Mrs. Octopus's Picture
Mrs. Octopus, Boston, MA/Pittsburgh, PA Age and Occupation: 25, Grad Student Fiance's Age and Occupation: 26, Graphics Operator for TV News Engagement Date: May 6th, 2009 Wedding Date: September 2010 Venue: Heinz Chapel Ceremony, Museum Reception About Me: When my best friend dragged me to a toga party in our freshmen year of college, I was not expecting to meet my future husband; but seven years later, here we are. I'm a crazy-organized planner at heart, and I am a great lover of random trivia, books, chocolate, blogs, new and exciting adventures, mockumentary-style television, and anything heavily flavored with bright orange fake cheese powder. We're planning a festive and fun mini-destination wedding in the place where we met: fabulous Pittsburgh, PA! I can't wait to marry the man I love!
About Mrs. Octopus

Oh, hive. For the first time since the day I was introduced as a new bee, I feel like I really don’t quite know what to say.

Being a contributor to this site has been such a joy. 2010 was a very hard year for Mr. Octo and me, in some ways that made it onto this blog and in many that did not. Writing for Weddingbee, though, has never been anything but fun and happy moments and bright spots in my days. Thank you so much for that, and for everything.

Thank you for all the support, the encouragement, the suggestions, and the help. Thank you for the comments that made me laugh out loud; those are some of my favorites. Thank you for being so incredibly, overwhelmingly kind to me over and over and over. I truly love this community, and the friends I’ve made here. I can’t imagine what planning my wedding would have been like without all of you.

Our wedding is well behind us now, though, and it’s time to get down to the business of spending the rest of my life with my delightful husband.

I didn’t originally plan to keep writing after I wrapped up my time as Mrs. Octopus, but I have found that I just cannot stop blabbing about myself on the Internet. So, if you’re interested in reading stories about my dog, deep reflections on television shows I watch, tales of times I have been tragic and/or awkward, or descriptions of things Mr. Octo cooked for me while I sat on the couch (ha! seriously though), please feel free to stop by my new blog, The Silver Lining.

I hope you all have fabulous weddings and beautiful, fun-filled marriages.

I’m really going to miss you.

xoxoxo,

OCTO!!!!!

I’m so sad! You were by far my favorite bee to follow along with (shhh don’t tell the others) and not just because you got married in the greatest place ever. You have a talent for writing so I’m glad to see you are continuing on your own blog and I’ll definitely be following. Thanks for sharing your journey with us!

You look gorgeous in the pic! I’m sorry that I’m a new bee and didn’t “Know” you better, but I’m quickly discovering that this website is more helpful than any bridesmaid ever could be! I’ve already had so much help and advice, and also tried my best to help and give advice to other bees, as if I knew them:) Everyone on here is just fantabulous, and I know I’ll have the same woes when I have to depart from BeeLand. Congratulations!
