For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

I thought this would be fun to reminisce!

Here is mine:

Today is my last day at work, so I probably won't be on much for the next few days.

I can't believe I'm actually typing this! When I first joined this site I had over 800 days to go and I never thought this day would come.

Just want to Thank everyone for all the great advice and help over the last two years. You all have helped me so much!

I will try to get on before I leave for my honeymoon with some pictures, but if not, I will definitely post them when I get back.

Talk to you all in a few weeks!

I'M OFF TO GET MARRIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

here is mine!

With 1 day, 22 hours 24 minutes and 5 seconds to go, I am finally signing off to get married.

You all have been such an amazing part of my wedding process and at times, this was the only place I was able to 'get my bride on.'

I am meeting FFIL for the first time tonight (he flew in from Chile) and am leaving early tomorrow morning for my Mom's house....

Thank you all for EVERYTHING!!!

Re: For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

Well ladies it is my turn to say goodbye. Thank you ladies for all your ideas and support. The wedding is on Saturday so I need to pack and get ready to go to Long Island. This site helped me out so much. Living in Maryland and planning a wedding in LI is not easy or cheap. (Just look at my cellphone bill). But you all where right here willing to help. Thanks again. I will post some pictures when I get back in town.

Date Twins It is our Day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!Good luck to all. On Saturday sit back and look at how well this planning paid off. PARTYTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's time for the goodbye speech as is tradition on this wacky site!

I came upon this site and discovered all the outrageous things one can do to plan a wedding. I was a queen of the search function. I really had no idea I could ever catch on to something like this! After all, my first dream of a wedding was to have it at a huge Bar & Grill and just party all night! No joke! I wanted it to be that simple, relaxed and fun! Ask BunnyBride! You might believe this one- I even considered Yankee Stadium! OMG who knew it could turn into this unbelievably well planned and organized Yankee themed wedding!

You’ve all been there as I’ve shared ideas and begged you all to help me make countless decisions!! When my family, BP, friends were tired of the endless talk/questions/indecision….you were all there for me. THANK YOU! The amount of support I’ve received on this site is unbelievable and SO appreciated. So many of you are special to me so I can’t even begin to name names. Every single one of you helped make it happen in direct or roundabout ways.

And let’s not forget Ron, Liz and Kimberly! Thanks for this site!! Weddings have never been the same!

And thank you to those of you who have been sending FMs to wish me the best…I’m so touched that so many people are thinking of us!

Though they may not be reading, I have to thank and give credit to my amazing sisters/MOHs, my mom, family and friends. No way on earth could this be possible without them. And of course to Brett, who has put up with SO MUCH. He has the patience of a saint, supporting me through this crazy time as well as starting a new career, all the while making me laugh and simply making me happier than I’ve ever been - and showing me the meaning of unconditional love. OMG I love this guy soooo much and I’m finally MARRYING HIM!!!! AHHHH!!!! I’m too freaking lucky!!!

Thank you everyone!! Congrats to all the newlyweds and brides to be! Newlyweds, you remember this moment…and brides to be- you are ALMOST there!!! ’07 is more than halfway over! It’s your turn too!! All of the planning will be behind you and none of it will matter- that’s the best part. Knowing you will see your best friend at the end of the aisle, beginning the newest and greatest chapter of your life is really the most unbelievable feeling in the world.

I know this won’t be the last of my posts before 3:30pm TOMORROW but I just had give my speech while I still had some semblance of a brain left!

Okay I tried to trim this down, but you girls know me and my novel posts… You’re the best!!!

I’ll chat with ya soon!

Re: For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

I just got home from my rehersal dinner and I'm sitting here on the couch at my parents house in awe after the events of today.

I'd like to thank all of you girls for your support, encouragement, ideas and everyday presence. Many of you know that the last few months have been very difficult for me with my parents pending divorce, buying a house 3 weeks before my wedding and my injury at work 1 month ago that has left me on disability. You have all been my 'ROCK', I always knew that when things were at their worse, my LIW girls would always have wonderful words of encourgement for me.

I love you all for your kinds words and strong but silent presence. I wish all of you still preparing your weddings to enjoy and savor each moment, I have already noticed that it goes by so fast.

