Intro!

Miss Gringa - My family is from New England, but I was raised in the South.  What do those two areas have in common?  Well, not much besides argyle and brunch (both of which I LOVE, by the way).  I'm a graduate student, though not for much longer!  I like Disney, board games, traveling, cooking, the Florida Gators, eBaying, anything that has to do with the ocean, and sarcasm.





Señor Groom is a first generation American.  His parents moved from Cuba to New Jersey in the 1980s.  Unfortunately, because of this, Sr. Groom is a Yankees fan.  Sr. Groom attended the University of Central Florida for undergrad and is a die-hard Knights fan.  He is now in the process of finishing up law school.  He enjoys golf, video games, being outside, going to the movies, and eating Miss Gringa's cooking.

We met in Florida, migrated to Georgia for school, and plan to start our lives together here in Atlanta.  We're huge baseball fans (more about how this is influencing our wedding later) and we're parents to a 4-year-old dog, Miss Corgi.  Miss Corgi has a huge Napoleonic complex.  She is incredibly mischievous, mostly in situations involving food.  She enjoys destroying stuffed animals, chasing her tennis ball, snuggling on the couch, and eating popcorn.

We got engaged on August 29, 2009 and we're getting married on April 2, 2011.  I love having a long engagement and I have thoroughly enjoyed the planning process so far!  I'm excited to share with you lots of lovely inspiration, fun ideas, creative DIY projects, and of course, entertaining stories about our wedding planning adventures.  Happy reading!
