for his birthday). He would be so excited for me to ‘join the masses’! AND, we can start our first family plan!
Because my current cell phone is so dated! It’s from before Bluetooth was included in most all phones, and also lacks a camera — I feel like I’m living in the dark ages!
As an event planner and a planner of my own wedding I am always in need of a phone and my poor phone is battered with years of use. An iphone would be great since I could sync it with my Macbook and be oh so effiecent!
Because it has so many cool apps I want to play with!
As someone trying to plan a wedding while traveling for work, I am sure an iphone would help me stay organized and get my DC-area wedding in gear.
I would love an iPhone! But unfortunately it would not work for me as I live in Europe :-(. But I would love to gift it to my mother as a thank you for being the amazing woman she is. She’s an interior designer by trade (though every spare moment the last year has been spent lovingly planning my wedding), and she’s constantly in the car, on the phone and trying to juggle an old spiral-bound city map while she goes from appointment to appointment. It’d be wonderful (and probablysafer) if she had access to all the things she needs (phone, email/Internet and maps all in one place). This would be a dream thank you for her that I could not financially swing myself! Thank you for the oppurtunity Bethesda Marriott!
i’ve had the same phone that came free with my cellphone plan five years ago, and I’m starting professional life soon!
that is a very generous giveaway! I am with AT&T and I would LOVE to upgrade to an iPhone. I do so much juggling with different schedules and stuff. It would be great to have total access with almost everyone at the touch of a screen
They are so fun and useful! It’d be great to have everything in one–I’m in love with the fun apps, especially being able to figure out the artist and title of any song!! I’d love to be able to give it to my fiance, whose had the same phone for the last 5 years!
Working two jobs, keeping the house in order, doing our finances and planning a wedding has lead to at least 4 different calenders all in various locations and totally unable to sync any of them together. An Iphone would make my life so much easier! And since my FI has one we could be on the same plan!
I could really use an iPhone… my Blackberry just decided to keel over the other day!
I need an iPhone because I am constantly getting lost and I would love to be able to use the GPS features!
The Iphone would be great so I could stay in contact with my vendors, friends and family with my email always available.
It’s take me a 40 subway to and from work. That’d be an hour and 10 minutes of work, entertainment and planning I can do instead of starring at everyone on the subway.
My fiance has been dreaming of his own iphone since it was released. He’s MAC oriented and this would be a thing I could give him! =) And maybe every now and again he’d let me play with all the cool features too!
I would love an Iphone to be able to keep planning my wedding while I am away from home. It would allow me to keep in touch with my vendors and bridal party.
My friend has one and it has this neat calorie counter option on it… how awesome is that? I would love to know how many calories i’m consuming when I go out to eat.. I think the phone would come in handy!
What a gorgeous renovation, with beautiful pictures! Since my bridal party is all over the US, I would love an iPhone to take great photos of the wedding planning process and email them to my girls so they’d be included every step of the way.
the calendar and maps would also be so helpful in organizing the appointments!
I would LOVE an Iphone. I cracked the faceplate on my phone a couple of weeks ago and need a replacement. Plus the Iphone is supercool and I can listen to music and such while working out. Pick me, pick me!!!
Other than the fact that it would make my guy SUPER jealous…
I get lost ALL THE TIME! It would be wonderful to be able to access GoogleMaps at anytime from anyplace!
Um, because it’s an iPhone? Mac products are simply amazing. My fiance has one and he calls it the Jesus phone because it “knows” everything. I’ve been thinking of upgrading to one for a long time… but was trying to hold out until after the wedding is over. Winning one would be awesome!
I need an iPhone to keep me organized! I already have to carry around extra stuff b/c I’m diabetic (blood sugar tester etc) so I don’t really have room in my purse to carry a planner. An iPhone would really come in handy b/c it could be my planner AND my phone. Plus I heard about the calorie counter and the level. The level would come in handy with all those home DIYs
I need an iphone so that i dont get lost and so that i dont rack up a bill using Information to get phone numbers!
Oh the sleekness of the iPhone!
I need it to declutter my life! Calender, phone, web–Boom!
All in a pretty package!
Also, Apple makes my heart go all fluttery (not as much as the fiance, but fluttery none the less)
Because my basic motorola camera phone won’t get on the internet and, sadly, cannot help us when we are lost anywhere. I am one of the few people left with a “regular” phone that has a ring that sounds like…what else? A telephone. Please boost me into the 21st century!
I need an iphone to keep in touch with my fiance while I live in across the country from him, and then my family when I move across the country to live with my new husband!
I’d love to be able to send photos of wedding planning to my fiance; and when I’m gone, I’ll be chatting/texting/sending pics lots with my parents, sisters and aunt.
(and…I LOVE apps!)
Wow, thanks Bethesda Marriott! An iPhone would mean my fiance and I would be on the same plan and not have to pay separate bills, plus all my minutes wouldn’t be used up with calls to him!
None of our wedding party lives in NY where we are — my family is all the way in Hong Kong — I need all the communication help I can possibly get. And what’s better for communicating than an iPhone?
I really need an iphone to stay uptodate and organized! I’m always running around trying to find wi-fi to check my email and to update the blog!!!
why does anyone really need an iPhone? we just all want one. it’s so purty!! & with all the apps who wouldn’t love it.
I’ve been wanting an iPhone for a while now! All the apps available look like such useful tools!
Because the iPhone is compatible with Google Docs. Why is the important, you say? I can plan my wedding on the go with my massive collection of planning spreadsheets only a click away.
Not to mention all of the other fabulousness for wedding planning…snapping shots and quickly emailing of reception decor, pulling up any contract that a vendor may have sent me…gee, I’m starting to wonder if I’d be able to plan my wedding now without one… 
I would LOVE an iPhone! I am constantly on the go and an iPhone is the perfect way to manage my calendar and stay connected to my fiance, friends, and family with the additional convenience of being able to get directions and locations of all my favorite destinations!
What a pretty hotel! I love the metro DC area! As far as the need for the iphone….I am always on the go and the iphone will make my life so much easier! All of the features of the iphone are fantastic and I desperately want one! Make me the happiest bride! (haha)
My hubby has an iPhone and I am so jealous! An iPhone would be the best way for me to get organized!
I need an iphone to give to my fiance. he works long hours and can’t talk on the phone and emailing each other would be great!
It would awesome to have an iphone. You have the convenience of information available to you at all times, plus you get to talk/text, listen to music, take pictures/video. It’s the all around go-to gadget! =)
I am forever out and about and needing to look up addresses/phone numbers and hate paying $1 to 411 every time! But the best part would be having a great way to show people my wedding pics!
I need an Iphone so maybe JUST MAYBE my fiance will read my wedding related emails (maybe!)
I’m mobile for my job most of the time and an Internet addict. Also, all my friends are making the switch and I’m still locked into Verizon
It would keep me super organized and the apps would definitely keep me a from going crazy just waiting
i have the oldest phone in the world - currently being held together by hope and tape! i tell my friends and anyone who sees my phone that i dont care about it and this one is just fine thank you very much but secretly, the iPhione would be like a dream to me! plus, i love the feature of hearing a song and it figures out what it is for you - that would def help me in this wedding planning! pick me!
I need an iPhone because I have this broken little flip phone and it’s time for an upgrade! Unfortunately, since we’re saving up for our wedding, my fiance will not agree to upgrading our 3 year old phones. I think the iPhone would be perfect for wedding research on the go!
My fiance and I have been deployed in separate combat zones for 13 months. When we get home we are going to want to both want iphones so we can be in constant contact!
My fiance is a recent mac convert. He’s adjusted to our macintosh computer, and is lusting over an ipod touch. I made the switch a long time ago, and am completely happy with my iphone.
We are on different provider networks, and spending so much time apart (he spends A LOT of time in his hometown, which is about 2.5 hours away from our apartment. Because of his disability, he has 2 doctors appointments a month, and because of this we are apart quite often). If we were on the same network we could talk all the time, for free!
Being the proud new owner of an iphone would make my fiance incredibly happy, we could talk all the time while we are apart, worry free, and it would make me ridiculously happy to give it to him!
Because the boy insists we can’t possibly live any longer without “smart” phones!
Having just had dinner in Bethesda last night, I’m intrigued to check out the new and improved Marriott!
I need an Ipohne because all the cool kids have them!! I sooo wanna be part of the “in crowd”… did I mention I have used my same phone for the last 8 years????
I need an iphone because my razor SUCKS…plain and simple and i can’t get a new phone for a while!
Well, for starters, who doesn’t WANT an iphone??
Here is why I NEED one…
I am a full time teacher, graduate student (writing my dissertation), and planning my wedding which is 3 months away! It would be super nice to have the convenience of the internet and other school/wedding related sources at my fingertips because I am constantly on the go working on my paper (due in 3 months as well)…and finishing up purchasing details for my big day!
I have the worst luck with these..but i’m going out on a limb and put my name in the hat cuz I soooo want it.
When I got engaged I was happy, but also very sad because I knew I’d have to be in my own wedding photos. I enrolled in a very strict 6mo. workout routine. My schedule is hectic and I’d love to have something to help me plan, keep me on track and stay focused. I could sync up the iphone to the calendar on my mac at home.
I’m a graphic designer and therefore a huge apple fanatic. I’ve been drooling over the iphone since before it was confirmed and was only a twinkle is Steve Jobs eye. Unfortunately I couldn’t justify buying anything as lavish as that magnificent phone with our wedding coming up.
It’d be a nice treat. =)
The ‘g/6′ button on my Palm sticks. Because of this, I constantly open up Google Maps, add endless strings of the letter ‘g’ to my text messages and web searches, and dial the number 6. This is most annoying when I am trying to input my voicemail password, which has no 6 in it. I want to Office Space my cell.
To add to my grief, my trusty iPod classic finally called it quits today.
I have a fiancé I don’t see enough, actually living outside Bethesda. Our relationship is sponsored by Southwest Airlines. With a wedding in twenty-two days, I NEED this iPhone.