Tomorrow I marry my best friend, my confidant, my strongest supporter and my hero. I wish you all the very best. I hope to try and sneak a few minutes to post some pictures soon. If I'm not able right after the wedding, we have no internet in the new house yet, I will defenitely post after my 3 week honeymoon!!

For all of the future brides, may your day be everything you hope and more and may you feel and truly appreciate the love that surrounds you on your wedding day.

Thank you all,
~Maria~

WELL! I just can not believe that it's actually my turn to say goodbye... My counter will say 1 day in a few short hours... It seems like yesturday that I started posting on here & meeting GREAT girls. It really is comforting to know theres a whole gang of girls who are going through the exact same emotions- excitement, nervousness, joy, sorrow, the list goes on... I can honestly say that this time was nothing but pure EXCITEMENT [and I don't mean this is a good way] I've never ran around so much in my life, worked so hard, fought battles in my own head, there was just something new happenening every MINUTE in these past few months. It is extremely overwhelming but looking back to it, it was mostly amazing memories...

I will truly miss seeing my best friend, MOH, sister-I-never-had, consigliere- Jessica AKA Belongs2DanBuckley every day almost.. You have done SO much for me I can't even begin to thank you. This girl has been at my side from DAY 1, and I'm not talking about just our engagement... she's been there for me throughout my entire life practically. We went to school together since we were 5, and became very close in high school. This girl was at my side the morning of my Sweet 16- decorating, organizing, and being there for me emotionally. She was there for me when I started dating my FH in 1999 when I was 17- I was scared sh!tless of boys and she was the first to tease me & make me realize that it's just a d!ck.... She's been there for me throughout college, through the good times & bad times with our FHs, she's held buckets for me to puke in at IHOP, she made me get on skis for the first time, she really has brightened my life & eased my nerves during stressful times. And now, she has driven distances for me to see reception halls, to check out favors, to PICK UP 1400 boxes of favors, to WRAP the 1400 favors, to make 3457 programs by hand, to listen to me p!ss & moan about everything under the sun, the list goes on FOREVER... she really has been right by my side through absolutely every step of this, almost as much as FH has been! She has a heart of gold, and did everything and anything she could for me to make my life that much simpler. And then theres the amazing gifts she's given us- a bottle of Cristal, a wine refrigerator, a Lladro, a patio set, a BBQ- these are only SOME of the million gifts she's given us. Jess, you have worked SO HARD for this and I can not begin to thank you enough from the bottom of my heart. I am so blessed to have you here by my side. I look forward to eternal years with you and Buckley, raising [or beating] our children together and growing so old we have to clean each others bed pans. THANK YOU for being you. I can NOT wait to get back from my HM so we can REALLY get cracking on your upcoming wedding. I look forward to spending more of these restless days and nights with you.. You're going to be a beautiful bride & more importantly- an amazing wife.

I also thank my other best friends who are in my wedding party- Dayna, Dana & Veronica who also have been there for me through thick & thin for many many years. And to my OTHER best friends who are taking part in my wedding- Cynthia aka Chachi296, Karen & Michelle. I am so happy that you are all sharing in my joy & excitement and being there for one of the most important days of my life. Cynthia- I also can NOT wait for your wedding day- another one bites the dust You are going to make a drop dead gorgeous bride & I hope you know I'm here to help you with ANYTHING as well! Many thanks to Melissa AKA MrsBrags7706 who is off celebrating her 1 year anniversary- I feel so blessed that we could share all these exciting moments together & that I had you there to ask wedding related questions to all day long
to many many more beautiful memories together.

And LIW girls- thank you for inspiring me to make the absolute most of my buck for my wedding day. I got great ideas from this site, learned so many things about weddings that I never knew, and cured ALOT of boredom at work I met so many great girls on here I can not begin to list them all.. I am sad to leave you all for the rest of July.

To my date twin Dale AKA Dalito322 & any other 7.13.07er out there- Good luck & God bless!
Same to the 7.14ers & 7.15ers:
Athee07, trish71407, Narf0714, MTLom, L&R, happybride07, Kellysgirl, Cristina0707, bliss0218, hayleyandsteve, bettybcafe, vmystique33, naps714, blushingBride714, Nicole&Jim, Suzie07, JessMxPx88, Flutterbye922- I can't believe our weekend has finally come!

