Miss Turkey's Picture
Miss Turkey, Philadelphia Age and Occupation: 29, Brand Management Fiance's Age and Occupation: 28, Consultant Engagement Date: February 2011 Wedding Date: May 2012 Venue: The Rittenhouse Hotel About Me: I'm a marketer who loves a good glass of wine, anything pumpkin-flavored, every crime drama on TV and, of course, Mr. Turkey. It's funny to say out loud, but we're former coworkers turned betrothed---now planning a wedding in the city of Brotherly Love. For three years, we've been eating our way through Philadelphia, playing tourist at home, and cheering for every sports team in the 215. Although we've hit some unplanned snags along the way, we're determined to have a rocking party this spring with our loud, fun families and friends.
About Miss Turkey

Who Are You? (Who Who Who Who)

December 1st, 2011 @ 5:39 am by Miss Turkey

“Tell me about yourself.” “Share one fun fact.” “What makes you YOU?”

For some reason, these sorts of inquiries make me nervous. But I figure you all might want a little bit more info about the Turkeys than what you have now…so, to save myself the sweaty palms, I’m going to keep it simple.

Well, a picture’s worth a thousand words*, so here are some photos to tell you our story.

This is one of my all-time favorite photos—believe it or not, it was not at all posed.

A (formerly) nerdy runner…

He had to gain a few lbs for this position.

…at work.

Later, we would spend months sitting five feet from each other…thankfully that eventually ended.

And then I left the company. And then he did.

They share a love of Philly sports…

Since Villanova has a winning record with his attendance, I let him keep coming.

How would you tell your story in photos?

*I like cliches (and idioms)…sorry, but you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Hence using the theme song from CSI as my title. (I do love me some TV crime dramas.)

Welcome! I met my fiance at work as well and we also spent months sitting 5 feet away from each other (and going on business trips together). Like you guys, we’d stopped working together before we started dating, but it’s still a little awkward telling people that’s how we met!
Looking forward to hearing more about your relationship and wedding!

Love the picture story timeline. You guys are too cute. Love that you worked together. Too bad you don’t anymore- you could be the wedding bee version of Pam & Jim. ;)

Yay!! You guys are the Jim and Pam of weddingbee =) Also, go Phillies and Eagles (even though they both have a tendency to break my heart.) I’m currently living in RI and your posts make me miss home SOOO much. Gotta love Philly! And I like your picture story!!

Glad you all liked the photo stories - hopefully you don’t get too sick of our “mugs” as we go along.

@toshella: We actually ended up working together for a while after we starting dating - on the same team! Our immediate team knew, but we did a good job of separating our personal and professional lives, as some people had no idea until they heard we were engaged!

@Miss Porcupine: @kmnowlan: That’s what they used to call us…and they thought Mr. Turkey looked like Jim, which made it all the more entertaining.

@Future Mrs. Huban: Hi location / month twin :)
