Mrs. Hippo's Picture
Mrs. Hippo, New York City/Dallas, TX Age and Occupation: 34, Event Planner for a Non-Profit Fiance's Age and Occupation: 35, Finance IT Engagement Date: August 8, 2009 Wedding Date: March 2011 Venue: Samuel Lynne Galleries and Marc Events About Me: I’m a thirty-something bride living in New York City and planning a modern-ish wedding in Dallas, Texas. I love trashy reality television (Jersey Shore, anyone?), online shopping, Sunday brunch, Central Park, and random celebrity spottings on the streets of Manhattan. While I love NYC, I miss good Tex-Mex, my college friends, central A/C, and being in close proximity to a Target. I’m thrilled to finally be planning an event that’s not work-related and to be marrying my best friend in what I hope will be a unique and personal ceremony followed by a reception with plenty of good food, good drinks, and dancing (regardless if it’s good or not).
About Mrs. Hippo

Bees By the Bay

January 10th, 2011 @ 6:10 pm by Mrs. Hippo

My last business trip before the wedding was last week (hooray!), and I was psyched to escape the New York snow and head to sunny California. Well…it actually wasn’t that sunny. In fact, it was pretty damn cold, but it was still nice to get out of town and even better to cross this big work event off my list. It wasn’t all work and no play, though. When I got to San Francisco, I knew I had to hook up with the SF blogger bees, especially since there are so many of them! Do these lovely ladies look familiar?

(Left to Right) Eggplant, Ostrich, Cola, Penguin, Pin Cushion, Jellyfish, Glasses, French Toast and me!


It was so great to hang out with these ladies from the West Coast and talk weddings (among other things). Come to find out, French Toast and I are getting married the same weekend, so I’m super excited to have someone in the same place in their planning to dish with.

Have you found a wedding date (or weekend) twin to compare notes with? Has it helped you feel better about your wedding plans?

It was so fun to meet you all! But I will be honest when I say, Penguin, Jellyfish, basically anyone at the table except Cola and Hungry - I could not hear a word y’all were saying! Let’s go somewhere quieter next time :)

Yay for my wedding weekend twin! :)
Couldn’t agree more w/ Glasses on the noise level… I could count the # of times I had to ask, “Sorry could you repeat that?”

I too am here to comment on the Glasses PWC. I envy your hair in a mad mad way. It looks fabulous both long *and* short!

In fact, everyone looks fantastic!

@Miss Zebra: Not soon, unfortunately! I had an event there in September, but it was a really quick trip so I didn’t have time to hang out. Next time, though!