I also would especially like to thank all the past brides on here for the beautiful reviews. You really made this process that much easier on us!

Finally I'd like to thank my FH Dan for being so involved in this process. It shows that you truly do want this day to happen, and you're not just trying to please me I can't believe that after 8 1/2 years of growing into adults together, we're becoming husband & wife. I look forward to a very very long, happy life together and eternally being wed. In the end, it's ME & YOU.

Re: For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

OMG i remember when I wrote this... I wish it was that day =(((

I have been so incredibly busy the last few days that I havent had ANY TIME to sign online..... I just bought a connection at my hotel room, so I wanted to pop in and say HELLO AND THANK YOU to all the lovely ladies who have helped me plan this craziness.

Ive been so STRESSED... but the instant I checked into the hotel and hung out with my family and FH's family (in our totally awesome bridal suite that we'll have for 3 days!!!) I started to get excited. Our bridal party arrives today and tonight is our rehersal

I love you guys... hopefully I can get o here and say a proper goodbye tonight.

I will promise to hang around and watch all of you get *here*

Everyone else, you have been amazing to me ... thanks for all the support laughs... Since my first day 'here' I have felt a connection with all of you.

Even though I've only been here less than a year, its been informative and helpful and Ive grown attached to you guys.

Re: For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

OK, mine is ridiculously LONG!!!!! it was exactly 2 weeks ago today!

_______________________________________________
Where has all the time gone???? I seriously cannot believe this is my goodbye post......Mike & I have been dating for almost 7 years, I waited 6 years for the proposal, but wow did the last year fly by!!

I truly do not know how I would have put this wedding together without making myself completely nuts if I didn't have LIW! I found so many of my vendors through LIW- Duet, Flower Michelle, Dazzling Affairs, Bridal Elegance, Starlight Express.....I know my wedding will be great because of these vendors!!! Thank you to Ron, Liz & especially Kim who has always been so sweet when I see her at LIW events!!!

As for the LIWer's who have been there for me......there are sooooooo many of you who have helped me out along the way, perhaps you listened to my venting posts (all the way back to the beginning when I had family drama w/ picking our wedding date), read some of my excited posts (getting my dress, picking vendors etc.) or just gave an opinion on one of the many indecisive polls I put up......you have all been like a 24/7 bride network but like family at the same time!! thank you for giving me a shoulder to lean on when I needed one!!!

There are a few people I'd like to single out.......

MimiMcG- my best friend since I'm 5 years old!!! She is a month away from her own wedding, but yet she is still finding the time to help me out!!!! Especially this week, I just don't know what I would have done without you!!!! Picking up my dress, dropping favors off at the hall, coming her at midnight to help out a frantic bride.....you've been there for me every time I needed you for the past 22 years!!! I love you so much and I can't wait to party with you tomorrow!!!!!

Brady37- Kerri......what can I say? we were inseparable as teenagers, and I'm so happy that our friendship has stood the test of time!!! we'll have to think of some kind of new acronym meaning for BCF, I think we're both supposed to act like ladies now that we're married!!!!! love u girl!

JenMike331- wow who knew back in the days of the 'volvo' that we'd be bridesmaids at each others weddings??? you are one of the funniest people I know, thank you for always being my comic relief when I needed it!!! how bout we have an 'after party' at Bref's tomorrow?? hey ya never know!!! love ya!!

AllJoy- Joyce you are just one of the sweetest people I've ever met!!!! don't ever change!! and thank you for always checking in w/ me to see if I'm still sane!!

Jiffy- Nic- although you've been MIA from LIW and you're off enjoying your newlywed bliss......I wanted to say thanks for all the funny posts and for getting us all together last December- I had a great time.....we'll have to do it again after Mimi's married!!!

GettinHutched- Tara, you are such an awesome person!!! Thanks for showing me that I wasn't the only majorly indecisive bride on LIW (I mean that in a good way!!!) I was so happy to meet a fellow Beatles fanatic......I hope you and Brett are having fun as newlyweds!!!!

