Miss Labrador's Picture
Miss Labrador Retriever, Athens/Savannah Age and Occupation: 24, Student/Sports Reporter Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Physical Therapy Assistant Student/Future Dr. of PT Engagement Date: December 31, 2008 Wedding Date: November 2009 Venue: Whitfield Square/Savannah Station About Me: I'm working on my second degree from UGA (Go Dawgs!). I'm a self-proclaimed attention-w****. If it involves a camera, I'm in front of it! You'll never meet a girlier tomboy than me. I can go toe to toe with any guy on the subject of college football, and lift more than any girl in my gym, all without chipping a nail. I hope to someday be the only person you want delivering your sports news. My FI and I are the loving parents of three Labrador Retrievers (one of each color) and are planning a "Southern Romantic Charm" wedding in the beautiful, historic city of Savannah. I'm not extreme in anything except moderation... and wedding planning.

Finally! And the third time was the charm…

Attempt #1: Mr. Lab and I got all the way to the courthouse with our paperwork filled out and money ready to go. But then we realized we forgot our certificate proving we completed marriage counseling. Said certificate would save us $30. We decided that was plenty enough to wait until our officiant could mail us the required…

What’s In a Name?

November 5th, 2009 @ 12:40 pm by Miss French Fries

Recently I got caught up in a conversation about whether or not I was going to change my last name once Mr. French Fries and I tie the knot. I said that I intend to change my name to his, but there never really was much question in my mind whether I would or would not. Call me traditional if you will, but I’ve always…

Miss Dachshund, Fresno, CA Age and Occupation: 24, Legal Office Assistant Fiance's Age and Occupation: 27, Computer Technician Engagement Date: April 18, 2009 Wedding Date: May 2010 Venue: Victorian Gardens of Two Sisters About Me: I’m a 24-year-old Californian bride-to-be who found love in the most unlikely of places - an online video game! I’m a farmer’s daughter living in rural Central California, but will always have a special place in my heart for the city. My future husband is a 27-year-old extraordinarily tall, exceptionally cute, and undoubtedly Canadian boy who was able to sweep me off my feet and take me for his bride. I love color, folksy songs that make me smile, interior design, kettle corn, my one-year-old puppy, Juno, and my fiance, of course! We’re planning a DIY garden wedding with a laundry-list of projects, all while dealing with the bureaucracy that is American Immigration!

We’re Legal!

November 3rd, 2009 @ 6:39 pm by Miss Dachshund

Hey guys! I suppose another apology is in order; I’ve been the worst blogger lately, and for that I feel terrible! But things have finally settled down, and I don’t foresee any more extended absences in the near future.

Anyway, a lot has happened since you’ve seen me last. Mr. Doxie is in California for good, thank goodness, and we got married!

Well, technically anyway.

Making It (Almost) Legal

October 21st, 2009 @ 1:45 pm by Miss Cloud

We had a few moments of free time the other day, which is rare for us working complete opposite work schedules most days, so we decided to take a little trip down to the courthouse and take care of one little to-do we had almost forgotten about… our marriage license!

My hobbies include sleeping in, seasonal brews, running, Trader Joe’s, and watching Unwrapped and Good Eats with Mr. Potato Chips. I harbor an irrational fear of tulle, crafts, things that are fussy, and overuse of the phrase "Your Special Day". After a year or seven together, down the aisle we go, slouching toward adulthood and planning a Rhodie party with equal parts whimsy, cheer, and pizza.

That’s Not My Name

October 16th, 2009 @ 6:27 pm by Ms Potato Chips

There was no putting off the day that advanced—the bridal day; and all preparations for its arrival were complete. I at least, had nothing more to do: there were my trunks, packed, locked, corded, ranged in a row along the wall of my little chamber: to-morrow, at this time, they would be far on their road to London: and so should I (God willing),—or rather,…

I enjoy carving, drawing, reading and sewing; I drool over computers, fabric, pretty paper, purple and patterns. To me, chocolate should be one of the seven wonders, right next to lemon pie. I never thought an exchange work experience program was going to change my life forever, but while working in California, I met Mr. Poodle, and ever since my days are better and brighter. We are two goofy souls that, after finding each other, couldn’t help but want to be together forever. It has being a long and sometimes hard road, since we have to deal with such a long distance between us, but we are now facing the last stage of our Fiancé Visa, and soon we will be together. You know the best part? We will be married! So I’ll be blogging from Chile until just a few months before our “green and purple” wedding.

A Bump in the Road

I thought this week I was going to write the post I’ve been waiting to write for 221 days.

Making it Legal: Our Unusual Nuptials

September 24th, 2009 @ 1:20 pm by Miss Dachshund

In my introduction post, I mentioned that Mr. Dachshund and I will have to be legally married before his visa expires, which is about three months from the time he’ll arrive in the US. That left us with two options: making it legal beforehand, or planning our wedding around our immigration time-line. The latter would have been doable if our timing had been better. However,…

Amazing News, and “The Beginning”!

I officially passed my medical exam for the visa! YAY! Some of you may be wondering, ‘But didn’t you already tell us that your case was approved?’ Well, the visa process is looooong, and there’s a gazillion steps. What I was celebrating back then was getting our NOA2 (Second notice of action). After that, our case was sent to the US Embassy here in Chile,…

Then I followed my beau out here to LA and we're getting settled in. I've been making things since I can remember. I was raised by crafters. I love to sew, draw, paint, build, cook, bake (anything with a tangible end result is fair game). In that same spirit, I've been hosting since I was old enough to cook and set a fancy table. I kind of take after my grandmother, who believes that your morning OJ always tastes better out of the good crystal.

We had our civil ceremony mini-wedding in July, and it was quite enjoyable. We were at Point Dume in Malibu. We experienced some huge waves and it was a bit overcast. Fog doesn’t look as good in pictures, but it would have been sweltering in the sun.

Pretend you’re me for a minute.

For the past 26 years, you’ve heard your full name (first, middle and last) pronounced correctly only about 25 percent of the time — and spelled properly even less frequently than that! Childhood teasing has given way to puzzled looks from adults when you insist that, despite the Scottish surname, you’re more Italian than anything else.
