Hello! Newbie Alert

Nubbin, 17 October, 2011 at 19:46 Posted on Planning 0 8

I've been lurking here for the past few days since the dude done the right thing and put a ring on it so I think I should properly introduce myself Smiley smile

I'm Jen - been engaged for oh, a grand total of 9 days and possibly spent 8.5 of those thinking all things marital.

I'm guessing it's only polite to tell you all how he done it, it really is smashing. We met at a club, 2 years ago and moved in (or to be more accurate, I hijacked his bachelor pad and made it all clean) after a year. We got a dog (hi Juno!)and started to talk about marriage seriously 6 months ago. Probably so the dog is legitimate, but i'll say it's because we are wonderful together. Anyhow, I was back at the club night we originally met at, which had a crazy wedding theme. Neil had contacted the band 3 weeks before, and asked them to learn 'our' song. Neil turned up at the club under the pretence of taking some pictures (he's a wedding TOG) for the band as we are friendly with the owners and when they started to play our song we had a wee dance together - then he went down on one knee, the band stopped playing and gave him the mike. I shouted some expletive (guess which one) and said 'aye, awright then' and promptly burst into tears Smiley smile

So that's that. The wedding is summer 2013. I'm now back on a major diet (I'm a walking cliche, I know) and scouring the net for all things wedding related!

Jen x