My phone is a free cheap-o phone from VZ. Need I say more… 
i just want the new one. and i can give the fiance my first gen. lol
I would love to have an iPhone for all of the amazing things it can do. With my wedding coming up, being able to have everything in one place would be great.
I also really want the restaurant slots program. We always have problems deciding where to go for dinner and I think that would help!
most of my girlfriends have iphones or blackberrys. Having an iphone for myself can definitely help me keep my bridesmaids up to date with wedding planning and keep myself organized. I hear there’s tons of great apps. And of course I will be able to follow weddingbee no matter where I am!
My fiance has one and I’m so jealous of his ability to check email from anywhere. Just think of all the time I could be playing on wedding web sites that I’m losing now because I don’t have an iPhone! :o)
I would definitely pass along the iphone to my fiance, whose itouch just broke and has left him completely heartbroken! Everytime there is an apple commercial on tv he comments about how he’d love for us to be able to afford another itouch/iphone so that he could have all his music back, stay in touch easier, and play with all the cool applications while he rides the metro to work!
Can a bee win? Mr. Tiramisu needs an iphone so that he stops stealing mine all the time! (The pink holder doesn’t even stop him!)
We had to move to Scotland from Pennsylvania and are trying to do all of our planning with a huge time difference. The iphone would definitely keep everyone and everthing in check! Plus, I am a stay at home mommy and my man is at University which leaves no room in our budget for fun items like an iphone. Hope I win!!
I need one because of all the cool apps that will help me stay organized!
I need an iphone because my life is currently so chaotic. I am living in three different places and it’s a hassle to haul my laptop everywhere I go. This would be the perfect solution. Plus the iphone makes me swoon.
I would love an iPhone. It would make life easier, being in NC planning NY wedding can cause me to be on the phone a lot! This would help me to keep things more organized and at my fingertips.
An iPhone would be awesome! I could plan and research my wedding on the bus to and from work!
I need an iPHONE because my current cell phone is two years old and has been on an OIF tour and has dealt with the wear and tear of being stuck in a military uniform pocket.
Also, I don’t own an MP3 player (really, I don’t!). So I don’t have a means to show off my songs (wedding songs, couples 1st dance song, daughter/daddy dance, etc). I can’t show off my photos of my fiance and myself, or pictures of wedding themes to my friends.
This phone will allow me to be able to effortlessly be able to communicate with friends and family instead of having to find a new phone once I return back in the states (since I’m still in OIF). It’s make things difficult to plan weddings with an ocean in betwen.
I need an iPhone because I work in the technology field, but my phone is 5 years old and I am so embarrassed by it! All of my money is going to my student loans, so I don’t have spare cash to buy a snazzy new phone on my own. I’d love to have the ability to check my email anywhere - it would make my work so much easier!
In the realm of wedding planning … I have less than five months left to plan and none of my bridesmaids live closer than 835 miles away! An iphone would help me stay connected.
On a compelely different note, I’m a reporter and am out and about the same amount of time that I’m in the office … and occassionally miss important calls about breaking news becuase of it. Of course, with the state of print journalism today, there’s no way my company could afford to provide one for me.
I need an iPhone because I prefer smaller purses. It is like a jigsaw puzzle trying to get my cell phone, Blackberry, and iPod all jammed into my purse. Introduce some lip gloss and my wallet and things get very dicey!
I need an IPhone because my phone is so SO old and cruddy. Because we’re getting married this year, an IPhone is so out of the budget…..I think we may be the only couple in the world who doesn’t at least own one!!! Plus I love pictures, Facebook, weddingbee.com, etc. which are all accessible on the awesome IPhone!!
I’m graduating soon, and potentially moving away from my honey. After spending nearly every day together for the last four years, a separation would take some getting used to. I know an iPhone would help bridge the gap. Also, the ability to look up directions on the go would be a major perk if I’m living in an unfamiliar city!
I am always searching for just the right vendor or looking for inspirations for all the wedding ideas that pop into my head and it makes me want to reach for the internet, but alas my phone has non! So the Iphone would be spectacular! It would also let me keep in better touch with my friends family and coworkers, oh and with all those apps, who knows what else it could help me with! Probably everything!
I am an Apple girl at heart… raised on Mac computers, my first laptop is a MacBook, and of course I have an iPod Nano! I need to add to my collection… plus, with wedding spending, who can afford to buy all these latest gadgets!
And….. it’s pretty!
An iphone would help me keep in touch with my family and friends more consistently… and they’re so cute!
I need that because my 10 year old cell phone is on its last leg, and I think its about time I got with the times.
I love everything Apple. I always have had Macs, I got the very first (think actual turning wheel) iPod, and I’m just dying for an iPhone. I think they are much better (and cooler) than Blackberry’s and I really need to breakdown and get something that let’s me check my email on the go! Plus I need to be able to find restaurants when I’m out, and there’s an app for that!
I’m forced to keep using my so out-of-date cellphone and with an iPhone I would be able to check and write emails and even surf the net!
oh boy, I need an iphone b/c I’ve had an apple computer my whole life, have at&t and NEVER remember to look up directions BEFORE leaving the house.
Because my current phone is dying!
I’m a multi-tasker and starting a floral business. I’ll need the phone to make sure I return all emails and requests from my brides.
I would love an iphone so my mom and I can quickly send photos and ideas back and forth to each other as I plan a wedding in her yard, from 2500 miles away! (oh the poor woman, I think she’s a saint!)
I’ve been thinking about getting an iphone since they came out and now would be a great time for one! I’ve been a mac user all my life so I definitely want to support apple! I am starting out in the photography business and have no portable way to organize my life, and my razer is not so professional looking. My current phone’s battery is also losing its endurance so I’d love to be able to replace it with an iphone!
I’ve wanted an iPhone for a while now and have been holding it out as a dangling carrot for myself to wrap up a few personal goals. I think it would be a fantastic tool to add to my life and would make staying connected and organized a million times easier!
as a gift for my wonderful fiancee, who is badly in need of a new phone, and is spending all of his “fun” extra money on wedding expenses!
I am starting a new job that requires more travel than I am used to… an iPhone would be a great way for me to keep in contact with my fiance!
I would be thrilled to win an iPhone…I’m always years behind in using the latest technology, and this would bring me to the forefront!
Who doesn’t need an iPhone?? I know I would love to have one because my fiance and I are long distance - it’s so frustrating to not be able to send him pictures of wedding things and get his feedback!! (And for that matter, it’s just frustrating to try and talk to him on my dilapidated old phone.) I can’t even text him… is that enough of a sob story to score an iPhone??
An iphone would be such a great help! My wedding party is all spread out and the wedding is coming up so fast (July). I’m also addicted to my organizer, and it would be SO much easier to have it on the iphone as opposed to the actual paper planner I have now. The iphone would just make life so much easier
I need the iphone because my cat just knocked my PDA into her water fountain/dish thingy and I ended up loosing all of my data for my wedding this summer! Now I’m using and old pay as you go phone because I cant spring for something nice (and expensive!) with a wedding looming in juts 5 short months!
I am in desperate need of an iphone because my current phone is not reliable at all. It doesn’t give me my phone call or texts and it randomly just shuts off. I need a new phone in the worst way. Being a lover of all things Mac, it would be the perfect addition to my geeky family.
i am always on the go, and constantly needing to check emails, directions, websites etc, and my poor fi’s always having to give up his iPhone so i can do what i need to do… this way i can have my own!
Wow, what a great contest. It’s not me who needs the iPhone (I have one). I would give it to my fiance who is constantly stealing mine to look up addresses and such. I would love to be able to give one to him!
I’ll be honest, an iphone isn’t something I “need” but something I WANT very much!!! It woudl be a great way to stay organized!
I need an iPhone because my current (ancient) phone takes 90 seconds to go into “take a picture” mode and turns off about 50% of the time I attempt to send a text message!
Because on a daily basis, no kidding, I say, man I wish I had an iPhone then I could (fill in the blank) right now. The coolest thing for me would be being able to Google on the go. It would be so helpful to be able to compare prices as I’m out shopping. Plus, I’m working on my bridal body and would love to have access to the apps that would let me track my diet and exercise. Last, but certainly not least, they’re just so pretty!
Boy do I need a new iphone. My phone just pooped out and it’s time to replace it. My palm pilot died as well and I lost all my info. The problem is that it can’t be replaced.
That hotel is beautiful!!!
I would love to have an iPhone to keep in touch and keep my hubby up to date on my whereabouts since I work two jobs and he is currenly in the process of getting layed off 
I have never had texting on my phone and it drives him nuts so that would be a convenient addition with the iPhone!!
I could use an iphone so I can stop carrying around a purse full of electronics: an mp3 player, a cellphone, a camera, and a pda.
I need an iphone because I’ve always wanted one! And, because it has so many great features!
Oo, an iPhone! I don’t usually enter contests, but I would love to have an iPhone because:
1) I have no sense of direction. None. And you can use it while you’re walking places! This would help me find the bridal shops I keep getting lost trying to locate once I’ve parked my car in the city.
2) I am planning a wedding from California that will take place in Kentucky. My bridesmaids live in Oregon, Germany, Ohio and Kentucky. My parents live in Michigan. There’s a lot of phone time
3) I’m a Mac person and an AT&T customer already!
4) The apps are great for calorie tracking and planning weddings, two things I’m spending a lot of my time on these days. I don’t have a wedding planner, just me and my giant binder of wedding contracts and ideas. An electronic repository of information would be so helpful!
5) I love the iPhone!
An iPhone would be spectacular for all of my to-dos and wedding planning! How great would it be to take pics of dresses, or favors, or anything and email it immediately to your friends and family for opinions!?!?
I need an iPhone to give to my wonderful fiance, because his old Blackberry just up and died on him yesterday!!
I would love an iPhone to use their application where you can log your food intake, calories, exercies, etc to help me get in shape to fit into a wedding dress.
I have approximately 723 electronic devices to help me keep in touch with people, plan my wedding, do my schoolwork, make memories, and so much more.
