If you could look into the future, what would life be like for you and FH? How many kids, where are you living, are you working, etc? What are your plans?
FH and I planned on having kids right away (depends on this stupid economy), and he wants to help me pursue my dream of owning my own boutique. FH wants to live in Massapequa, and is currently looking for a split (under 4). I asked him if I could get an infinite FX after the wedding and he said we will have to see because we might be riding our bicycles around for a while ( please don't let us be in debt!).
And FH wanted me to stay home and raise our kids, which is cool, I could use a break from the 9-5. Instead I will be on call 24/7 with little FH's running around, screaming that they want food.
Lord knows whats really in store for us, but I am sure that it be one hell of a ride. Or I might hurt him first, who knows

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
Let's see. I'll be going back to school for my PhD a few months after the wedding. So, no babies while I'm in school. Just can't do that. It'll probably be about 5+ years before we start thinking about kids. I'm only 24 now and never saw myself having kids until my 30s.
I love to travel so definitely want to do alot of that, and FH would like to buy a house. When we do have children, I will NOT be staying home, however, FH might be a stay-at-home dad. I told him he can as long as I am making enough to keep us comfortable. So, that's his new dream = early retirement. He has no idea what he's in for!

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
After the wedding our 1st goal is buying a home of course! Then FH said that he will buy me a teacup yorkie because I want one ooh soo bad!! We also plan on buying a nice car, we both have trucks right now so we want a really nice car that we could use on the weekends or whatever. Then we plan on just enjoying our married lives together for a bit, I'll just be turning 25 when I get married and FH will just be turning 26 so we want to wait about a year to a year and a half to have kids. We want 4 kids but we'll see how everything goes! I plan on still working, I'm a nurse and really enjoy my job, I think that if I stay at home and didn't work I would go crazy plus I only work 3 nights per week because we do 12 hour shifts so I might go down to 2 days after the kids but I def. plan on still working.
We shall see what happens hopefully everything will be a smooth process and work out as planned!!!! Can't wait!!!!

FH has 2 houses one in Bayside and one in Greenport . We are planning on living in the Bayside for a few years and then moving out to Greenport all year round. No kids are in our future so we are planning on alot of traveling also.

After the wedding we would like to move into a two bedroom apartment so we have space for all our stuff. We want to wait about a year and keep saving for a house. Then once we find a house we want to have a baby. We both want one right away, but now is not the time. We need to have a house first!

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
Ideally i'd like to have a house, but if we find that we dont have enough money between the two of us for a decent down payment by next year then we will just rent. I just started taking grad classes for my MBA and want to finish that first before having kids so i figure it will be at least 2 years after we are married before we start trying. I am not yet sure if i will stay home with my kids, it depends on how much day care costs and if its worth it for me to still go to work at that time, but i like the idea that if i have my MBA i will have an advantage when im ready to go back to work (if i have to stay home w/ the kids). FH wants 2 boys.. i want at least 1 girl!

Enjoying eachother!!!!! We also would like to save for a house. That may take a while since FH and I are paying for our own wedding but we will do it!! Then in 3-4 years I would like to start a family. I would love to be a stay at home mom because I want to raise my own children.
I can't wait!!!!!

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
We plan on staying in our apt in Bayside for around 3 years at least and working on paying off student loans before attempting to buy a house... but we might keep renting since we love it here and buy a small house upstate as like a weekend place when we have kids. I want like 3-4 kids and I want to be a young mom but don't want to have them when we're struggling (paging octo-mom) and it will take me a while of trying before having kids so we will see!

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
Not much will change. We already own a house...and FH has two kids...and neither of us want more. I think we'll just enjoy all the money we have after the wedding and travel. Eventually we will make some changes to the house. Most of it is brand new...but I hate the kitchen...so that's one of my priorties...even though it's new and i dont cook..i want it to suit my style.

After the wedding FH and I plan to just adjust to the married life.
He's planning on moving up in the ranks in his career and I have a lot going on with my career. We want to work on our foundation more, and enjoy each other to ourselves before we have kids.
My mom would love to be a stay at home grandmother {in her own home of course}, lol, so she is working some things out in the meantime as well!

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
I will be a legal guardian of one of my student soon so after we get married I would like to move into a bigger town house/condo. I also want to get into a district. I want to have a little more time off so that we can adopt kids (I can't have kids ). I also want to buy a new car!!!

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
We aren't really sure what we will do as far as where we will be living yet. Hopefully we will buy a house up here in Westchester soon after the wedding. I want to wait a while before we have kids (at least 4 years) so that we can travel and just enjoy being married. I don't think I will be a stay at home mom though. I worked really hard to get my CPA and in the end will wind up going back to work.

Re: QOTD: What are your plans for after the big I-DO?
Well FH already has a condo, so we are set on where to live. We are definitely going to wait a bit to have kids. Though we both want them, we know that we are both really young and want to enjoy just being married for a while. I would love to go back to school (I'm a dork!). I have a masters in English Ed, but would love to get one in English or Children's Lit. FH is finishing up his supervision masters, so he's going to take a break and we will just relax and not save money for a bit!
