Miss Pretzel, Seattle Age and Occupation: 32 Learning, Training, and Development Specialist Fiance's Age and Occupation: 28 Manufacturing Engineer Engagement Date: September 2, 2009 Wedding Date: July 2010 Venue: Catholic Church & The Engine Room at Georgetown Studios About Me: I’m just a thirty-something girl who never dreamed of weddings, poofy dresses, or ritzy receptions. I was born and raised in New Hampshire, went to undergrad and grad school at Purdue University in Indiana, had my career take me to Wisconsin, Atlanta, and then finally settled in Seattle. I am a rabid knitter, except recently, wedding projects have replaced my yarn and needles. I’ve been fiercely independent since the age of 2 and 30 years later I think my family and friends had given up on me settling down and getting married. Ironically, I had to go all the way to Seattle to find a boy from Purdue. We fell in love over Seattle Beers and cooking together. We love Chuck Taylor All Stars, holding hands, clever t-shirts, bacon, KEXP Radio, craft beer, buying local, cooking from scratch, gardening, mastering our new Gocco, and of course, each other. I love NASCAR, he loves Legos. I can talk like a Muppet and he can fit a whole McDonald’s cheeseburger in his mouth. We are a two reception couple, currently planning a brewery inspired bash.

Sneak Peek: Hair Flower in Action

November 3rd, 2009 @ 12:51 pm by Miss Pretzel

Engagement photos blew my mind! Everything fell into place on that day and just “clicked”. Here is a sneak peek of the day:

  • Makeup trial: CHECK! I’m totally going to book Shannon, owner of I Love Blush to do my makeup for the wedding. Airbrushing is totally worth it—I had my makeup on from 10 AM until 10 PM and it looked awesome. Also, I’ve sworn…

PWC-Post Wedding Chop

November 2nd, 2009 @ 2:27 pm by Mrs. Beagle

Like others that have gone before me, I was sooooo ready for a change after the wedding. So ready that I made a hair appointment for the following Friday. Here’s the before (taken about a month ago at my final shower with my sister---can you see the resemblance?):

One of my favorite things to do is to declare that I’m going to grow my hair long, then chop it off a month later. A year ago, SistahChips threw a “I’m turning 30—Let’s Wig Out!” party and I donned this realistic looking beauty:

Headband

October 29th, 2009 @ 5:31 pm by Miss Frozen Yogurt

Remember when I said I wanted to wear a hair flower? Well, I lied. Okay, I didn’t really lie, but I’m having a hard time keeping my eyes away from all the latest headband eye candy out there.

See, two things really did me in. First was watching Say Yes to the Dress. I mean, Randy pulls out all of these amazing things, and I just…

We’ve poured ourselves into planning a wedding that reflects our personal style - modern and high contrast with a vintage twist. Blogging keeps me creative, baking keeps me happy, and grande nonfat no foam sugar free vanilla lattes keep me sane.
About Mrs. Stiletto

I’m pretty sure I contacted everyone in the greater Chicago-area who might do hair and makeup for weddings. I wanted someone to work on-site at the hotel I was staying at for the wedding, to do both hair and makeup, to be somewhat affordable, and of course, to be fabulous!

Morgan Blaul definitely personified fabulosity. She was super chill and great to work with for my…

I love art (all kinds). I don't have any secrets. I talk a lot and listen even more. I show love by baking. I'm timid by nature, but brave when it counts. Mr. Bunny and I work at competing weekly newspapers, which makes it a little interesting trying to describe our work joys and frustrations without giving away too much before the paper comes out. In spite of that little hurdle, we've managed to build a pretty solid relationship in the short one-and-a-half years we will have been together when we tie the knot. I can't wait!

I couldn't live without Pantone markers, fountain soda (3/4 diet, ¼ regular Coke), run-on sentences, or ridiculously oversized sunglasses. I will try to DIY almost anything and am just OCD enough to make most of it work. I am truly excited about having all my family and friends together, becoming Mrs. Gloss, and having amazing photos to prove it!

I Love a Good Blow… Out!

October 13th, 2009 @ 11:06 am by Mrs. Gloss

This weekend was supposed to be my PWC (post wedding chop) weekend, and I was VERY ready. I was Google image searching ALL Friday for ’short curly hair’ knowing that I was ready for a big change (which doesn’t happen that often). After venting my frustration about only finding decaying pictures from the ’80s and early ’90s - Mrs. Cupcake confirmed my fear that there…

Hair Affair

October 7th, 2009 @ 11:08 am by Miss French Fries

I’ve always known that I’m not a typical bridal tiara kind of girl. I tried a few of them on out of obligation when I was out looking for dresses, but they didn’t really feel like me. They were gorgeous, no doubt, but I really am not a “bling” kind of girl. I thought that maybe I could find some pretty barrettes or a brooch…

Because That’s How I Roll

October 3rd, 2009 @ 5:55 pm by Ms Potato Chips

I luurrve my hairstylist. Whenever I leave the salon after paying her a visit, I strut back to my car. I feel that good. Sometimes it’s even a swagger. I find excuses to continue my strut past my car and down the street, to the bank or the bookstore, just to let the wind catch my hair and so that drivers stopped at lights can admire…

My Hair

September 22nd, 2009 @ 5:27 pm by Miss Frozen Yogurt

I’m pretty certain that I want to wear my mantilla veil for the ceremony only and then put a hair flower in for the reception. I’m actually thinking I might try to make the hair flower (I’ll take pictures of the process once I tackle that project).

But what about the rest of my hair? I’m thinking I want to wear my hair half-up, but I have been drawn to some of the more lose updos. Here’s what I’m thinking for updos (all photos from Project Wedding).

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!

Hair Trials and Trials Again.

Post Wedding Plunge!

September 6th, 2009 @ 3:55 pm by Mrs. Taffy

I did not intend on partaking in the popular post wedding chop.

I have pretty much always had long hair*, so I wasn’t even trying to grow it out for the wedding. I never considered taking a lot of length off! Not for one minute… until a very bad “trim” lead me to the chop. Let me explain.

I didn’t have time to get a trim after…

I keep lists for fun, am constantly daydreaming of my next international travel adventure (four continents down, three to go), debating sports (let’s Got Mets/Giants!) and dancing around my apartment to stay sane. I am excited to share our wedding planning journey as I hope to plan a streamlined, personal, and fun wedding with the greatest life partner I could ever imagine, Mr. Swan.
About Mrs. Swan

When we last left me, your worried heroine, I was NOT at all happy with my hair situation.

I had a rough draft, I was not happy with the real run-through for a variety of reasons, and there I was, practically a week before the wedding, stressing about what to do with my hair. At this point, Mr. Swan stepped in. During the process he had…