With an iPhone, I would have it all in one place.
Plus, I’m FINALLY switching to AT&T in less than ONE MONTH and I would LOVE to have an iPhone for the transition!
A. because they are the coolest!
B. to keep up with everything from work to school to family
I feel like i have the oldest cell phone ever…seriously it’s a total zac morris phone next to all my friends’ (and fiances!) blackberries and touch screen phones. I would love the iphone to use all the cool apps it has and finally stay connected to everyone!!!
it would take my mind off of wedding planning !
I need an iPhone because none of my invited guests live in the same state!! We’re all over the place and an iPhone would really help me organize and prepare for all my Colorado, New Mexico, Illinois, Wisconsin, and California guests!! I love the internet features! Incidently, I’ll be in DC in June!!
I would’ve loved to have gotten married there, but they’re already booked on my date
I need an iphone because I can’t be everwhere at once, I work in a secure facility, so I can’t do anything online or on the phone when I’m at work, just when I’m working at home or when I have a few minutes to step outside and use my cell phone. If I had an iphone then I could get a lot done on the internet during a few quick breaks right outside my office!!
I need an iPhone for when my soon-to-be husband deploys to Afghanistan in July, 2 months after our wedding. With having messenger and phone features, it’ll make the one-sided communication thing a whole lot easier and I’ll never miss a chance to talk to him while he’s away. I’d really love this!
We need an iphone to organize the massive amount of upcoming to-do items we have!
I need an I phone to keep with all the DIY things I want to get done; it doesn’t hurt that Wedding bee is only click away on this phone either :O)
I need an iPhone so I can check my wedding blogs from anywhere!
I would love to have an IPhone as most of my communications is done through emails and SMS texting. I’m also an internet junkie. I have a giant Google Reader list of blogs that I’m always trying to catch up on and read about news, the economy, politics, food, design, and yes, wedding planning! I also want to have something that easy to jot down ideas, track photos, URLs, etc. This would be such a great tool in planning a wedding and keeping my life organized!
Future Husband and I are in a very long distance relationship! The iPhone would make the “goodnight, love” phone calls that much sweeter…
I would LOVE an iPhone! Mr. S and I have been pegged by various groups of friends as the “busiest couple in the world.” And we are! So we would love this phone to help us organize and coordinate events as well as having a little fun with it to take a little break from our hectic, busy lives. We definitely can’t afford one ourselves for at least another 2 years.
My main reason would be so that I could get online and on facebook on the iphone instead of at work (that way i’m in no danger of getting in trouble lol).
I heart organization and multi-tasking and having everything at my fingertips for planning not only wedding events but parties and more…would be just perfect!
An iphone would be the BEST gift I could gibe my FH. He is helping so much with the various costs of the wedding that it would be so nice to be able to pay him back with something that he has been WANTING for so long. Crossing my fingers!
Because the phone I have now is terrible…it takes forever just to get one text message to send! Also, I so fuzzy heart all the apps!
Because as a newlywed, a daughter living 2 states away from her parents, and a bridesmaid twice over for wedding this June and next September, I have a ton of people to keep in contact with!!! Plus, I’m dying for the “level” app - I mean, come on, who isn’t?
I don’t need one, I just want one! They’re sooo pretty and cool!
I would absolutely love to have an iphone. I’ve wanted one for so long. So many of the applications look both fun and useful. It would be especially great to be able to check for directions, traffic conditions, and for checking email.
It would also be wonderful to have the internet on hand at any moment to answer all the random questions that always pop into my mind when I’m out and about!
Why I would love to win the iphone is that I go to school, work full time and planning a wedding all at once. I have trouble keeping all my appointments on schedule and this will help me become more organized. I could also keep pictures of all my wedding items and if anyone asks I can have it available instantly as well as if I see something inspirational I can take a picture for later. It will also help me with driving directions to get to all my places without relying on my fiance for directions!!!
I need an iphone because my fiance and I are long distance and I can never remember how to get to the airport! I always get lost! On top of that, an iphone would really help when I’m on a plane trying to figure out how delayed the flight will actually be! I could even search for a new flight and get a new ticket using this fancy phone.
It’s almost become a necessity .. as in the iphone. His family lives in Boston, the wedding and all our vendors are there, we live in NY, my parents live in Dominican Republic but will be in Korea for a long time before the wedding, my sisters live in Michigan and my MOH lives in LA. We are both in very busy jobs and with all the different time zones it’s hard to communicate as is, but not having a useful gadget like that has made it even harder and expensivo! Thanks for the awesome prize!
Ditto Ms. Sapphire! We are definitely the busiest couple in the world. An iPhone will help us alleviate some stress.
I have an ancient old Treo 755p, and it keeps me up to date on everything I need. Sure it’s old, but I love it. So why am I entering this contest? I have a gadget obsessed fiance who would love it. I always make him cut back on his gadget spending, and this would be perfect for him.
My life has been fairly laid back, but I just got a sales position so I feel like it’s really going to speed up quickly! Having an iPhone would really help me out.
I’d love an iphone to help keep me sane in scheduling and tracking everything– and I could even organize our playlist on it!
I have a professional job and also go to school during the day mix that in with wedding planning and I’m never able to keep things straight. I would love to have an iphone to help me organize my life.
i’m craving me a iphone because it just FABULOUS! phone, emails, internet, directions, movies, games, pics, music, notes, calculator, & much more in the palm of my hand!
I would love to have an iPhone! I’m diabetic, and I would really love to have a device that I can keep with me at all times to keep track of what I’m eating, what my bloodsugar is, and how much insulin I’m giving myself, as well as how much I’m exercising and what impact it’s having! I’m trying relaly ahrd to lsoe weight and keep my bloodsugar numbers under tight control at the same time, and an iphone would be SO helpful for its ability to save and send electronic information like this!
I need an iphone to stay up to date on all of my wedding planning! Really…I would love to have it to use while dress shopping so I can google the dress I love and see it I can get it anywhere cheaper!
oh I would love to have an iphone to keep my life organized and be able to access info anytime! (look what technology has done to us!)
I would love to have an iphone so that I could read the entries of Weddingbee when I’m away from the computer!!! It would be so helpful to keep organized during the wedding planning process and plus I am a recent Apple convert!
With my purse full with my phone, work blackberry and Ipod, it would be great to get the iPhone to condense everything into one!
I’d love to have an iphone! Oh that would help organize me so much! I’d be able to keep track of my daily life, personal appointments, business appointments, etc. I am jsut starting out in my own little business and this would be a HUGE help!
I need an iPhone so that I can read Weddingbee on the go without having to refresh my tiny Motorola Q screen!
keeping in contact with everyone one involved–from my girls to the vendors–will be so much easier with an iphone!
Having your contacts and your calender all on the same devise! How lucky could a girl be, especially a bride to be. An I phone may be a wedding planning essential.
Because my cell phone sucks and I really have to have the level app so that I can hang all of my wedding pictures
I so need an iphone my phone is soo outdated and would love to have all the cool apps to help me keep organized
I haven’t spoken to my fiancee in months! Help! I need an Iphone!
I need an iphone b/c it’s cool and hip..so I don’t have to lug my laptop with me everywhere…;-)
I need an iphone becuase I dropped my phone in the bathtub, and it no longer works. I got a new one, but my FI put it in the washing machine I promise to take better care of my new phone, and if it was an iphone I could rock out while I’m at the gym! Gotta lose those lbs. for the wedding, and to win the biggest loser challenge I’m in
i had to tape up my current phone so that it wouldn’t fall apart. new phone? yes please!
I need one because shortly after my fiance and I got engaged (which was only 3 weeks ago–and by shortly I mean the same week) we both got laid off (we workED together for our entire relationship ha). We are both currently jobless-job hunting, trying to plan a wedding over a year in advance so we can afford it, and hopefully not losing our house for not being able to pay our mortgage! GAH! Can you say stress?!?!? It is crucial that we start planning NOW so we can afford everything, but it’s difficult with no income. We are out an about searching for jobs and looking for venues. It would be helpful to be able to do both at the same time! THIS is why I need an I phone.***Disclaimer*** I am not the type to throw myself a pity party. Our outlook is this: if we can get through this (and we will) we can get through anything!
Well, I’ve been married for a while and my husband has a phone…the sad thing is that he won’t get me phone service (cell phone) until we can afford a good phone. Well, it’ll be a cold day in Hellow (LOL) before I’ll ever get a phone
Please count me in, I could use this sooooo bad!!!
-barbarabaker
I need one because I miss my iBook (rest in peace) and my budget doesn’t allow for a new iBook, much less an iPhone right now! This would be super cool!
I need one for my guy, as his imitation Blackberry just isn’t cutting it any more!
What an awesome prize. I need an Iphone because my cell phone echos, I just gave my ipod touch, which I loved, to my fiance so he can use all of the apps for his his job at the hospital, and well best of all it would great for wedding planning.
I need one because my although guy makes games for the iphone for a living, I can’t even afford one on which to play his games!
an iphone would help me check traffic reports on my daily 1.5hr commute to and from work.
I need an iphone because it would limit the extra items I would need to carry around! I’m always trying to juggle my phone, camera, ipod, gps, date book, ect. I’m starting to feel like mary poppins with my gigantic purse. Having an iphone would allow me to be FREE leave all the other junk at home!!
it has all the apps i need to plan the wedding while away from my computer. =)
I need one because I don’t have access to a computer all day while I’m working! I’m out of the loop until I get home!
I’d love to be able to communicate with the fiance more since we are going to be in a long distance relationship for the rest of our engagement and neither of us live where the wedding will be.
I would give it to my sister (my BFF and MOH) who seriously needs a new phone. She would just DIE if she opened her wedding gift and saw an iphone!!!:)
i need to be on my google calendar, all the time.
I would love to have the iphone because I need an upgrade. I have had my phone for the last year and I know I could upgrade but with the budget and having one of us only work because one of us has been laid off has made it difficult with expense and the upcoming wedding. My phone is in really bad shape. But I feel that my wedding is more important that I could upgrade my phone after the wedding. This would help me at least eliminate one cost expense and wont have to worry about my calls being dropped or not getting messages.
