Mrs. French Bulldog's Picture
Mrs. French Bulldog, Orange County Age and Occupation: 28, Administrative Assistant & Interior Design Student Fiance's Age and Occupation: 28, Purchasing Analyst Engagement Date: November 8, 2008 Wedding Date: August 2009 Venue: Bernardo Winery About Me: I've lived in Atlanta, Dallas and Laguna Niguel; although I've lived in Orange County, CA most my life, I'm a Southerner at heart. I work full time for a Commercial General Contractor (aka my father) and I go to school for Interior Design at night. I love modern design, music, wine, crafting, DMailing, my family, my Westies, and of course, Mr Frenchie! Mr Frenchie and I met 3 years ago on Match.com and have been best friends ever since. I love his "old soul" and how he laughs with his whole body, among many other things. We are planning our summer wedding at the winery near his hometown, just 45 minutes south of Orange County.
About Mrs. French Bulldog

If you guessed our cake topper by Etsy seller SueBeeHB, you’re right! I received an email from Sue on Tuesday letting me know she had mailed the birds, and THE NEXT DAY, they arrived at my home! Granted, I only live about 25 miles from Sue, but I was still excited. They came in a cute box that reminded me of a Twitter question Sara with Stinkerpants Designs asked a few weeks ago regarding the packing she mailed her cards with, and I stand corrected. It is more exciting when something comes in a fun package.

I would still have been really excited to receive them in just the Priority Mail box, but the special packaging made them seem more homemade and from the heart.

Inside, the birds were nestled safely…

You can see FH’s birdie there on top.

And here we they are…

See FH’s yellow bout? I can’t get over how cute they are!

Okay, last one. Here they are on their base…

My favorite purchase was my cake topper, too! I had a polymer clay artist (also found on Etsy!) make replicas of us! It is by far my favorite!!

Oh, how sweet are these!!

I desperately wanted lil birdies but I had many people tell me they “didn’t get it.” What’s to get?!?! They’re precious :)

Awe, they’re adorable! I want to find something that fits with our cycling obsession, but isn’t too cheesy. I know I know, I’m probably on a wild goose chase here, but I thought it was worth putting some feelers out there?

So cute, congrats Frenchi!

@pvaulter718: What about a couple on a tandem bike? or little figures of each of you on your own bikes :) I think it’d be cute, but then again, I built my own bike and am in to that sort of thing….

@Miss Stiletto: I had to talk Mr Frenchie and my mom into the idea, they both thought it was a little odd until the birds came in… then they were all OMG they are so cute! I’m so glad you talked into this blah blah blah ;-)
@pvaulter718: I was thinking the same thing as D’orsay w/ the tandem bike. Look around Etsy or use Alchemy I’m sure you could find one of the many VERY talented artists to custom something for you :)

@pvaulter718: yeah, check out etsy and search bicycle or even on ebay. Alchemy on etsy would probably yield someone who can make something amazing!
