Mrs. Sea Breeze's Picture
Mrs. Sea Breeze, Vancouver/Dominican Republic Age in 2008 and Occupation: 30, Communications Manager Fiance's Age in 2008 and Occupation: 29, Experiential Marketing Director Engagement Date: October 6, 2007 Wedding Date: November, 2008 Blogging Since: July 17, 2008 Venue: Majestic Colonial Resort, Punta Cana About Me: Planning a destination wedding by the sea should be (oh no she di-in't…) a breeze (…*sigh* yep, she did) but when you've never been to the Caribbean, your powers of imagination are really put to the test. Luckily, I'm 90% resourceful, creative optimist (and kooky, neurotic practicalist-if-that's-a-word for the other ten). Other than writing about our week-long celebration of family, friends, laughter and love, I adore books, shoes and… you guessed it… long walks on the beach.

365 Days of Breezy Bliss

November 17th, 2009 @ 6:20 pm by Mrs. Sea Breeze

Well I almost did it – finished my recaps before our one year anniversary, that is. Turns out I’m only a couple posts shy but the day is here and I can’t help but stop everything and revel in the joy of it.

Has it really been a whole year since this?

I can hardly believe it.

Miss Chick, Houston Age and Occupation: 28, Rights and Reproduction Manager Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Computer Programmer Engagement Date: November 15, 2008 Wedding Date: April 2010 Venue: A farm outside of Houston About Me: Mr. Chick and I met almost ten years ago at Baker Blues, a college jazz party. He was attracted to my intensity, and I was mesmerized by his trivia pursuit skills and his dorm furniture adorned with his initials. We've grown more sophisticated through the years, with our love of wine, owning a house together, and parenthood (of a cat), but we have not lost our silliness or childish sense of humor!

Chicks’ Story: Tenth Anniversary Edition

November 17th, 2009 @ 3:14 pm by Miss Chick

As Mr. Chick and I celebrated our tenth anniversary last week, I find myself reminiscing on how we met, and the ways we’ve grown together. I thought I would dedicate a post to our story and Mr. Chick’s proposal. What do you say?

Mr. Chick and I met one magical night in 1999. It was muggy and humid down in the courtyard where people were dancing…

One Year and… Five Months Later?

Why, hello hive! Yes, it’s really me - I know, long time no blog! I guess I sort of missed doing a “one-year” post, but better late than never, right? Much has happened since I last posted, including many wedding/marriage-related things that I plan to write about… so I thought I’d give a preview of what’s to come in the form of a Daffodil update…

… Minutes, that is, since we’ve been married. What’s changed in the last two years?

1. We bought our first home! Thanks to Obama and Schwarzenegger, we were able to take advantage of some first time home buyer tax credits to purchase a 2BR/2BA condo in downtown SF. Nevermind that we are too broke to furnish it. Ignore our ghetto “drapes”, i.e. the faded bed sheet we…

We just bought our first home together and live with our two puppies and cat - it's a strange mixture of vintage, high-tech (we have 7 computers and 21 video game systems in all), and a whole lot of fur. Our wedding tries to embody the Japanese idea of "slow life", which is truly taking the time to enjoy food, company, and your environment!

This is How We Do It.

So, it has been two years since Mr. GB and I said our ridiculous vows and got married. So how have things changed?

We look so sweet!

Well, Mr. GB still lives in constant fear of being kanchoed when going up stairs, so I can safely say our relationship is pretty much the same. We did move from our cute place in Lake Merritt to a larger,…

The Avocados’ First Anniversary

October 11th, 2009 @ 7:27 pm by Mrs. Avocado

Today marks the first of what I know will be many wedding anniversaries for us. How do I know? Because we aren’t going to make it happen. We aren’t soul mates. We were never “meant to be”. We chose this, and we are going to continue to choose to make it work for the rest of our lives and beyond.

I’ve written a lot about our…

I'm from Chicago, he's from NYC, and we both miss public transit and great pizza. We have an adorable muppet dog called Paco. I'm part hippie with a healthy dash of hip hop superstar, have excessive empathy for animals, and have not one, but two bionic eyes (long story). We're broke and it ain't no joke. It can't stop us from planning the bold and whimsical wedding of our dreams, but we've had to get pretty creative to make it work, yo!

7 Years Ago Today…

October 8th, 2009 @ 2:16 pm by Mrs. Meatball

... It was a cold and drizzly autumn day in Milwaukee, WI. I got all gussied up for a very special night, butterflies flipping around in my belly like so many Mexican jumping beans. I waited, anxious, excited and nervous; sitting, standing, fidgeting, checking and rechecking my hair and makeup. A knock at the door sent thrills through my body. It was the man who would become my future husband, come to pick me up for our very first official date.

The Caramels’ 2nd year

Today is our 2 year wedding anniversary. I can’t believe it’s been 2 years already!

Marriage used to scare me… and it STILL scares me! In my fickle, free-spirited lifestyle, marriage is the most serious thing I’ve ever committed to. Of course, some things about our marriage aren’t what I had pictured —I don’t cook every night (or cook EVER), our place is a mess most…

I am a coffee addict, especially Starbucks' Grande Mochas, yummy! I love to cook (especially chocolate chip cookies for my honey), travel to exotic places, and be creative.

After two years, he moved to my neck of the woods, and a year and a half after that, he proposed at the “place we fell in love.” I am a true perfectionist who enjoys designing and creating more work for myself, so wedding planning is my perfect outlet. Mr. Cupcake and I are both old souls, and we hope to weave that aspect of our personalities into our wedding day.

I devote almost as much time researching my for fantasy football team as researching for our wedding!

I Can’t Keep Secrets

Sometimes I get so excited about a gift to hubby that I give it to him early.

Time Flies When You’re in Love…

When you’re planning your wedding, the anticipation is hard to imagine. Some days the wedding can’t come soon enough, and some days you think, ‘wait, I have one more project!’ When the sun sets and the party comes to a close, you find yourself happily married. You giggle when you say “my husband” or he introduces you as “his wife” (that still hasn’t gotten old).…

I can make that!' Nerdy professional by day, goofy won-ton by night. The won-ton sometimes comes out during the day when I'm fed the dollar breakfast at Ikea. Since our engagement, wedding planning has put me on high alert for bargains and I've been pushing my nimble fingers through callous building experiments!

360 ‘Round the Sun

A year ago today I put on a silly poofy dress, high fived a stud, did my own stunt, lip synced to Neil, got smashed with cake, and danced like no one was watching.

It was off the hook! But contrary to what people tell me, it was not the best time of my life, by far.

You see, ol’ Miss Independent here was a non believer…

We both come from a small town in PA but are growing to love the California lifestyle. He loves wine and I love cheese... the perfect combination! When I'm not drooling over wedding blogs, I'm attending grad school, out being a foodie, or attempting to "walk" our cat at the park. Two things guaranteed to excite me are wedding cakes and breaking out my suitcase to travel. Mr. Sunbeam and I are personalizing our hometown wedding to celebrate our high school sweetheart status and PA roots with a few CA touches. After ten years of dating we couldn't be more excited to call each other husband and wife!

Well gang, it’s a big day for the Sunbeams! Today we will celebrate 10 years of dating. I know, we can hardly believe it too. It’s a great number to end our years of dating as we move on to wedding anniversaries. Thanks to all our friends and family for supporting us as we struggled with love, long distance and just plain growing up. Here’s a real quick look back at the many years of us.