My fiance has been in and out of the country for work during the whole of our engagement. I’d give it to him to be in constant communication.
I need an iphone so I can download the lightsaber application and walk around looking like a doofus.
I would love to have internet access at all times! I am constantly thinking of things I need to google, and with the iphone i would be able to do it immediatley!
I would use an iphone to be able to weddingplan on the go. I would totally get mobile me and hook up my mac so that i can edit anything on the go!
I need the iPhone because I have a lot of trouble keeping track of my appointments and contacts. Plus I need to be plugged into email all the time for my work, and I have no way to check it at the moment when I am not at my desk!
I will be indebted to you until FOREVER if I won this. I don’t need one necessarily, but I sure do WANT one! It’s my husband’s birthday, actually, and he would love me forever if I gave it to him. =o)
I don’t need one by my husband is dying for one. It would be the best gift I could probably give him.
Since we are planning to have our church wedding in our country of origin, I have to be connected to the internet 24 hours a day so I’ll know if I received an email from the vendors I am contacting with. My sister is the one who visits the churches/venues we are eyeing for so being online 24/7 helps keep me posted on the wedding preparation’s developments.
Awesome giveaway! I want an iPhone to manage the chaos: wedding in March, dissertation chapter due before that, house-hunting after. We’re staying at the Bethesda Marriott for a wedding this summer.
I so need one to keep up with all the blogs I am following! I am always on the internet and it would be perfect if I could have access when I’m on the go as well (There are some places where one can’t bring their macbook)
Thanks weddingbee for another great giveaway!
I just got a new job as a nurse & boy am I overwhelmed. I’d love the iphone to keep track of everything from my new work schedule to my hanging-by-a-thread social life. Plus it would keep my back from breaking, carrying around my laptop all the time when all I really need is email!
i need an iphone to better organize my life and FI’s life! I could clear so much clutter with an iphone- no long will I need my address book, calendar, ipod.
Yay for contests! I would LOVE an iPhone! It’ll not only help me organize my appointments and events all in one place, I’d love to be able to email pictures to my mom, so she would see what I’m up to! (She’d get too tired from meds if I bring her along).
My phone broke, and am currently using my mom’s old razr which is in bad shape - I would LOVE an I-Phone!!
I no longer have any access to email at work! I have been coveting one of these babies recently so I can check my emails during the day again!!!!
I need an iPhone because I don’t even have a regular cell phone. I do believe I’m the last person in the universe without one. Other than the Amish, of course.
What a fantastic prize! I would give the iPhone to my fiance so that we could better plan when we’re apart. He has a razr which is old and it’s hard for him to text (he gets frustrated b/c it takes so long without a qwerty keyboard). His camera part of the phone doesn’t work either, so sometimes when he goes to check something out he’ll be trying to explain it to me. I’m a very visual person so even when he’s describing something awesome I won’t have any idea what he’s talking about! An iphone would solve the texting problem and the camera issue! Plus, it’s an iphone and fiancee is in love with music.
It would make my life so much easier! I am a medical student and will be entering my clinical years one month after the wedding (and is sadly the reason that we will not have a honeymoon, I need to study for the boards instead!) and need to have a PDA for when I am on the wards. The main medical software that I need has just been released for the iPhone and everyone recommends that we get it! I sadly, cannot afford it, with my student loans and wedding expenses! But it would be a wonderful way to keep on top of planning and then once I am married it will help me with my education and keeping in contact with my new husband while I’m on call during our first year of marriage (eek!).
I used to live by the Bethesda Marriott! I am the kind of person that needs to know the answer to questions right away, so and iphone would help me stay up to the minute and get everything done on time. If I don’t check right away, then I usually forget!
I need the iphone because I would like to check the internet and my email anywhere and anytime I want to!
I want the iphone because is so useful because it has so many features.
I need one because I am currently sporting a 1997 nokia..ughh I need an update haa
I am overseas right now, but moving back home 2 weeks before my wedding. Having a brand new iPhone would surely solve my dilemma of getting a new phone when I arrive (and help with the tight budget of setting up life in American again!)
Not only is the iphone look really really cool, I need for mainly after the marriage. My fiance is going to police academy and we will be apart for a while, right after we get married!!!:(
But the phone would be a great way to keep in touch!
i need an iphone because my husband will not stop bugging me for one!!!
One simple reason…… to simplify my life!
Why do I need an iPhone? Better question is why don’t I . . . I’ve got wedding planning stuff all over the place, and lugging it around is back-breaking. An iPhone would give me a place to put it all together
Why do I need an iPhone? Do we ever need anything? Of course not…but I WANT it…reeeeeeeeally bad…..perhaps I’m the only one left on this world that doesn’t have one.
An iPhone would help me to keep in touch with everyone and keep myself organized!
My husband needs an iPhone desperately. He is an engineer for Holiday Inn and he is always on the go. The iPhone has some great applications that would help him keep track of his appointments, to-do’s, shopping lists (as he is the main cook) and he would have the internet at his fingertips 24-7. That comes in handy so you don’t have to call your wife at 3:30 in the morning to ask her to look up specifications on a boiler from the 1970’s because it’s blowing up! (True story, and I managed to save the hotel with my speedy detective work!!)
My fiance, who lives in Seattle, bought me an iPhone for Christmas but does not have one himself. I live in Athens, GA and on a graduate student’s budget I cannot afford to reciprocate the gift. I LOVE my iPhone and will never have another phone! (until they come out with a new version and hopefully by then I can afford it!)
I need an iphone because I am always getting lost and GPS on my phone would save me from going insane while planning my wedding from 300 miles away. I love that everything you ever need email, calender, directions is right at your fingertips.
I would adore an IPhone for the following reasons:
1. To stay constantly connected to my long-distance love
2. To receive instant updates from the lovely ladies of Weddingbee
3. To help me as one less thing I need to worry about in my first year out in the real world!
As a mom of 2 children under the age of 3 i am constantly on the go, attempting to go to school, work part time, and to top this off plan a wedding for this October to a man who is sadly very tied to his busy work schedule. We recently moved into our first home and with this has come a variety of issues, not only is it far from our family/bridal party/friends in general it is also making the commute for my sons therapy (( he is special needs with Schizencephaly )) much longer and a larger hassle than a toddler and newborn traveling were before! an Iphone is a dream to a young mom/wedding planner/student like me but frankly with kids at home i can’t justify spending money on something that solely benefits me. :]
I would love an iPhone because my current phone does not support picture messaging, and my dear friend three states away just texted me a pic of her new baby girl and I can’t see it. Also, the iPhones are just amazing! Love the camera, the GPS, the texting … everything.
My phone is two and a half years old–last time I took it in to get fixed (the ringer stopped working), the salesguy goes, “When did you GET this thing?” Add to that my compulsive need to google the answer to any and every question that comes my way, and I’m the perfect candidate for an iPhone!
My fiance is ALWAYS on his iphone. I need an iphone of my own just so I have something to keep me entertained while my husband-to-be is fiddling around with his!
I NEED an iphone because I spent a small fortune on an LG enV “smartphone” that is dumb as a box of rocks! I was talked out of a Blackberry, & my stupid phone cannot send pix, cannot text google, let alone access gps, email or the internet. I’ll stop here…my blood is boiling! I can’t even begin to think of affording a new phone @ this point (out of work w/ a wedding in the works)! What’s left to say? –An iphone is THEE coolest!
wow who doesn’t need an iphone! my fiance desperately does because he is starting his own business and needs something to keep him organized!!
for all the planning I do!
for the great apps, to keep in touch with him and so i don’t spend wedding funds on a phone!
drool. because they are awesome!
I’d like an iPhone b/c #1, my phone contract is nearly up. I need an upgrade from my ultra sensitive, doesn’t do much LG chocolate (i have no texting too.. i know i’m living in the stone age.. lol). This new techie gadget would be a tremendous help when planning for my spring 2010 wedding
Please pick me!!!
I’m always on the go and my BlackBerry really just can’t take it any more. Its constantly freezing or rebooting itself. I’ve had to do a software reinstall (I think its like the OS) as a result I’ve lost TONS of data because its SO sporadic I wasn’t backed up one of those times
I need to stay connected to my emails (and life) and this BB relationship just isn’t working anymore. I want to try an iPhone and move away from BB buuuut I just can’t afford to make that switch :-/
I definitely need an iPhone because I haven’t updated my phone since years ago! And the iPhone would really help me get organized as it can function well as a PDA too - not like my current phone
So I can finally stay in touch with everyone, instead of forgetting to return emails. Plus, I could get my online time on my compute rather than at home…
Oh wow I would love an iphone… we recently changed our wedding date from spring 2010 to this coming summer, so I have SO MUCH TO DO in the next few months to pull everything together. I’m always so antsy when I’m away from my computer because I feel like I could be getting so much more done–an iphone would certainly help that!
Oh wow I would love an iphone… we recently changed our wedding date from spring 2010 to this coming summer, so I have SO MUCH TO DO in the next few months to pull everything together. I’m always so antsy when I’m away from my computer (during my commute especially) because I feel like I could be getting so much more done–an iphone would certainly help that!
OOPS! Didn’t mean to have it there twice.. sorry!!! Hope it doesn’t disqualify me…
I need an iphone because I am a Mac geek! I have converted every roomate/immediate family member over to the Mac side. I also have far too many “devices” to keep track of. I never know what my calendar looks like because I keep it on my computer, and I never know how to get anywhere because I leave my GPS at home. This would make life so much easier.
I need an iPHONE because my current cell phone is two years old and has been on an OIF tour and has dealt with the wear and tear of being stuck in a military uniform pocket.
I don’t own an MP3 player (really, I don’t!). So I don’t have a means to show off my songs (wedding songs, couples 1st dance song, daughter/daddy dance, etc). I can’t show off my photos of my fiance and myself, or pictures of wedding themes to my friends.