Kara and Todd- Kara.....it was such a pleasure meeting you & sharing some wine at Douglaston last year.....and I was so happy I could help you with your hall search!! You have always been the voice of reason on LIW!!! you seem to see things from both sides, and I love reading your input!! thanks for always being there to hear me vent!!

Twinkletoes807- GABI!!! you may no longer be my Howard Beach neighbor but I still consider you a good friend!!! we have to do starbucks again (or we could always surpass the coffee and go straight for beers!! ........you are going to be such a beautiful bride today!!! I hope your having fun right now!!

MrsQ-in2007- Yesenia......it was great meeting you and all the other girls at the June GTG (including LaNaria, Janelle, Oksana, Lupe, and Diane!!)....thanks so much for your petal cone template, it was put to good use yesterday when I finally got all of them done!! (well actually this is when MimiMcG came to the rescue again and help me put them together!!)....can't wait to see your wedding pics when I'm sure Duet will do yet another awesome job!!

SuzArtie- one of my hall twins.....thanks for comparing notes with me!! I'll be giving you my full review very shortly!!

PreshusSmurf- Jess- thanks so much for dealing with me looking through invites in your store for like an hour!! lol!!! you always give such great advice......can't wait to see your wedding pics!!!

And to all my date twins!! Mooshyboo, PinkieGirl07, 2Be1, Michy & GiJoe07- I hope you have an absolutely amazing day tomorrow!!! we've all waited a long time for this, and even if everything doesn't go perfect just enjoy spending the day with your new husband!!! and to my fellow Hawaii Honeymooners.......maybe I'll find you in Maui or something!!! Have fun!!!

I'm so sorry if I left anyone out, but I am suffering from severe 'bride brain' lately, so I do apologize!!! We leave for the HM on Monday morning, so I'm sure I'll be back on LIW by Sunday!!!

YAY!!!!! I'm off to become a wifey!!!!

I had a really short one:

Been home since Friday and not on much so while I have a few minutes I just wanted to say thank you all for your help and support! I can't believe our wedding is Saturday...the day I have dreamed about since I was a little girl. COngrats to all this (and next) weekends' brides. I'll post at the end of the month when we return to Virginia after our honeymoon in Virgin Gorda!


I also posted before we left DC to head to NY!

Re: For Fun: Copy and Paste your Goodbye Post!

wow mine was a freaking NOVEL. i think i did such a long one cause i was one of the earlier 07 girls -- and it just felt to surreal having my 'goodbye' and i wanted it to be good!



My Goodbye!

Yes, that's right ladies, hold back the tears...cause your favorite 07'er is getting married!!!!!!!! Weep not, for I will continue to post long after I am married, for I hath no life. hehe I'm posting this 4 days b4 the big day, cause it's my last day of work and I don't know if I'll be on too much between now and then, so I wanted to get my long winded goodbye done!

This is so surreal....typing this to you all. For the longest time I never thought this day would come, and now that it's fast approaching, I kind of wish I had more time! For 2 loooong years, Pete and I have been planning on this day, and I just know that even though it will go by at lightning speed, it will be worth the wait, cause on Sunday, I will be marrying the most wonderful man I could ever have asked for. (And of course, he's pretty damn lucky too!)

First and foremost, I wish to thank Ron, Liz, Kim and the entire staff at LIW for creating this website. I just can not say how much this place has helped me in the process of planning my wedding. Originally I had different vendors before I came here, and ultimately I wound up cancelling some, when I found better ones thru the many recommendations this site offers. Don't worry, I'll still come on here to make you all laugh, cause I know I've given you all many many chuckles. (JOE MOMMA & JOE DADDY IS GETTING MARRIED!)

Now, I just HAVE to give the biggest shout out to all my 2007 brides! Nothing against any of the other boards, but I really loved the '07 board more than anything else. Not just because it's full of fellow 07 brides, but because we just clicked so well together. I've made some great friends on here, and I know I'll be hanging out with these girls waaay past when their weddings happen!

Thank you so much to all these ladies in particular, our little 'crew'; the countless pages of FM's we've all shared and laughed over so many things, have helped me get thru the hard times. I wanted to say a little something to those of you, who are close to my heart:

Heather (soontobemrsvpt) - I knew you before I knew LIW, you are my south shore ghetto hood rat! I'll never forget the first time we met, and you were next to me at D&B, turning red from laughing so damn hard at my craziness. I hope to make you laugh for years to come! Stay up biotch, west siiiiiiide! A---Veeeeee!

