Mrs. Bruschetta, PhiladelphiaAge and Occupation: 25, Communication ProfessionalFiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Physical Therapy Graduate StudentEngagement Date: November 30, 2007Wedding Date: August 2009Venue: St. Thomas of Villanova Church & the F.U.E.L. HouseAbout Me: I’m a self-proclaimed grammar geek who loves singing (like, really belting it) in the car. My mister and I are planning a vibrant summer soiree celebrating our passions – including food and Philly – and when we make it official, we’ll have been together for eight years! Being super competitive is in my nature, and talking excessively is in my genes. I’ve got a terrible sense of direction, but can always easily find my way into Mr. Bruschetta’s arms.
It’s your loyal linguistic pundit (::wink wink::) here, with another round of wedding witticism. Have you cottoned on yet to the fact that I consider wordplay a full-contact sport?
fondon’t
-noun
a person exhibiting a polarizing attitude about the superiority of buttercream as wedding cake icing
We hoped to try a variety of cake combinations, but since the baker was a fondon’t, we only sampled confections topped…
Mrs. Toucan, BostonAge and Occupation: 25, Full-time Research Assistant, Part-time Graduate StudentFiance's Age and Occupation: 25, ActuaryEngagement Date: February 18, 2007Wedding Date: June 7, 2008Blogging Since: November 07, 2007Venue: St. Catherine of Genoa, Jin Asian Cuisine RestaurantAbout Me: I’m a Gemini to the extreme. On one side, I’m a girly girl. I read countless bridal and fashion magazines, and have an obsession with keeping up with the latest Hollywood gossip. On the other side, I’m a sports fanatic. Despite being a full-time bride-to be, full-time research assistant, and part-time student, I’m also a full-time Red Sox fan from spring training to October, and a full-time Patriots fan from mini-camp to February. I devote almost as much time researching my for fantasy football team as researching for our wedding!
For this Valentine’s Day, I found Mr. Toucan the BEST present EVER*. I’ve decided to enter him into the Husband of the Year Contest**. Unfortunately, I am sad to report that our entry was disqualified since we aren’t married yet (boo! silly technicality!). Anyway, after seeing the results, I’m not sure he would have stood a chance anyway!

I enjoy decorating, writing, baking sweet things, singing show tunes/dancing in public, wearing pearls, and knitting sweaters for my furbaby, Harvey, to chew upon. I heart pink, and believe that sparkles are the new black.

I'm a PR and Marketing Director for a major jazz festival and camp by day, and by night, a romantic jazz singer and bride-to-be! I hope all my research can help other brides in their planning.

I’ve mentioned previously how much I love icanhascheezburger and lolsecretz - sites spawned from the lolcats phenomenon. Well now Liene over at Blue Orchid Designs has just created a new LOLWeddings site! Since it’s a quiet Thursday, I thought we’d take a funny wedding picture and add a LOL caption to it.
This is my bridesmaid right after she missed the bouquet. You guys are so creative……

I am a lovah of all things wedding, creative, crafty, and definitely DIY bc I love to add a personal touch to everything I gift or make. In my free time, I like to bake, spend time with our family, friends, and my doggies, read my guilty pleasure celebrity gossip and catch up on TV shows.
Towards the beginning of my engagement, I met with a lot of different friends, and one of them gave me her cutest confession: She told me she practiced her smile in front of the mirror for the big day. That’s not just cute, it’s good advice! I’m sure you want to look your best on your wedding day, and no matter how much you practice,…

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!).
Courtesy of "Britain’s Youngest Brides." I don’t know how to shorten the video clip, but if you watch from roughly 6:30 to 3:30 (as it counts backwards), I promise you won’t be disappointed! Watching them squish that bride into the limo was the funniest thing I’ve seen all week….

Fortunately, I have learned that both are not so bad if you squint your eyes and hold your breath. When I'm not planning our 180-ish (90% family!) person wedding, I like to poke fun at Mr. Broccoli, read big books, and drink endless cups of tea.

The 1st Affair
A married man was having an affair with his secretary.
One day they went to her place and made love all afternoon.
Exhausted, they fell asleep and woke up at 8 PM.
The man hurriedly dressed and told his lover to take his shoes outside and rub them in the grass and dirt.
He put on his shoes and drove home.
“Where have you been?” his wife demanded.