This phone will allow me to be able to effortlessly be able to communicate with friends and family instead of having to find a new phone once I return back in the states (since I’m still in OIF). It’s make things difficult to plan weddings with an ocean in betwen.
My husband wants one desperately, but instead of getting one or even basic things like new clothes, we have to save money for auto parts. He thinks an iPhone will bring us out of the dinosaur age.
Well, to be honest, I don’t really NEED the iphone. It’s one of those things that I have wanted for a while, but definitely in these tough times need to put my money towards necessities. So it would be a fun little surprise to win this! ; )
I need an iphone to give to my fiance as a wedding present. He currently has an ancient flip-phone that he has had for 4 years that people have asked “Is that your phone? no really, is that your phone?” when he pulls it out. No camera, no calendar, no video or picture capabilities, everything is in pixels, and don’t even ask about internet, maps, or games! He is a modern and cool guy with an old and crappy phone because he can’t justify spending money on a better one. I think he deserves better, so I would love to surprise him with a shiny new iphone!
Having an iPhone would make my life so much easier! My husband and I are newlyweds, but we’re long-distance right now while I finish my last semester of law school–I “commute” every weekend from Arkansas to DC to see him so I spend a lot of time in the airport and coming and going to and from the airport. Right now I have a $15 go phone that is AWFUL–the phone would definitely streamline my crazy life, especially being able to call him, check email and flight schedules anywhere I am!
I live in NYC and it feels like I’m the only person here without an iphone! I would love to have one since we’re planning our wedding long-distance — it would let me take photos at vendor meetings and share them with my fiance and mom (since my current circa-1995 phone doesn’t have a camera!).
All the apps would come in handy too, especially the google maps so I can find my way around when going on appointments!
Because traffic is horrible on I66 and its a nightmare trying to visit vendors. The music soothes me, and the apps keeps me preoccupied in traffic.
I need an iphone because my gmail and weddingbee are blocked at work.
I really could use a wePhone, but I’ll settle for the iPhone. I am practicing saying ‘WE’ instead of ‘I’. It’s all in fun!
My father(who’s 65 yrs old) lost his job on New Year’s Day,he’s been rejected by several employers due to his age. I think this would lift his spirits and this would help him look for jobs, make new contacts, keep his appointments, track things to do, etc.
My original post is #232 and this is a follow up;
Since then ALL of my emails *poof* gone! Its like I jinxed myself.
I need one because I don’t have one and I really need a new phone. Mine is 4 years old!
I work at a start-up company and as a consequence often end up staying at work way later that I should. This cuts back on my wedding planning time by alot. In short, I need an iPhone to keep up! I communicate with vendors via email and phone alot, and an iphone would allow me to do so on the fly!
I need an iPhone because I want to take pictures of my grandma and keep them with me all day. She’s in a nursing home on Staten Island and I’m in Brooklyn working full time, so I only get to see her once a week.
I need an iphone because it has the ability to give me directions! I am chronically lost
I need an iphone because I am one of the only ones in my group of friends without a smart phone and doesn’t text. I need to get in the 21st century.
I really would like an iPhone… I am about to graduate nursing school and I would use it to put a program in it that would allow me to look up medications..
I hear such great things about the iPhone like gps, apps, and email on the go. All of these can help ‘change my life’ like people who have one say!

Thanks!
I would LOVE an iPhone for the following reasons (in no particular order): 1) i’m chronically left wondering ‘what’s the name of that song’ & would like to remedy that with the shazam app. 2) my current phone has a pixelated screen and is from the last millenium. yes, that’s right, MILLENIUM. 3) i’d get to play games on it but still *look* like i’m keeping busy at work. 4) i’m a soon-to-be veterinarian (3.5 months!) & am amazed at the apps available for basic drug dosages, lab values, etc. It’s vet school in an app! 5) i drool (just a little bit) every time i see the iphone commercial on tv. just a little bit.
I have 3 months left and still alot to do, the iphone will help me better organize myself and plan where ever i am.
i am such a klutz and i forget things, an iphone will help keep me organized.
Ooh, an iPhone would be great. Why do I need an iPhone?
1. It would help so much trying to keep everything from law school to wedding planning straight.
2. The internet capabilities on the iPhone are amazing, and it would allow me to actually check full websites and emails instead of seeing a “phone”-friendly version of a site.
3. Visual voicemail would make it so I could check the important calls that I need to return immediately and get to the other calls later.
4. It would just be nice to have a phone that has all those capabilities packed into one small device. It can pick up networks, it has apps for everything you can imagine, and it allows you to organize, prioritize, and it’s constantly updating to make it better.
I could so use an iPhone just to make things easier to stay connected with Mr. Ghost while we sort out all of the details to our day and keep our relationship strong. We’re long distance right now {whimper} and an iPhone would be just the ticket.
I’m a medical student, and all of the software I have to run requires a smart phone, and the iPhone is the ultimate smart phone!
Besides being one of the cool kids and having a uuber hot phone, I need an Iphone DESPERATELY for a few reasons.
1.) Since I found out that my blackberry hates liquid (or being dropped in it), I have been without a phone for weeks. Since my parents are unable to help with costs of wedding planning, FH and I are both paying for it ourselves. Needless to say, I had to make a decision. Money for a new phone or money for a deposit. My venue is pretty happy.
2.)I stood in AT&T playing with an Iphone until they closed one evening. I don’t know why I torture myself, I just do. I can’t afford it, but I want it.
3.)Being that the closet person in my bridal party is 4 hours away, I need to be connected to SOMEONE via phone. I even thought of driving to Atlanta/Tampa to just say “Hey y’all” ’cause I haven’t talked on the phone with them in forever. Lame, I know.
I live 10 minutes from Bethesda! My cell phone is on it’s last legs… I sure could use an upgrade!
Wonderful giveaway!
I work in government and work long hours. I can’t use my work computer for personal work and it’s really hard for me to stay on top of wedding planning when I can’t do any of it between the hours of 7 am and 9 pm. An iPhone would enable me to at least make a small dent during the day in taking care of the things I need to get done so that I’m not swamped when I get home late!
It will be an awesome addition to my wedding planning and my teaching. It is a great way to have access to information at anytime to share my students. What a great way to keep in touch and a top of the billion to do list for a weding.
I PHONE! is one of those things that you notice everyday when your at work and your coworkers are checking there email, driving in your car and the car next to you in talking in one, shopping at the market and the teenager next to you is checking her facebook..i mean its everywhere!! i hide my phone in shame…plz oh plzzzzz let me have one of these cool phones to where i can use and see what its all about! i wanna check my emails, fb, play cool games, download music and of course, check weddingbee on the go!
My mister just got one, but I opted not to. Now that my eyes have been opened to the wonders of iphone, I realize I need one too! What a great contest!
I would love an iPhone because I am a lifelong Mac user, a teacher, graduate student, writer, photographer, and sometimes wedding-planner! It would be amazing to be able to jot down inspiration for writing projects, make notes on dissertation ideas, take photos as I walk across the river, and schedule all my appointments for teaching and the job search all in one place. Not to mention that it would be a great help in organizing our wedding, which involves guests from eight countries. Another huge plus from my fiance’s perspective — he really wants a GPS, for all those little side trips and hikes we’ll need to take in order to keep our sanity in this busy year!
The iphone will help me keep in touch with my bridesmaids in MN, NM and CA . . .plus it will make planning way easier wherever I am since I’m planning a wedding in Mexico!
I need one because my phone right now isn’t internet equipped, and I soooo would love to be able to check my e-mail/check prices online/etc when shopping, etc.
Because we are mac lovers and the iphone is something my fiance has been coveting for some time!
the iphone would really help me jumpstart wedding planning, we’ve been engaged for 8 months and we haven’t planned anything! eeeeep!
I am constantly checking my email, so this would make my life so much easier!
I need an iphone so i don’t have to lug my macbook around everywhere for internet, ical, etc. Also, my phone right now is giving me major troubles by freezing up and dropping my calls!!
I’ve had my current phone for six years and it’s missing buttons and has sand permanently stuck in all the cracks! I need an iphone to replace it and the apps would really help me: help my not get lost while running around buying wedding supplies; help me calculate tips for vendors; help me look cool
I live in a small state - Vermont - and Unicel was JUST bought out by AT&T so we can actually have iPhones in our remote locale (and they just started offering them in stores!). My phone currently has buttons way too small for doing much of anything so it doesn’t get used for anything other than talking. An iPhone would mean that I could get rid of my spiral wedding organizer and have everything programmed neatly into my phone. Not to mention be the envy of all of my friends.
Being the financial director of a non profit and not having a smart phone is hard! But I love my job regardless of my salary, so a free one would be wonderful!
I would love an iPhone because the phone i currently have is old and stinks, but i just haven’t had the money to buy something new yet!
Umm… I live across the street from the Bethesda Marriott–wow. I would use the iPhone to check out vendors while riding the metro around DC!
There are soooo many reasons as to why I could use an iPhone! First, I am technically challenged, and this phone would allow so many things to be done on one device. No more having to have a separate iPod, blackbeery and phone… this would just make life soooo much easier… not to mention help with all the wedding planning!
If I win, it would replace my old scratched up phone that’s been used and abused heavily - for sure though I will take good care of my spiffy brand new iphone xP. Also, I can switch to the same service provider as my future hubby (he has AT&T) and save A LOT on my cell phone bills. I’m currently a grad school student living away from him and my cell phone is my means of getting in touch with him
I desperately need to organize my life.
I don’t have a cellphone at all, and with all the wedding planning and budgeting being what it is, I’m not planning on getting a phone anytime soon. An iPhone would be 3-in-one: phone, camera, iPod, and it would just be awesome!
would love one for day to day activities, and would love to be able to pass on my phone (which is a family plan I share w/ my brothers) to my parents who has never had a cell phone and have worked extremely hard to support my brothers and I…
Wow, this is a great giveaway! I actually want it for my fiance. I love the included GPS and map feature in it. It will help a lot when we drive around to see vendors. Our venue is not that close (4 hrs from me, 2 hrs from him)
I would love an iPhone! I’ve been using the same phone for four years, and that battery life is so short I can only manage one call! Plus, who can resist how cool it looks?
