I've officially been a bride-to-be for 7 months. But, I'll be honest - I've been planning my wedding for quite some time before then.
I wasn't ever one of those little girls who ran around with a make-shift veil or played "wedding" growing up. In fact, I wasn't remotely interested in boys into well into high school. That's not to say I wasn't a girly girl. Oh, I was.
I didn't get the wedding "bug" until my mid-twenties. I was in a relationship that was headed in the direction of marriage. During this time, I began to buy wedding magazines and was soon after hopelessly hooked... The blogs, vendor research, piles and piles of idea clippings began to accumulate. But then that relationship ended, and my wedding research went on hiatus.
Time passed and I met Mr. Seashell. After dating a few short months (er, weeks) the wedding bug had returned. (I'd dated several people between my almost-was fiancee and my now-is fiancee, but he absolutely fell into the category of "when you know, you know".) I kept it quiet, but I started buying wedding magazines again, researching vendors, looking at blogs, and locating the wedding website of every engaged friend I could find and daydreaming away. I couldn't get enough. It almost feels that I've been planning our wedding since the day we met.
When you met your fiancee did you just "know"? Or was it more of a process?
