Edit: Wow - I’m so glad that so many of you find that this would be a helpful tool! It’s very encouraging to me, not to mention that it reassures me that I am not completely crazy . Due to the level of responses, Mrs. Bee informed me that she could actually upload this so that you all could download it directly. So w/o further ado, here it is. Happy planning!

Hello From Miss Daffodil!

First off, I am so incredibly thrilled to be a bee! When Mrs. Bee informed me of the great news, I was practically bouncing off the walls at work! I was first introduced to Weddingbee by one of my bridesmaids, Fran, who was going through the wedding planning process herself at the time. After I got engaged, I became an avid reader and discovered what an inspiring, creative and supportive community it is!

For my introductory post, I thought I would share a little bit about Mr. Daffodil and myself and why I chose “Miss Daffodil.”

It was a shock to everyone when Mr. Daffodil and I first started dating. As mentioned in my intro, we are living proof that “just friends” can turn into much more! We met in college in the South and were part of the same tight-knit group of friends for ~3 years. It wasn’t until shortly after Mr. Daffodil had graduated and already moved back to the West Coast that our relationship even began! Call him sweet or call him crazy, he decided to move back to our university to pursue a year of research (but really so that we could be together for my senior year ).