Danielle (MrsDaniRella) - Somehow we just become friends on here, against the odds. I'm glad I can be your first token spanish friend, EVER! I love that our conversations almost always include the term C U Next Tuesday, cause we can always find someone we dislike to call them that. haha!

Nina (duh!) - MUÑECA!!!!! I'm so happy that we were able to meet and hang out that one time at the Bridal Extravaganza and after-party. Your FMs have always brought a smile to my face, and I know that if you were in NY, we'd be chilling and cooking up some arroz con gandules, pernil, and churrasco! You are my mamita.

Penny (lilqtpie)- PIMP MY WEDDING!!!!!!! haha! We hit it off from the moment we met at Nina's GTG (that of course she couldn't make it to!) You and Angelo are perfect for each other, and I can't wait to see all the wonderful pics from your pimped out wedding! So glad I got to meet you and chill out together, cause we've had some hilarious times. On my wedding day, if anything goes wrong, I think I'm gonna bring along a picture of Angelo giving the finger with the caption, 'Go f*** yourself!'

Nicole (ShortyMcBride) - 'Okay, now pee on the fire hydrant!' That was so damn hilarious at Danielle's xmas party. You have made me laugh on MORE than one occasion and I hope you make me laugh even more after I'm an old married lady! Keep posting like it's going out of style you posting whore!

Kamille (Kam0813) - You are my porno pal and perverted pussycat. Flying penii next month? 'nuff said!

Some honorable mentions, these are also some of my fav 07 brides, we have FM'd, gossipped, swapped ideas, and I love ya biitches for it!
Athee07, melbalalala, Jess5790, D's Girl, ChrissyandVinny, tonimike, brittny817.

To all my February brides, I am the last of us -- now we pass the torch onto the March 2007 gals!

Lastly, I must say that thru all this planning and such, if I can pass on one piece of advice, just remember ladies....it's NOT about the aisle runners, petal cones, plasma screen displays, tiaras, etc. So don't sweat the small stuff, cause in the end it won't matter if the florist is late or didn't put 24 roses in the CP's only 22, or if there's a tiny miniscule spot on your dress that NO ONE will notice but you. When I marry on Sunday, I am going to forget everything else, look into Pete's eyes and say 'I do!' and not even if Jesus himself tried to steal my thunder by his 2nd coming....I wouldn't fret. (I might throw down with him though)

Anyone who wants to crash my ceremony, it's at 11:15 a.m. at Watermill Caterers in Smithtown. There are some LIW brides attending the wedding itself, but hey, I wouldn't mind more faces seeing us getting hitched!!!!

I swear for a while there, it felt like this time would never come. Once you hit those DDs though, time FLIES!!! I can't believe it!!!

So before I head out to LI tonite from my sisters in NJ and things start getting crazy (crazier i should say) I wanted to come on and thank all of my LIW ladies for your support, unique ideas, and thoughtful input throughout this whole planning process. This site and all of you girls have been a TREMENDOUS help for me as I planned my LI wedding from PA. It really did make the process run so much more smoothly than it ever would have otherwise. (Special thx to my hall-twin 08er Bonnie for introducing me to LIW!)

I want to wish my fellow 8/10-8/12 brides a truly JOYOUS & BLESSED wedding day!!!

I'm getting so nervous. I always do with events like this, and to think the spotlight will partly be on me... I just keep reminding myself to focus on my FH and what the day is really about. I think that is all that is keeping me from feeling more nervous and nauseaus than I am. Can't wait to marry him!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta run and tie up all of the loose ends. Holy cr@p, if you could see how many boxes we have in our cars!!!!!!!! Ill be back soon to share wedding & HM pics, and of course to check on the future 07 brides.

Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!

PS- I havent looked at the weather report yet, too scared to. But if you have and it looks herendous, pls say some prayers for a miraculous sunny day!!!!!!!!!

