Mrs. Sprinkle, Los Angeles Age and Occupation: 26, Preschool Teacher Fiance's Age and Occupation: 30, Television Production/Writer Engagement Date: December 24, 2008 Wedding Date: September 2009 Venue: The Marvimon House About Me: I'm a Bay Area native trying to create a life for myself (and my fiance, and our three cats!) in the vast city of Los Angeles. I love vegan red velvet cupcakes, pilates ,and mid-century furniture. Mr. Sprinkle and I met when my band toured through his city (we bonded over cake and a mutual love of Morrissey) and we are getting married on the four year anniversary of our first date. When I am not teaching preschool (or blogging!) you can find me perfecting recipes, petting kittens, hiking in Griffith Park, and overusing exclamation points. We are planning a vegan, green-as-possible, DIY wedding, and I couldn't be more excited to share all of the details!

Project: Table for Kidlets!

July 28th, 2009 @ 2:29 pm by Mrs. Sprinkle

Our reception will have a kids’ table. There was no way around it, and although I don’t think the children will actually stay at their table through dinner, I am having SO MUCH FUN planning it out. This has been my favorite project so far, but it is a hard one. How do I keep 10-20 children (kids were 20% of our guest list!) entertained…

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!
About Mrs. Gummi Bear

Mr. GB and I are that couple. That couple that your kids love to see because our house is filled to the brim with candy and has all the coolest toys. We buy kids whatever they want, spoil them rotten, and then send them home pouting and saying “but THEY let me do _____!! How come you’re not as cool as they are!?” Mr. GB claims…

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.

Our Baby Boom Guest List

August 10th, 2008 @ 4:04 pm by Mrs. Sea Breeze

I have been to some weddings which did not live up to the bride and groom’s expectations.

No, we’re not talking invitations or flowers or even cake here. I’m talking about one of those things that you spend hours and hours planning for but still sometimes can’t really control - the guest list.

Unfortunately, at these weddings, once the reception began, no one got the hilarious jokes…

Distractions for Little Hands

July 25th, 2008 @ 11:00 am by Mrs. Peacock

We didn’t invite every kid in our life as a guest to the wedding, although it is starting to feel like we are planning a circus. But who doesn’t love a circus (without the clowns)?

These cases of fun are for the three eight/nine year old girls. I included some little goodies from Bath and Body Works (Bubble Gum lip gloss, Sweet Pea lotion, a plastic…

I’m super artsy at heart - I run an indie craft site, I grew up shooting and developing my own film, doing jazz and ballet, and the whole gamut of art classes. I’ve been called a Jane of all Trades… but I was also told many years ago not to make my passion my career because it’d suck the fun out of it. Hence my choice of day job. We live in Seattle but are having our wedding in Canada to be fair to all our family and friends.

Little Men And Women

March 10th, 2008 @ 2:37 pm by Mrs. Jasmine

Some of my fondest memories growing up are those of my relatives’ nuptials. When I was four, I was the flower girl in my uncle’s wedding. I performed my role beautifully until I got to the end of the aisle and refused to let go of my uncle’s leg. My mom eventually had to wrestle me away — ahh the beginnings of co-dependence

About Me: In all my dreams of the man I'd someday marry, I never pictured anyone as perfect for me as Mr. Tulip. So now we just have to make it through the craziness of the wedding and the moving in together! I love crafts, sewing, jewelry making, and photography, so am looking forward to this chance for DIY fun. When not wedding planning, I'm playing with our dog and 4 cats, Ebay shopping, or watching too much TV (often simultaneously!).
About Mrs. Tulip

Our hoped-for reception venue is tiny, so Mr. Tulip and I are finally getting serious about making an invitation list for The Big Day. And I have discovered that, on my side of the equation, there are roughly sixty adults with THIRTY children! (Mr. T’s side has ONE child!) Apparently, my friends and family are a fertile lot….

This is the most personal thing I’ve ever shared in all my years of blogging.  And I thought long and hard before deciding to share this with weddingbee readers, because it’s intensely personal (my mom will probably think I’m crazy). But if I can help some people and change some opinions, it’ll be worth it.

“So When Are You Having Babies?”

August 7th, 2007 @ 9:30 am by Mrs. Pearl

My name is Mrs. Pearl and I am a baby stalker.

That is my husband’s (eeeee, just getting used to saying that!) term of endearment for me regarding my absolute infatuation with babies. I love ’em. They smell great — like baby powder, milk, and sweetness. They’re soft. They’re adorable. I can pretty much find a baby in any crowd and make eyes with them the…

Unexpected Additions

July 25th, 2007 @ 4:55 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

I don’t hate babies. I don’t hate children. But I am incredibly uncomfortable and nervous around them, I don’t really know what to do with them. Mr. Gummibear loves watching me when I’m forced to interact with children. My best friend from elementary school placed her 5 month old little girl on my lap… I just stared at her silently. Mr. GB says to interact,…

When I’m not obsessing about our wedding I play the cello in my band (which Mr. Radish is in too), read as much as I can, sleep even more, travel whenever possible, and try to find time to have fun with my friends. I’m also working on finishing up my journalism degree with a concentration in environmental reporting and I’m the VP of my campus Amnesty International chapter… so I’m a pretty busy bee.

I Don’t Hate Kids, I Swear!

July 23rd, 2007 @ 3:07 pm by Mrs. Radish

I just don’t want a million of them coming to our wedding. But yesterday, Mr. Radish’s mother called and informed us that one of his cousins (and he has over 40 first cousins) asked her if he could bring his three kids to the reception. She told him yes… before she even checked with us! Most of Mr. Radish’s cousins are older than him and…

Kids, Kids, Everywhere

July 13th, 2007 @ 2:28 pm by Mrs. Corn

There are two schools of thought when it comes to children at weddings:

1) Kids are great
and
2) Not so much

While I tend to lean toward the former, Mr. Corn and his family definitely lean more towards the latter.

My biggest concern when considering our children options for the wedding was that I wanted as many of our friends and family as possible to be able to attend…

Kids Favors

July 12th, 2007 @ 7:39 pm by Mrs. Lovebug

If I were a kid, I’d be pretty peeved if my free wedding gift were a silver picture frame or bag of gourmet coffee. In fact, I’d probably throw it on the floor and pout. (I still do that, actually). Kid favors are one of those things that I never thought about until I came across these super cute Emotibles Earbud Charms from Fred Flare:

I really have no idea what it's going to end up looking like! Also, I picked Miss Bluebell for my name because I have blue eyes and I'm a loser like that.

Lots of my coworkers have babies since I work at a relatively young company, so I have always enjoyed the occasional baby pictures and stories.
