Wedding Blog
I. Am. A. Beeeeee!!! Squeeeeeeeal! WOW! Is this really happening?! Why yes, I think it is! I cannot tell you how absolutely excited and honored I am to be able to share my wedding planning trials and tribulations with the hive! I must admit, along with that excitement comes absolute terror, but it’s a good fear! I started my blog a little over two weeks ago with the (sole, tee hee) intention of applying for the ’bee. I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would be accepted, much less find out a long and grueling two whole days later! 
Needless to say, when I got the email from Pengy, I squealed, jumped, flailed my arms, danced, rinsed, and repeated.
So, why Miss Rainbow? Firstly, I have a penchant for deeming everything—the good, bad, and ugly— “sunshine and rainbows”. As in: “Honey, you might wanna give it a few minutes before you go into the bathroom, it smells like sunshine and rainbows in there…”
Okay, too much sharing for day one? *blush* Second, I am a big advocate of gay rights, especially when it comes to marriage. I can’t wait until the day when all of us, every single one, can live in a just and unprejudiced nation and truly share equal rights as human beings. And lastly, well, have you seen those puffy little clouds?! Too cute!
Thank you so much for accepting me into such an amazing, inspirational, and talented group of ladies (and gents). I can’t wait to catch you all up on the plan-so-far! Stick around, the weather’s nice!
<3 Miss Rainbow
Me & the Mister. Isn’t he lovely? *swoon*

You too look cute together! I’m looking forward to hearing more about your plans.
Welcome!!! I also did the squealing, jumping, rinsing and repeating. I hope that you can help some of us makeup-challenged bees, too!
Bienvenida Miss Rainbow!!! as a secret: your icon was my second choice, it’s TOO cute - I was so anxious to met the BEE that will take it!!
You are so freaking CUTE! I was wondering if gay rights had anything to do with your icon. Very exciting Can’t wait to see more from you!!

Congratulations! I am so excited to see another Tampa Bee!!!
So excited to have a Tampa bride-to-be! I’m a St. Pete girl
YAY!! i love you already!! Rainbow was going to be my pic if it was still around when i apply and maybe just maybe get accepted. lol .here’s for hoping. it’s good to see someone else who’s passionate about gay rights and I’m glad you are so open about it. I’m looking forward to the make up tips as well!!
@jmc: Hahaha, I was worried that was a little too far, glad it was well received! What can I say? I have “man humor”, i chalk it up to being raised by my dad & 2 older brothers
Thank you all SO much for the warm welcome! It means the world to me!
Welcome….and for some reason your icon has the theme song from the old tv show “reading rainbow” running though my head!
Welcome!! I looove makeup so I hope you’ll share some of your expertise!
Welcome! I was hoping that whatever bee-to-be adopted the rainbow moniker would do so with equality in mind- you passed with flying colors (tee hee- excuse the horrible colorful pun).
Can’t wait to hear more! Muchos besos!
Welcome! Can’t wait to get to know you, your mister and your wedding much better
Welcome!! You sound like a fun bride-to-be and I cant wait to see your DIY posts and all your ideas. Beautiful engagement photo btw! Speaking of Florida…we’ll be honeymooning in Naples, FL!!
Welcome, and your picture is so cute! Sunshine and rainbows (in a good way!) indeed!
Welcome, Miss Rainbow! Yay for gay rights and yay for your cute little icon!!
OMG! Not only did you pick the same icon I would have (although not for the same reasons) but you’re from right across the bridge!!! Welcome!! Can’t wait to see and here more from you!

Miss Rainbow, Tampa
Age and Occupation: 22, Makeup Artist
Fiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Electrical Engineer/Programmer
Engagement Date: November 27, 2008
Wedding Date: May 2010
Venue: The Gamble Plantation
About Me: I'm a quirky (and slightly Type-A) freelance makeup artist who was born in Washington State, raised in Alabama, and now living with my one and only in sunny Florida. I'm fashion and beauty obsessed, and have recently discovered my inner domestic diva extraordinaire. I'm a wannabe chef, decorating addict, and trying desperately to be as crafty as possible---albeit only with a glue gun. I'm hopelessly in love with my fiance, and all things sparkly and feathery. Despite the glittery exterior, I'm a total hippie on the inside. When I'm not making up pretty faces, I love doing what I can to help people, animals, and the environment. Someday the FI and I will change the world, but first we're tackling our modern-vintage-Marie-Antoinette-meets-Alice-in-Wonderland inspired wedding. I just can't wait to be Mrs. Rainbow!