She was there for me when I started dating my FH in 1999 when I was 17- I was scared sh!tless of boys and she was the first to tease me & make me realize that it's just a d!ck.... She's been there for me throughout college, through the good times & bad times with our FHs, she's held buckets for me to puke in at IHOP, she made me get on skis for the first time, she really has brightened my life & eased my nerves during stressful times. And now, she has driven distances for me to see reception halls, to check out favors, to PICK UP 1400 boxes of favors, to WRAP the 1400 favors, to make 3457 programs by hand, to listen to me p!ss & moan about everything under the sun, the list goes on FOREVER... she really has been right by my side through absolutely every step of this, almost as much as FH has been! She has a heart of gold, and did everything and anything she could for me to make my life that much simpler. And then theres the amazing gifts she's given us- a bottle of Cristal, a wine refrigerator, a Lladro, a patio set, a BBQ- these are only SOME of the million gifts she's given us. Jess, you have worked SO HARD for this and I can not begin to thank you enough from the bottom of my heart. I am so blessed to have you here by my side. I look forward to eternal years with you and Buckley, raising [or beating] our children together and growing so old we have to clean each others bed pans. THANK YOU for being you. I can NOT wait to get back from my HM so we can REALLY get cracking on your upcoming wedding. I look forward to spending more of these restless days and nights with you.. You're going to be a beautiful bride & more importantly- an amazing wife.

I also thank my other best friends who are in my wedding party- Dayna, Dana & Veronica who also have been there for me through thick & thin for many many years. And to my OTHER best friends who are taking part in my wedding- Cynthia aka Chachi296, Karen & Michelle. I am so happy that you are all sharing in my joy & excitement and being there for one of the most important days of my life. Cynthia- I also can NOT wait for your wedding day- another one bites the dust You are going to make a drop dead gorgeous bride & I hope you know I'm here to help you with ANYTHING as well! Many thanks to Melissa AKA MrsBrags7706 who is off celebrating her 1 year anniversary- I feel so blessed that we could share all these exciting moments together & that I had you there to ask wedding related questions to all day long
to many many more beautiful memories together.

And LIW girls- thank you for inspiring me to make the absolute most of my buck for my wedding day. I got great ideas from this site, learned so many things about weddings that I never knew, and cured ALOT of boredom at work I met so many great girls on here I can not begin to list them all.. I am sad to leave you all for the rest of July.

To my date twin Dale AKA Dalito322 & any other 7.13.07er out there- Good luck & God bless!
Same to the 7.14ers & 7.15ers:

I also would especially like to thank all the past brides on here for the beautiful reviews. You really made this process that much easier on us!

Finally I'd like to thank my FH Dan for being so involved in this process. It shows that you truly do want this day to happen, and you're not just trying to please me I can't believe that after 8 1/2 years of growing into adults together, we're becoming husband & wife. I look forward to a very very long, happy life together and eternally being wed. In the end, it's ME & YOU.

Cute Idea!!

OK Ladies! This is it! With 2 days to go it's time to say goodbye and thank you so much to all of you!


Tara (gettinhutched) convinced me to join after my FH and I got engaged last July and I 'm so glad I did! Thank you Tara for convincing me to join, for being such an incredible friend the last 9(!!) years and for sharing our special day with us! I'm so looking forward to seeing you on Saturday. Can you believe we are both going to be married ladies in 2007? What would we have thought of that in 1998!?

Another special thank you to Amy (Futuremrs) For all her help and suggestions after my original reception site closed down 3 months before the wedding! Without you Amy I would probably be getting married somewhere hideous! Thank you for all your advice and happy supportive emails! You are a treasure!


To all my date twins..It's going to be an amazing day! It's finally our weekend! Have an amazing time and enjoy your honeymoons

Thank you all: For the laughs on a bad Monday, to so many wonderful suggestions. You are FABULOUS and I can't wait to see the pics and here about all your amazing weddings!

I'm off to become a wife! I'll try to post pics as soon as I can!!

Wow! Most of you had really long ones!

I guess mine was short and sweet. At the time, I don't think I really comprehended that I was writing my goodbye post!

I seriously can not believe how fast a year and a half went. I just wanted to thank all of you for all of your DIY ideas and vendor recommendations. I really do not know how I would have planned a wedding otherwise.

Good luck to all the other weekend brides.