I heart the iPhone but it’s not in the budget.
It would help me stay SO organized in the planning of my big day!
I hate my Treo, it crashes, and I would love to be able to use that sweet calorie counter app to lose weight for the wedding!!
I would love an iphone! There are so many cool apps that could help me stay oragnized!
I need to update the Fiance’s phone since he has a cracked screen for the past 2 years… we’ve been trying to save money and it’s time to give him a nice surprise.
FI would love to have an iPhone– this would be a terrific surprise for him since we’ve been working hard to save money for the wedding.
An iPhone would be perfect!
I moved to live with my fiance in the mountains of Vermont, and a decent iPhone would help me maintain contact with my family in the Philly/DC area. I am using a lot of urban vendors, and I’d love the ease of being able to exchange files while on the go!
Not to mention GPS when I’m driving around the wilds of this state!
I could desperately use an iPHONE because my current cell phone is two years old and has been on an OIF tour and has dealt with the wear and tear of being stuck in a military uniform pocket.
I don’t own an MP3 player (really, I don’t!). So I don’t have a means to show off my songs (wedding songs, couples 1st dance song, daughter/daddy dance, etc). I can’t show off my photos of my fiance and myself, or pictures of wedding themes to my friends.
This phone will allow me to be able to effortlessly be able to communicate with friends and family instead of having to find a new phone once I return back in the states (since I’m still in OIF). It’s make things difficult to plan weddings with an ocean in betwen.
I heard about the great things of this phone. Can’t wait to utilize it to keep me organized with the many details!
I’m email obsessed. I need the iPhone for constant email updates.
if i had an iphone i could have everything i needed to plan my wedding at my finger tips…i live in a really small sleepy fishing town and my wedding is 6 hours away having a iphone would make me feel connected!!
I would love to have an iPhone! It would help so much in planning my wedding, and just in every day life!
My current phone is 6 years+ old so I need an upgrade.
i would love to get the phone and give it to my mom because hers is 100000 years ol
I would use the iphone to make my new business venture more efficient. I’m the new owner and sole “worker” so efficiency is very important.
because I have so much to do and so many to do lists and would love to get them all in one place!
my work blocks gmail and who can plan a wedding without gmail!? the iphone has the best google-friendly applications and would be an immense help!
This is why I need an iPhone: http://ataleoftwobrides.blogspot.com/2009/02/this-is-why-i-need-iphone.html
Cutest. Engagement photos. EVER.
Ooooh, I want! Endless, endless nerdy Mac friendly capabilities!
The iphone would be the most perfect groom’s gift on our wedding day…this way…he’ll never miss our anniversary and stay more organized!
I would love an iPhone because it’s my sister/MOH’s birthday next month and she really wants one! I would give it to her as a brithday present.
i would love to get this phone and give it to my best friend because she is the moh for my other best friend’s wedding and she cant seem to keep up with her emails.
I desperately need an iphone! I am terribly unorganized and don’t want to carry around a huge paper planner all of the time. The iphone is the perfect size.
i need an iphone so that i can stay on top of wedding planning and emails with vendors. i’d also like it so that i can play with all the awesome apps… !!!
I need an iphone to use apps like mint.com to help stay within my budget!
great contest! It would be awesome to use to take pictures and keep my daily blog updated!
this is awesome! i would LOVE an iphone to be able to take pictures of things i’m looking at and thinking about for my wedding, and be able to email them right off to my fiance and mother to get their input! (i am terrible at making decisions solo actually, i would be very tempted to give it to my fiance who is in the navy (which tends to make communication super difficult, but with an iphone he could send me texts/emails/photos whenever he gets a chance!) also he is amazing and deserves something special.
Because if I am too cheap to buy it on my own. It’s hard for me to justify spending that much money on a phone when there are some that are completely free with a 2 year contract. Also I cannot see myself spending that money on a phone when I am still trying to figure out how I’m going to pay for wedding flowers and decorations. Weddings are so damn expensive. Hmmmppppfff.
I’m a back in school studying shoes and spending $ on it right now would be ludicrous, but I love all the useful functions. I’m in desperate need of ipod/mp3 player and it would definitely solve that problem as well!
I need an Iphone so I can keep up with the “cool points” Mr.D and my DAD are rocking. If I had an Iphone I could donate my old block style cell phone to charity and my dad won’t be able to make fun of my technologic loserness.
Oh my gosh. We’re saving up for the wedding so internet at my apartment was the first thing to go, which makes communicating with my fiance (long distance engagements are a big fat booooo) and vendors more difficult than not.
With an iPhone I could get rid of my sub-standard Razr phone that only holds a charge for 7 hours (less if I actually talk on it), use the internet at home, and be so much more organized with all the apps to choose from. My laptop is a dinosaur and missing a couple keys, so typing up lists and budgets is a bit of an exercise in patience and creativity.
Not to mention, an iPhone would help me keep tabs on my mom and future mother-in-law. They…tend to go a bit overboard with wedding planning excitement. ^_^
Oh! Pick me! I’d love an iPhone because it would help me to stop arriving at vendor appointments so late and frazzled after getting lost while driving through the crazy DC area!
My current phone is broken and doesn’t let me know when I have a voicemessage…I will go days without knowing someone called and I am afraid I will miss a call when someone needs me and I won’t know until it is too late.
We don’t have a home phone and I can’t afford a new phone!
Wow that hallway is stunning! I am an all apple girl except for my crappy phone…ahhah I would love to have an iphone but with all the wedding and new house stuff it just hasnt been a priority! thanks for the chance!!!
OMG, an iPhone would be fabulous to keep everything in one place! Not to mention, I’m sure they have a wedding planning ap that would be amazing to have!
My FH and I joke that we have a tele-relationship because between deployments and schools in different cities, we have spent a great deal of our relationship at various stages of “long-distance.” Now, we are only two hours apart by highway, but because we are having a travel wedding, I have to make a lot of the decisions without him nearby. I would love to be able to send him photos of the things I am looking at (my current phone does not have that capability, although he could view them on his phone), so I could get his opinion.
The iPhone would also come in handy when I start work this fall as a new attorney. I’d be able to check my email and do legal research from the halls of the courthouse. My small firm is not going to issue me a phone, and after school and paying for my own wedding, it will be a long time before I can afford this gem.
Well, let me first premise this my saying that I would really like to have an Iphone, but the adult, reasonable side of me has been saying that it isn’t in the budget to buy a 200 dollar phone when I am saving for the biggest day of my life! My fiance (who is Maryland born and bred), and I are both students - him finishing his PhD, and myself, aiming high for medical school entrance in the next two years. I am constantly annoyed that every textbook I purchase has an Iphone app that is half the price. Meanwhile, he is constantly working on developing a non-profit in Latin America, and lives vicariously through his email….which means we could get a lot more wedding planning (and living) done if we weren’t tethered to our laptops at some coffee place with free wi-fi! Our 10-person bridal party is all out of towners, minus one individual, and we are trying to stay sane while we play email-tag with our closest friends over the wedding to-do’s! That being said, we are also training for a triathlon as our first to-do as newlyweds, and would love to use the apps to track our daily runs and bikes, as well as have the handy “dog-deterrent” app in case we encounter a not-so-friendly canine along a running route! In the end, it would definitely make our daily lives streamlined! Plus - who wouldn’t like to Twitter while sitting on the beach during the honeymoon???? : )
I would keep all of my appointments on the calendar, all of my wedding contacts in the phone book. And I’m sure I could find a few wedding applications to download!!!!
I miss being able to keep an electronic calendar! Since I gaduated, I don’t have my laptop with me all the time, so I had to migrate to an old-fashioned paper calendar for my purse. Boo!
And the apps are way cool!
I would be so much more organized with an iPhone…and everything is all in once place so I will only need to remember to grab one thing! Plus the apps are AWESOME!!
Because I dropped my phone in the toilet and it barely works now
my my my - there are soooooo many reasons to need an iphone. I live in LA and the traffic feature on maps is a necessity, ilevel comes in handy, urbanspoon app is good to keep restaurant decisions from ending in argument, etc etc etc - too many reasons to list!!!
i need one so I can give it to my Mr! We’re on different carriers and I go over my minutes evert month talking to him! pretty please
I need an iphone to help me plan at work! I can’t get into my email at work. Also, the Lose It application is a super easy way to track calories and loose weight. I need it!
omg… i neeeeeed a phone. My phone is 4 years old, and dying as we speak… I would love nothing more than having an iPhone as my replacement!
Easier to list the reasons one doesn’t need an iPhone… But I’ll try. It’s everything you need in one convenient gadget — I could listen to music while working on my wedding budget, using an app to navigate the subway to my next wedding vendor appointment…
I need an Iphone so I can procrastinate better! hehee! : ) More seriously, my phone’s battery just doesn’t last enough. I’m hoping a new phone will help me keep one of my new year’s resolutions — to keep in touch with friends better [and not just via facebook!]
My fiance has one and I LOVE the apps you can download to help track calories, weight loss etc….I need my own to keep up with him!
I desperately need a new phone, my current one is really old, beaten, battered and awful looking. I need a new phone that will assist in the planning and executing a wedding from far away. My work causes me to live 1200 miles or so away from where I’ll be getting married. My fiance and I chose the location because it was closer to our relatives and so we can share our special days with all our friends and family. We wanted to make it easier for them to attend.
I need a new phone that will allow me to store photos and easily look at them to show people and match up colors and designs to things I ordering for the wedding. My current phone would never be able to handle all the demands a distant wedding planning requires. The phone will also become a day planner like I really need for a busy working bride-to-be. It can help me organize all the demands of work and wedding planning. It also needs to be able to access the internet and receive my emails, to plan with the organizers better.
