Weddingbee Blog

Hello all! Here I am! Ta-da!

(crickets chirping)

What, you’re like, who? It’s me, the Weddingbee reader who’s been avidly following this site for over a year, voraciously reading the daily posts, meticulously combing the archives of all my favorite bees (I know I’m not the only one who has spent a late night or a “work break” clicking “more by Miss/Mrs. ____”!), applied once to be a bee and was REJECTED, tried again, and now I’m here!

Still not helpful? Well let me give some specifics and me and Mr. Pug (the husband to be).

Mr. Pug and I live in a small apartment, with our pug, in NYC. Within a few blocks of our apartment are several delectable bakeries, which is important because I don’t think we can function without constant supplies of sugar. It also doesn’t hurt that there is a cozy neighborhood wine shop nearby—nothing like a bottle of bubbly stashed in the fridge 24/7. Who’s with me on that one?

I like to cook and bake, and we love to have people over for dinner and serve them food on funny paper plates (shaped like skulls or candy corn in October; Barbie princess plates for birthdays) because our “dishwasher” putters out (i.e. Mr. Pug doesn’t want to do the dishes). We enjoy horrible TV shows (him: Korean drama series and me: Girls Next Door), and bestow unreasonable amounts of attention on our pug. In short, we are big dorks.

We met over three years ago when a friend set us up on a date, and we got engaged two years later while on vacation. Here’s the fam:

Now we’re planning a wedding—actually I’m planning it and then running things by him, which works for us—for about 50-60 guests out in Half Moon Bay, California.

Us in a nutshell. I think it’ll be great to host this awesome party for our friends and family, and I totally look forward to sharing my experiences with all of you along the way!
