Mrs. Parasol's Picture
Mrs. Parasol, San Ramon, California Age and Occupation: 25, Non-profit writer, editor, and blogger Fiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Law school student Engagement Date: December 19th, 2010 Wedding Date: September 2011 Venue: Bent Creek Winery (Livermore, California); Reception: Family Residence (San Ramon, California) About Me: I am a California girl at heart. I love the outdoors, sunny days at the beach, and hiking in the woods and mountains. I also love good books and am fresh from completing my Master's degree in English and Comparative Literature in New York City. Living in NYC was an amazing experience, and while I'm glad to be back on the West Coast, I'm also thankful that my two years back East gave me an opportunity to explore new places, make new friends, and indulge my passion for Broadway shows. Oh, and I received a pretty awesome proposal from Mr. Parasol in Central Park. Above all else, Mr. Parasol is my biggest cheerleader and my best friend. But even though I'm thrilled to be marrying him, I wasn't always totally on board with this whole wedding thing and at first, I wanted to run off and elope. I've finally been convinced to throw the wedding I never thought I wanted, and so now I'm busy planning an intimate September wedding filled with DIY details. Along the way, I'm slowly learning to appreciate, perhaps even love the wedding planning process.

Here We Go

September 16th, 2011 @ 1:00 pm by Mrs. Parasol

Well, hive, this is it. Today’s the day. The day I become Mrs. Parasol.

Here We Go :  wedding relationships san ramon Parasol06 Parasol06

Personal Photo

It’s been nine months since Mr. Parasol got down on one knee and asked me to spend the rest of my life with him, six months since I bought a dress and we set a date, three and a half months since we started seriously wedding planning, and two months since I joined the hive.

This day has been almost four years in the making, and I am ready.

Family and friends have come into town from afar, my parents’ house is beautifully decorated, and my DIY flowers have finally been assembled. I am so ready for this wedding.

But most of all, I’m ready to marry Mr. Parasol. I’m ready to be his wife and for him to be my husband. I’m ready to finally move into our apartment and to really start our life together. I’m ready for forever with my forever kind of man.

To the hive: thank you so much for allowing me to share my journey with you. These past two months with the hive have been absolutely amazing, and I consider it a tremendous honor to share my experiences with you. Thank you for celebrating with me, challenging me, and helping and supporting me when I needed it most. Above all else, thank you for sharing your hearts and stories with me. You all are awesome.

To Mr. Parasol: I love you, and I’m ready to start this great adventure with you. Now let’s go get married already!
