Ask Leanna anything

[action]

I don't think I saw one of these (how is this possible?!)

 

What is your favourite TV show?

 

Favourite band?

 

Do you fancy any famous people?

 

Did you end up getting any sleep last night? Lol

[Trish]

Do you like your job?

 

What is your favorite dinner?

[Leanna]

Haha, I started one, but I think it got kind of lost. :)

1. Supernatural. I have been watching that show since 2006ish, I think. Some seasons have been better than others. I'm liking this season so far, so that's promising!

 

2. Oh goodness. Um.. I listen to a lot of Queen, so I'd say Queen. 

 

3. Jeffrey Dean Morgan! He's 20+ years older than me, but I still find him really attractive. 

 

Oh, and David Tennant. Even though he kind of resembles a rodent. I'm weird that way.

 

4. I did! Lol, not a whole lot though. I fell asleep around 4:45 and woke up at 10.

 

Do you like your job?

 

What is your favorite dinner?

 

1. I'm actually unemployed at the moment. I took a sick leave from work in December and never returned. I ended up quitting in February. I'm starting school full-time tomorrow and depending on my course load, I may try to get a part-time job. 

 

2. Pretty much anything with a lot of cheese. I LOVE homemade macaroni and cheese.

How long have you been with your fiancé?

 

Have you picked your wedding dress yet?

[Leanna]

How long have you been with your fiancé?

 

Have you picked your wedding dress yet?

1. We've been together since October 2011. :)

 

2. I haven't picked a dress yet, but I've been trying some on. I know you probably don't care about dresses much, but I fell in love with an all-lace one. It's a bit pricey, but I may go for it if I can find the funds. 

[action]

I'm sure if you found the one you love, you will find a way to get it :)

 

Where do you want to go on your honeymoon?

[action]

And the same to you - ever spent more than $100 on a bottle of booze?!?!

[Paul723]

Don't be subtle with your soon to be husband. That's not a question, just my advice. My wife would say to me, "I like roses." I would file this interesting fact away for future reference. What she though she was saying (and I was unable to extrapolate) was, "I like roses and you should buy me some and have them delivered to my office so the other women can see them." See how subtle the difference is?

We haven't decided, but I would love to go to Montreal. I've never been there and I hear it's beautiful.

I believe Steve has, but not I! I have bought bottles of booze and spent over $100, but never a bottle for 100+.

Good advice. Thank you. :)

LOL, good job!!  It would be so much easier I suppose if we women just made it completely clear, but what would there be in that?

[Jenny]

Leanna, I think you should post a pic of the one you like.  :)  I love wedding dresses.  I love weddings!!

 

Do you have any pets?

[Jenny]

What's your favorite place to be? 

[Leanna]

Leanna, I think you should post a pic of the one you like.  :)  I love wedding dresses.  I love weddings!!

 

Do you have any pets?

 

I'll post a dress that looks like the one I love. I went to a local bridal boutique and I wasn't able to find a picture of the dress online.

 

No pets. I'm hoping to adopt soon though. I really want a cat.

 

[Leanna]

What's your favorite place to be? 

 

Oh wow, that's a tough one. Either in my bed or at the library, haha. 

 

Used to be my mom's place, but the house is just depressing now. 

[Leanna]

I tried on this one too, but they couldn't order it in my size. If I wanted the dress, I would have had to get an insert in the back and it would have been another $500 for just that alteration.

 

[Jenny]

I love the first one better anyway!  Very elegant, timeless look.  It's gorgeous!  You're going to be a beautiful bride no matter what dress you wear.  Are you having a indoor or outdoor wedding?  How formal is it?

Getting tired of my questions yet? lol

[Leanna]

Lol, not at all. I like the questions. :)

 

Indoor wedding. It will be March and will be pretty cold out still, probably with snow.

 

We're having a church ceremony and the reception will be at a sailing club. We're thinking buffet, so not too formal. :) 

 

Here is me with the second dress on. Don't mind the bra straps. 

 

[Jenny]

That does look lovely!   I had a buffet at my wedding as well & I actually prefer them :)   Sailing club sounds fancy to me!  So exciting!  Try to enjoy this time as much as you can.  It's such a special time in your life. :)

[Leanna]

I'm definitely going to try. :) People keep "suggesting" things, but I have just been ignoring most of them. My soon-to-be mother-in-law is annoying that way.

 

Here's a picture of the hall we're looking at renting:

I like that it says Pirate Jenny on the boat, lol.

Leanna I'll tell you a secret... Don't tell anyone!

 

We didn't have a lot of money to spend on our wedding, and Tasha absolutely had her heart set on a particular dress. Not only could they not do it (or more likely would not do it) in her size, it also cost about half of the wedding budget. So we went to eBay and she found someone who made any dress for a fraction of the price. I think in total she got the exact dress she wanted on the exact size from overseas for about £100... The one in the shop was £2500. And I tell you they were IDENTICAL ;)

 

Not saying you should do this, I'm just saying that if they take the Mickey in the bridal shops, there are alternatives :)

 

Btw I like the dress in this picture :)

[Jenny]

That's my boat!  I am a pirate!!  :):)  Wait till I tell the hubs!

 

Gorgeous!  Looks like beautiful views out the windows too. 

 

That's right, you do what you want because it's your wedding!  Mother in laws can be a challenge that way for sure.  It's your special day and should be your way.  Heck, I didn't even let my husband have much of a say in the wedding particulars!

That's a really awesome tip Action. Thank you. :) I'm so worried about ordering online, but I may have to. I haven't been having much luck in stores and I really don't want to spend a fortune on a dress I'll (hopefully) only wear once.

I think it's going to be a beautiful place to hold a wedding AND it's way cheaper than other places I've looked at. For the entire day, it's $825 to rent the entire room upstairs. That's from 7 a.m. to 1 a.m., I think. The deposit is only $100. I'm just waiting for a quote for the catering to make my decision, but I'm pretty sure we're going to go for that venue if the food isn't too overly priced.

 

Lol, I'm the same way. Steve's okay not having much of a say though. He's not really a planning type of guy.

[action]

Well at least now you know someone who ordered online and it turned out well. I will try to find a picture tomorrow :)
