Mrs. Joey's Picture
Mrs. Joey, Seattle Age and Occupation: 28, Project Administrator for Public Health NGO Fiance's Age and Occupation: 30, High School History Teacher Engagement Date: June 24, 2008 Wedding Date: August 2009 Venue: Eastside Catholic Chapel and Lake Union Cafe About Me: I'm a Seattle girl through and through except for the fact that I don't drink coffee. I love my job most of the time because I get to travel and work with brilliant people who are trying to prevent Malaria. I love DIY projects of all sorts, cooking, and watching sports. I'd wear anything at Anthropologie and could spend all day on Etsy. I love to travel but shouldn't because I always get myself into unbelievable situations!
About Mrs. Joey

Or married.

DPP_0133

Well that’s it—the whole shebang. We planned, we wed, we partied and we survived. The whole thing was very surreal. Some days it was too real and other days I felt like I was living in a dream (and sometimes a nightmare).

I really enjoyed sharing our wedding with everyone and I hope the hive found my posts interesting but helpful. I seriously get really excited when I see people mention on the boards that they are trying Craigslist out for wedding related needs or are thinking about poster invites or Goodwill makeovers. I hope flower girl poms, short dresses with bright shoes and funny t-shirts as bridal party gifts get more popular, too.

I’m really sad to be “out” of Weddingbee for good, so I won’t be. We’ll just say I’ll bee on a very extended leave of absence from the wedding planning scene. I’m sure I’ll have projects to share that can be wedding related.

While I won’t be blogging here, I will still be blogging. You can find Mr. Joey and me documenting our house building and decorating journey at Forty Twenty Four. I hope some of you will “hop” over and say hi.

I love this place; it really helped make my wedding experience. I hope it won’t be too long until I hop in for a hello!

Love,

Mrs. Joey

Just wanted to say that I’ve loved your posts and have followed along right from the (almost) beginning. You got married a week before me, so I always felt like we were in the same boat. Good luck with everything you do in the future!

Awww, it was fun following you and your planning. I remember when you first became a Bee. I was so excited for your grey and yellow theme, and it turned out so beautifully! Glad this won’t be goodbye, just see you later.

I hate this part :( I just told my FI that I get so sad when Bees leave the Hive (so to speak) and he looked at me like I was crazy. But it’s true, we get to know you so well, especially if we’ve followed you since the beginning. Then it’s over. All sappiness aside (if that’s even a word), I wish you and Mr. Joey the very very best. Good luck turning your house into a home. Hope to see you around here soon!

@naangel55: I’m SO excited about how the floorplan came out.

@Mrs. Peep Toe: Thanks! I loive your style too and can’t wait to “borrow” from you. :)

I’m always so sorry to see the recaps end. I was so sad to see my own wedding day end, it’s hard knowing that we won’t see more photos and smiles from your special day. Can’t wait to check out the house!

These posts are always to hard to read! I never want the Bees to go away. It’s heartbreaking! Glad to hear you won’t be gone for good, though. I’ve loved how down to earth you are, you seem like someone that would be a GREAT friend! Congrats on your wedding and cheers to a happy marriage!
