August 12, 2006: Nikkiana & Matt's Wedding

[nikkiana]

I'm generally not really into the whole journaling thing on message boards, but I figured I'd start a journal on here if nothing else to just share what I'm planning for my wedding with everyone else and to mildly amuse myself for the next two weeks or so before my wedding....

To give a little overview about us.... FH and I met in college. We took a World History course together and I thought he was cute so I kept starring at him until he decided to strike up a conversation with me. :)

We've been together about three and a half years...

We got engaged last August... I tell people that I had two proposals.... My first one was at the NH Craftsmen's Fair at Mt. Sunapee where we picked out my ring and FH put a down payment on it.... The second propsal was when we got the ring and he took me out to some infamous grafiti that reads "Chicken Farmer I Still Love You"

This is my gorgeous engagement ring.

This is where the second propsal took place.

I guess I'll just start showing you some pictures of stuff... Just because pictures are cool!

Let's start with wedding day attire, shall we?
