Ive been looking at the forums all week so I thought I'd join and introduce myself! im lisa, getting married next june to my oh mark, we began as friends with benefits about 13 years ago and been a couple for about 11. we have a 10 year old son and most of our family & friends had decided we would never get married, us getting engaged in june (and announcing we had booked the wedding already) was quite a nice surprise for them!

    Thanks for all the welcomes Smiley laugh my oh has been wanting to get married for a long time but I didn't feel ready (stupid when you have a child and a mortgage I know) it simply felt too grown up and a bit scary tbh. 3 years ago we planned to go to vegas for my 30th and get married while we were there but my sis got preggers and the baby was due on my birthday and I wanted to be there so we cancelled it. we didn't arrange anything else and just chatted about it now and again, but I began to feel silly saying introducing him as 'my boyfriend' after so long together and at my age haha. my oh brought it up seriously again at the beginning of the year and we decided to go for it and book the wedding however at the time it was the run up to my sisters wedding so we didn't tell anyone in case we took the shine away from her (she went mad when we told her)

    Haha I know how you feel! We've been engaged for years and kept putting it off to do other things, we've been together 9 years and people were always asking when we're getting married so I always felt a bit silly. Decided to make the decision together to put our minds to it and definitely get it done.
    I'm sure it'll be worth the wait haha we might appreciate it more having waiting so long ?
