Your Rings

My DH and I are looking for a new ring for me. Nothing too expensive. We are getting new wedding bands when we have our ceremony next year. But we also wanted to get a new ring for me. Not a replacement engagement ring but just something nice to add to the band. Don't get me wrong, I love diamonds. What girl wouldn't? But it is just so expensive and we are planning to put that money towards the actual ceremony. Anyone think its cheap or tacky to buy a white gold ring with a CZ instead? They look just as nice and much more affordable. Your thoughts?

Hi all,
My name is Sarah and I am bride-in-07 on Boston.com. I am looking forward to meeting you guys. As far as wedding planning, I have only gotten the date, the place, the dress, the attendants, and of course, the groom to be. I am still debating over colors non stop so let me know if you have any suggestions.

See you soon,
Sarah

Introduction

Hi! It worked! Well hello ladies. My name is Sok.. pronounce "Sock".. yes like the ones you wear on your feet. My alias on BDC is Married23 =) As some of you may know, my ceremony/wedding/renewal of vows... whatever you want to call it, is not until October 2007 but I still love to talk about it! I only have three girlfriends.. two of them in California and one here.. so it's hard to talk about wedding stuff without overdoing it... I am so glad to have found the wedding section of BDC because I was getting completely frustrated hehe. But anyways... So glad to be here and can't wait to meet everyone!

p.s. here is my website. it doesn't have much. just a picture.

Introduction

Hi ladies-

I thought it might be nice to introduce myself a little, and you can all do the same if you'd like. I let myself be a member too, so I don't always have to post as the BAB admin... I like having a name, I guess :)

Sooo, I'm Cara. I lived in Watertown for 6 years until my fiance & I bought a house in Sturbridge. We love it out here, but I miss my friends in the city, and miss meeting new people through work, etc.! I used to be a teacher, but now I work for myself, so it's mostly just me and my dogs (and the wedding boards!) all the time. It will be nice to put some faces to everyone's personalities.

Since this is about our weddings, here's my wedding websites:

caraandtimothy.weddings.com

We're getting married in the Finger Lakes region of NY. I'm originally from outside Buffalo, a lot of my family live out in Western NY still, so we chose a beautiful place near enough for them to drive for the day. It's gorgeous there, although doing the trip back and forth for planning is putting a lot of miles on my poor Jeep. Worth every one :)

Welcome! Round up the troops!

Hello ladies- quite a few of us have expressed interest in a get together. I thought this would be an easy way to organize. To join, send an email to:

bostonareabrides@charter.net

Once you're a "member," you can create posts, leave comments, etc.

I just discovered that you need to include your email in your email to me please, so then I can add you :) If I don't add you as a member of this blog, you can't create posts of your own, only comments. Of course, if you'd rather just monitor and leave comments without being a member that's fine too.


If all works as I think it will, this will make it easy for everyone to communicate and set up events, or just share ideas with the group.

--Cara (your friendly admin, aka clm77 from boston.com boards)