That is why I need an iPhone, to handle the demands of my busy work schedule and planning a distant wedding that allows my family and friends to better attend the big event
I need an iPhone to help keep all these wedding details straight! It could replace the coordinator that I just couldn’t fit into my budget.
The newly renovated property looks great! I am a big fan of Bethesda and use to visit quite frequently - when I am back in the DC area I will have to try out your beautiful property.
I am an e-Commerce Manager at a hotel and also just went through a multi million dollar renovation so I know how excited you must be!
My job has a high emphasis on staying on top of all the newest methods of technology. I am constantly communicating via email and staying in tune with RSS feeds and Google Alerts. Being on-the-go most of the time I would totally benefit from the convenience of an iPhone. My little Krazor just isn’t cutting it anymore :/
I need an iphone because I don’t have internet at home and I can’t keep spending all my time at work wedding planning! I would love to have all that information at my fingure tips.
I need an iPhone because my old phone is falling apart!
And, of course, to keep my life straight! My head is full of paper projects right now, which means I’m constantly forgetting everything else I need to do.
Iphone! I’ve been drooling over iPhone since it first came out. I’m a huge Apple fan but honestly, i can’t really afford one right now. I’m a forgetful person and iPhone will be GREAT for me to manage my schedule and to-do-list all the time. Also, I’m very bad with direction and I get lost all the time, so having map all the time on my phone will absolutely help!
My Fiance is being deployed to Iraq and I would LOVE a iphone so I can IM him on the few breaks I get at the hospital. I can tell him how much I love and miss him!!! I can also ask super important questions like flowers and colors for our wedding lol!
I’m a law student, so I’m pretty much attached to my laptop. It would be wonderful to have pocket-size internet access, though, so I don’t need to haul my Mac with me everywhere! My shoulders and back would thank me!
Crossing my fingers - this would be a dream come true!! I can finally be organized on the go!
I would love to win this iPhone so I can give it to my husband - he’s in med school and will be interviewing for residencies around the US at the end of this year. It’d be a great way for us to keep in touch and for him to stay organized!
I need an iPhone becuase I’m in college, but am going to be wedding planner for 2 weddings in 2010. Since planning is starting now, I’m going to need a fast convient way to keep in touch with my 2 brides! One lives in SF, the other in Sacramento, but I can’t be in 2 places at once! =( Please, I’m begging, pick me! =)
I would love to with the Iphone because for one my phone really sucks. It will also help me this year for planning purpoises because I could use it to stay on schedule and really for google maps because seriously i get lost alot!.
I’ve been debating about whether to switch phone services so that I could get an iPhone (because I absolutely love them!) and this would make the decision VERY easy!!
I need an iPhone because I need to able to get organized on one device so that I can finish my PhD. I’ve desperately wanted one for months, but we are too broke.
Well, I need a iphone because I’m constantly getting lost and I always have to stop for directions. I travel a lot for work but rarely get to call home to check on wedding details because my phone doesn’t work abroad and my employer only allows one 15 minute call home per 7 days you’re away. I do all my wedding planning online because my MOH is in Italy (her husband is in the military) and I’m always on the road. My laptop is heavy and it’s hard to lug it out when I get 15 free minutes to check on a wedding details because by the time I get my laptop up and running, I have to shut it down! We just can’t afford to buy an iphone right now.
Right now I’m living on a cell phone that doesn’t help me much. I work full time, and go to school full time. Texting is difficult, and I don’t get emails on my phone. All of my bridesmaids are distant and my fiance and I contact off and on throughout the day over email. It would be great to have this to contact my bridal party, my fiance, my family, and any vendors that I am waiting for responses from without having to make it to a computer! This would be such a help, a “smart phone” definately isn’t on the top of my list while trying to pay for a wedding but I would love this!
I need an iphone because my fiance lives 9 hours away from me. I spend so much time talking to him on the phone EVERYWHERE that my little phone is starting to break down. Not to mention this would help me keep everything much more organized with the “smart phone” concept. Living in the south and trying to find every little wonderful location offered for receptions can be frustrating. The GPS on the iphone is enough to make any bride drool over because I know I have no sense of direction. I would love to get a new phone but every penny now is going to the wedding. sigh. Plus do you need a reason to WANT the iphone? nope.
I need an Iphone because I am trying to start a new business (in the bridal industry) and need to be connected to email as much as possible so that I can provide ultimate customer service to my clients.
Ooh, the iphone would make my life easier….the perfect way to keep in touch and keep everything on track!
My current phone features a voicemail system that curiously gives callers a maximum of 20 seconds to leave a message. Do you have any idea how angry people get when they are cut off mid-message? I’m sure I would win a few friends back with a spiffy phone and the ability to even sync our schedules. Hurrah!
why don’t i need an iphone? geez. my life CRAZY. with work, going to school full-time, two teaching practicums, attempting to get into photography, an attempt at a social life, AND planning a wedding my life NEEDS some organization. not to mention, my current phone just hates me.
I need an iPhone because my phone always freezes. And I think and iPhone is a great gadget to organize my schedules at school and also to keep important appointments and numbers. Or maybe I could give this to my new husband (just got married last Feb 14th!) as a gift. He’s dying to have one too!
Who wouldn’t need one?? I could so use one to help with organize my schedule and to set reminders so I get to places and submit things ontime! I think my fiance would appreciate if I had one too
hah this is so funny because I am desperate for a iphone. I have three jobs to help pay for this wedding and I am CONSTANTLY forgetting appointment, locations, and contact info. also true story- my now fiance swore he was getting me and Iphone for our 4th anniversary - as a ruse o hide the fact that he was going to propose. Of course i was happier to get the ring but about twenty mintues after his proposal i slyly inquired..”does this mean no iphone?”
As a third-year law student preparing to move back to the state where my fiance lives and preparing to move in with him and preparing for the bar and doing the insane course load I foolishly saved for my last semester AND trying to plan a wedding- I could use an iPhone to help me stay in touch while I’m running around like the proverbial chicken sans proverbial head. Plus I could check for new weddingbee posts more frequently!
To help me stay connected to everyone that I love during these busy busy times of working out of time, wedding planning, and other various life events!
To keep in contact with my family - especially since I recently got married (2 wks ago) and it’s been a difficult time transitioning between being “single” to being “married”. an iphone would make that transition so much easier - helping me to stay in contact with those I love (and now don’t get to see as often) most!
I’d love it! I’m so busy, graduating from college in June, moving, and getting married in July! I could use something to get me organized and keep me on track! Plus it’s just awesome with all the apps… possibilities are endless with the iphone!
I am a planner!! I hate poor planning but ever since I started planning “my” wedding, my brain has suddenly shut off. I’ve shown up for appointments two days early and just sat– I need an iPhone to get my behind organized
I need an iPhone for the following reasons:
1) My Palm is dying and rebooting itself on while I’m on the phone!
2) I’m an Apple girl through and through, sans the cellphone.
3) I’m planning a wedding on MV and a wedding overseas! My phone is my lifeline!
FI and I did the whole long distance relationship when I was going to school….4 years later when I graduated we were so happy to be close to each other again.
He just started a new job where he is going to be away M-F and I am in need of a new phone so we can update each other on our lives…actually I was out looking at iPhones tonight!
MY fiance says I love the internet more than him! Not true of course!! But I need to check my mail and search wedding ideas on my looong trips in the car back to my hometown where my wedding is taking place.
I work full-time, go to school part-time and am planning a wedding. I don’t even have a cell phone, so having an iphone would be so helpful to keep myself organized, keep in touch with vendors, and for emergencies (FH is on disability).
Evil ninjas stole my fiancee and won’t give her back unless I get them an iPhone…
:’(
We actually just got married, but work has been keeping my new husband out of town a lot. I miss him terribly and it’s hard to spend so much of the first few married months apart. I think this would definitely help us keep in touch throughout the day!
I would love to have a cell phone that actually has interent access much less the million and one other capabilities that the iphone has. It would make it possible to do so much more! I’m still using a cell phone that has the option to call. Period. There isn’t enough room here to detail how having an iphone would make every area of my life easier….
I am newly married, currently in law school, working part-time, and still attempting to stay in touch with friends and family. I need a way to keep on top of all these things without losing my mind (which is dangerously close to happening).
I need an iPhone so I can check up on weddingbee throughout the day and get great inspiration for my wedding now, but in the future it will help me keep up with everything that is going on around me.
I found out my boyfriend is about to propose! Expecting to gear up my planning skills very soon and those iPhone apps can only help me!
Oh, my goodness. I would love to get an iPhone. It would be a dream come true!!!!
The iPhone is such a brilliant piece of technology and the apps are so useful for planning, not only a wedding, but also honeymooning, other travel arrangements, and your daily tasks!!! Also, the camera on it takes really amazing photos, that would help further daily inspiration!
I would love love love to win this iPhone b/c my fiance loves this phone but we didn’t buy it for him b/c we’re on a tight budget at the moment (saving for the wedding and home down payment).
To talk to my sweetie who lives 2 hours away.
I would love to give the iPhone to my DH! he’s been wanting one for forever…even has started an iPhone fund change jar…with his schedule, he totally needs it.
Mr. meatball’s screen just broke on his Blackberry, and we just can’t spring for a new smartphone this close to the wedding. Getting a new phone, an iPhone nonetheless, would be a huge weight off our shoulders!
So I can stop using my little razor to check my e-mails and read my blogs (like Weddingbee!). That and it would probably make up for the massive fail that my Zune turned out to be when it died suddenly.
I need an iPhone because right now i live on my work provided blackberry - and a very old personal cell phone for my home businesses - an iPhone would allow me to get emails for my home businesses throughout the day and allow me to keep on top of orders and things at work without being on my company computer.
I need an iphone so i can keep in touch w/ my Fiance and my family, so I can stay up to date with news and all that fun stuff, so that i can organize all my wedding planning stuff and just because I think its a super cool phone..It would be nice to have to one.
I work full time and am currently getting my masters. I am never in one spot for too long. The iphone would sure help me get some of my wedding planning done.
