WOW What a review! I can see you spent a lot of time on that!! I'm sure it will help other brides to be!! I cant imagine how long that must have took you!!! You looked amazing and your hubby is HOT

Great job!!!



Thank you!!!

I type about 70 words per minute but it did take a few days to write even with the binder full of all the details at my fingertips. Adding the photos was the hard part.

Katrina, WOW!

The smiles on your faces that day just say it all. Thanks for the long review, and for selling me the votives, too (of course!) - they'll definitely be going to good use.

Everything looked flawless - all of your hard work really paid off. Your list of questions is soooooo very helpful - I've bumped it several times on the 07 board.

oh, and the OCD in me is in love with the fact that your heart bo-k mirrored your neckline!!!

Enjoy married life!!!



Thank you so much We were so pleased with how everything turned out.

Can I just tell you, DH actually noticed on our wedding day that the neckline of the dress matched the bouquet. Who says men don't notice details

HOLY CANOLI KATRINA!!!!!

I have a feeling law school was less work than your review
I didn't call you The Researcher for nothing.

I read all I could but I'll be blocking off a week of mu summer vacay to ready the rest

Everything looked BEAUTIFUL, especially Hey, Reggi looked pretty good himself

So glad you had such a wonderful day.



Saw you other post Thank you so much

Yeah, if nothing else I think everyone from 04 & 05 knows that I am thorough and verbose

Thank you ladies. DH & I are so pleased that so many people are finding all of our ramblings helpful.

We wish that each and every one of you experiences the same joy on your wedding day that we felt. It was a crazy ride getting to the altar with all the planning that had to be done but it really was worth it

Re: Our Wedding Story............

Hey Katrina!

You added a few more pics! Loved them! You know you worked out the review, the pics everything! I've said this before, but the beauty in your pictures is a reflection of the joy radiating from the two of you!

Thank you for the well-made comment about the cattiness that sometimes emerges on the boards. This website is about each of us trying to help one another. Sadly, we all know that hateration is mostly about people projecting their own insecurities onto others, but, thankfully, the women on these boards are above that!! Besides, you know what they say about karma....and no one wants to deal with that when it comes to their weddings!

Anyway, I digress. Thanks for the wonderful review!!
A million congrats to you and Reggie, my dear!!!!

Re: Our Wedding Story............

words cant describe what a wonderful review that was-
what a great idea to put all of your catering hall visits in there..and for sharing so many beautiful photos

so many future brides will definitely be "notebooking" your review.

also you looked absolutely stunning. you totally pulled that dress off- and you looked amazing in it.
also, your love for each other is completely visible in each and every picture.... i am so glad you had such a beautiful day.

Thank you!!!! It was a fantastic day.

Tiffanie is fantastic. She does hair for a lot of events and worked in LA on a t.v. show a while back . She started on the Arsenio Hall show. I just told her what I wanted and she worked it out

Alana Taking a break from your dissertation

My almost date twin Thank you so much for reviewing all of my ideas and for being a constant source of support Even through all the drama on the boards that has been around since I joined in 2004 (and likely well before that) I'm glad I found the chat boards and all of the wonderful women that were helpful to us

Hey Mel!!!! Thank you so much. We debated adding in all of the details but decided to be inclusive rather than take out anything. I am glad that others can benefit from our experience - even with the vendors we did not pick

I thought I would look like little bo peep in the hoop skirt but it really turned out great

I am so pleased with our photos and all the emotion in each shot. Lina Jang and her team did an amazing job capturing the day for us. DH always hated posing for photos so for them to get so many great shots without him having to pose much is wonderful

Thank you so much everyone The bridalplannergroup sites were so helpful to us that we felt obligated to put up a review. We found our hall and many vendors through the sites.

We are so glad that others are finding it helpful
