offbalance Wedding Date: September 17, 2011 (provided all the different stars, like the caterer star and the photographer star, align)
Bride/Groom/Other (please specify): Bride.
Age: 30.
City/State/Country you live in: confusion Er, Brooklyn, NY
City/State/Country you're getting married in (if different): Hopefully bliss. Upstate, NY. Near Poughkeepsie. At the country home of my husband-elect's parents.
Your song/First Dance song: Our "song" is probably "The Way I Am" by Ingrid Michaelson. Not up to first dance yet, that's probably my down-the-aisle number.

Formality: Not very.
Theme (if you have one): It's going to be wedding themed! We're so daring that way.
Number of guests: More than 100. Hopefully not too many more, but that's how it goes.
How'd you meet your fiance?: We sat next to each other at a play. A mutual friend claims she had planned to introduce us, but general admission seating did the work for her.
How long have you been together?: Almost 2 years.
Do you have a personal wedding website?: Not yet.
Have you read the community rules before posting this survey? Yes indeed.
Anything else you'd like to tell us?:
I'm more Offbeat Bride.com or Indiebride.com than theKnot.com. I'm not a princess, unless you mean more like Leia, Zelda, or Xena than Disney. I have a horrible problem with getting the giggles during vows, which is usually why I hide in a back row. I have no idea what I'm going to do when my time comes, other than hiring an ordained stand-up comic. I'm here to get advice, and hopefully have a group to squee at when my friends start getting glassy-eyed when I obsess about cakes or caterers for the 900th time. And, I've been loving reading about everyone else's progress.