I need an iphone because everyone at work has one except me!
I need an iphone because my current cell phone has a huge chunk taken out of the bottom of it. GHETTO! Also because they are too COOL!
Sidenote: I HEART DC! If I lived there I would totally check out Bethesda North Marriott!
I need an iPhone to keep track of my crazy schedule (and play sudoku…)
I could certainly use one so that I quit getting lost and can look up addresses when I forget my list!
If I had an ipod I would read weddingbee while I’m on the bus. I live close the Bethesda!
Oh man, what would i NOT use an iphone for! I’m such a busy girl and not having the internet at my hand to check up on things has taken a toll..
As a nursing student and soon to be nurse I am always on the run! An iPhone would help me organize my to-dos, my planning, and allow me to keep in better contact with my wonderful, supportive fiance!
my bridesmaids are all over the country!! From Texas to California to New York!! An iPhone would help me to keep in touch with them!!
Oh goodness — I’ve been drooling over the iPhone for the longest time. It has the best apps and will help me organize my life so much better.
I need an iPhone because my current phone still has an antenna and does nothing fancy. My fiance just got a touch and I’m super jealous because now he can make to do lists and have a calendar with him at all times!
Because I am always lost! Everytime I go to DC I get lost, no matter how prepared I am with pre-printing directions. With an Iphone I’d never be lost again… at least not for long. =)
to have full access to life at all times, planning, driving, and constant creativity!
Just because it’s so cool, i mean just look at it!
one out of 450 people, these odds are better than lottery!
I NEED an i phone because I am googlie-eyed over the i phone applications- everything from finance applications, organization apps, to medication applications! (I’m in nursing school.. so that would be helpful!). My life was chaotic enough BEFORE getting engaged! Some simplicity wrapped up in an i phone would be just fantastic
Also- my Fiance would just FREAK if I won it! We’ve been drooling ever since they came out!
i currently have a regular cell phone - no blackberry, no iphone! i’ve been DYING to try the iphone…LOVE their apps.
I would love an iphone because I have had my heart set on one since they came out
My current work situation doesn’t allow for me to check email throughout the day-bummer- so if I had and iphone, I could stay connected all day
As a graduate student who works and is now planning a wedding, an iPhone would help me to keep all of the details of my life in line as I juggle multiple things. Today I almost forgot an appointment and an iPhone would have prevented that. Also I love the wedding apps available for the iPhone!
I am a tax accountant working c.r.a.z.y. hours. I’m trying to plan my wedding on my lunch breaks and could really use the cool applications on the iPhone to keep me organized.
I just moved to Dallas so the GPS system would come in handy when navigating to Bridal shops. Plus, I would use the iPhone to take/send pictures to my out-of-town bridesmaids who aren’t able to dress shop with me
An iphone would make keeping in touch with my honey just a little bit easier… and a lot more fun!
I would LOVE an iphone! This would really help me stay connected throughout the day because I am both a student and also work full time. The GPS would be really helpful too because let’s face it…who doesn’t need one? =)
OMG. Between trying to find a job, finishing my graduate thesis, coordinating our wedding, loosing my hard drive last week (which had only been back up two months ago) and the travel I have to do to get to other peoples weddings this year, I could certainly use a gadget that will make my life so much easier!
iphones are great to stay organized! spring cleaning for all aspects of my life!
Well my phone is literally from like 1999 … its always broken. I just want to come back to the 21 century. Plus all my bridesmaids live in another state so its vital for us to have a good line of communication right now.
Because they’re awesome! Plus it would help with my work :).
i dont need one — but my MOM does. she’s desperate for a way to contact her kidlets and friends. her current phone barely makes outbound calls. and it would be AMAZING for her to be able to check the web when she’s bedridden.
I need an iphone because i sometimes don’t have access to the internet to check my email and the iphone would be great will email access. also, it would help me organize and keep track of all my wedding related planning. plus the phone is really nice.!i really love the marriott and i have stayed at their hotels. i enjoyed the residence inns mostly because it’s a home away from home.
If I win, I would love to give this to my fiance, he’s very forgetful and iPhone will keep him organized!
I was in the apple store a couple months ago with my grandmother, and she tried out the iphone (since she’d seen the commercials) and loved it. she’s old and not very mobile, so she relies a lot on phones to keep her connected to friends and family. it’s so cute! i would love to be able to give her an iphone so i could send her pictures and talk to her throughout the process.
I need the iPhone because, me and my Fiance are in a long distance relationship, I’ve had my currant phone for almost 2 years, and since we talk so much, I’ve worn the battery down, so now it will only stay charged for about 2 hours of talk time…
I need an Iphone so I can keep up to date with my planning while I’m out and about!! Looking things up, checking out vendors, etc
I need an iphone to stay organized with my wedding planning and business meetings. It is also convenient to have when you want to listen to music in the office.
Nobody *needs* an iPhone. Humans have been going strong for a long time without them!
But it sure would be convenient for finding places to eat when I’m already on the road!
I hone is dented and old. Its time for a new one.
The IPHONE craze!! Everyone has one! I have my old cell phone from 3 yrs ago haha. I am planning on updating to the IPHONE and with all of our wedding planning and constantly being on the go, it would be perfecto! <3
to be honest. i’d love it for our wedding pictures. you know, the shot were you take a pic of the two of you kissing and then hold it in front of your faces while the photographer takes another shot. just too cute. oh yeah and there other uses for it.
I need an iphone.
Not just want, need.
Why?
Oh,
because they’re shiny.
the connectivity! i’d love to get a ‘modern’ phone (i still have a nokia… yes not even a flip phone!) so that i could k.i.t. with vendors, bmaids, my soon to be MIL (God bless her :P), and of course the fiancee. but the best reason for an iphone? to read weddingbee updates INSTANTLY!!!
It’s the perfect birthday present for my mom!
Top three reasons why I want an iPhone:
1.) My current blackberry has been dropped so many times it’s covered in cracks! The trackball is so dirty that it won’t move in any direction but right!
2.) My girlfriends and I spend about 20 minutes trying to figure out the bill when we go to dinner. Every time I see the commercial for the Tip Calculator, I think about how it would save our lives.
3.) My fiance has one; we could start sending pictures back and forth! (helpful with wedding decisions!)
-useful for keeping in touch for wedding planning!
-useful for work
-useful for checking weddingbee every 15 minutes! (we should get RSS feeds like other websites!)
-useful for being cool with the saber sword feature:)
-wish work would consider it useful and pay for one!! i still have my free phone from my wireless provider
An iPhone would be a huge upgrade for me. The phone I have now is so ancient, it has no camera, no internet- nothing. It’s time for me to go high-tech!
I need an iPhone to keep my life in tact. Right now I am juggling being engaged, going to grad school, teaching junior high students full time, and tutoring part time. I lug a planner, a camera, an address book, an mp3 player, a laptop, and my phone around, and there is not a bag in existance that can hold all of my stuff.
Could I pretty please have the iPhone? I could downgrade to a clutch.
I would love an iphone to replace 4 year old flip phone!
I need an iphone to keep my work together organize with appointments and other stuff.
What a fantastic opportunity! And iPhone would be perfect for helping kick of married life - FH and I are huge roadtrippers, and from what I’ve heard about things like Urbanspoon and the GPS capabilities, as well as online lodging searches and general calling friends and family back home, it would be the perfect accessory to lots of fun adventures. Not to mention that it would make everyday life - busy NYC professional here - more easy with organization and easy access to everything in one place. Thanks for the consideration - I have my fingers crossed!
iPhones are awesome! Do you really need a better reason than that for why you need one?
When we get married, I am switching to his service provider. Which means that my phone now will be worthless. I would LOVE an iphone, but know that we couldn’t afford one, with a wedding, buying a house, and starting our lives together.
IPHONE! Oh my gosh! This is so exciting…I’ve wanted one since they came out! Apple is a BRILLIANT company - marketing, innovation, everything…genius! 15,000 aps and counting…amazing! I would love to build some unique “Wedding Ap”!!!
My phone is so old it only holds a charge for 10 minutes of talk time! I really need a new phone but have been putting all my money into the wedding! I live in NY and my family is in the DC area, I would love the iphone applications so I could show my mom and sisters some pictures of things I am looking at for our wedding! It would be like brining them closer to my wedding planning with out making the weekend trips!
I would looooove to have an iphone! My phone is super ghetto because I promised myself the next phone I would get would be an iphone and I haven’t exactly had the funds to get one yet!
Who wouldn’t want/need an iPhone? It would keep me from getting lost all the time…haha.
I’ve been meaning to switch phones for a while now and an iphone would be so convenient and useful!
Because I’m in med school and can’t afford one of my own, but basically am required to have one to be on top of my game in the hospital. Help me be the best doctor I can be!!!
I would love the iPhone for my husband. He never buys anything for himself. He’s the most generous person I have ever met. He takes care of everyone else around him. I would love to surprise him with a new phone. AND his birthday is next Sunday!! I can’t afford to get him one since we’re still paying off our wedding…no complaints though since it was the best day EVER!!
I need to keep in touch with our friends & family while we’re honeymooning far away!
I need an iPhone so that I can have my day planner/calendar on hand all the time! My current phone doesn’t have that feature and I am always losing track of wedding planning appointments and dates!
To stay organized and connected.
I would give it to my brother as a cheer-up — he just got laid off work, their apartment lease expires at the end of March, and one of his one-month-old twins might have a brain damage.
Not only am I getting married in May, but I’m graduating med school and starting residency, so money is TIGHT! Unfortunately, my pda (which is invaluable in the hospital) has decided to kick the bucket, and my phone is showing signs of going soon, too. If I could combine them, now would be a great time to do so, and I could keep my wedding appointments and task list organized, as well as stay on top of things in the hospital!
my life is all over the country (seriously!) and i can’t tell you enough how much easier things would be for me if i had an iphone to organize and keep in touch!
I want an iphone b/c it has so many amazing apps that would help to simplify my life.
