So You're EnGAYged, a LGBT wedding blog

Once Upon A Time…

I moved to Boston.  I was a year out of college and trying to decide where my life was going.  So I moved, from Texas to Massachusetts.   I had no job, no apartment, and didn’t know anyone.   I had an apartment in a week, a job in six, and ten weeks after I moved to Boston, Jen and I had our first date.  We had both been cast in a play at the end of August (I’m a big theatre geek, have I mentioned that yet?).  After six weeks of rehearsal I finally got up the nerve to ask her out and on October 10^th we went on or first date.  One year and six months later Jen proposed, we exchanged rings and now we’re getting married!!

I’ll tell you the proposal story someday, but for now let me tell you about us.  I grew up outside of Los Angeles, Jen grew up outside of New York City.  My parents are very conservative, Jen’s are very liberal.  I went to college in Texas, Jen went to college in Pennsylvania.  I’m an administrative assistant, and Jen is on staff at a collegiate library.

Our wedding is planned for Memorial day weekend.  We are 91 days out from our wedding.  All the major stuff is done (you know, location, caterer, attire).  However, there are still so many things that have to be done over the next three months (florist, rings, center pieces, etc.).  I cannot wait to marry this amazing woman!And I am looking forward to sharing this journey with you.
