My brother and his girlfriend are planning to get engaged sometime toward the beginning of the next year. It's a little nerve wracking because she's been hyper excited and has been planning in her head for awhile. CAlling dibs on a couple things (well intentioned and with a jovial tone). Nick and I have been what-iffing and planning the hypothetical wedding too... But still, I don't really have a lot of idea of what to do. I don't know how many people to guess for a head count, how much the details will cost...
And I'm thinking that it's a good thing that my brother's girlfriend and I have very different tastes, otherwise it'd be a race. She wants a September wedding. Which, my fiance is a farmer. I would LOVE a September wedding too... great light, the sun is not so harsh. I'd kinda like autumn colors. If it works, that's what I'm picking, because I have a ring on my hand. :D But I'm pretty sure stuff is getting harvested around then.
But, his folks are meeting my mom for the first time this weekend. I imagine that the subject just might come up in conversation. :D My brother's girlfriend pointed me to theknot.com It seems like a really helpful site. So, that's a good thing. She and I could potentially go through this process and be able to counsel each other. My grandpa thought we should have a double ring ceremony. Maybe I have some bridezilla tendencies.... I want the day to be OURS and reflect the personalities of my groom and I. Not, my groom, my brother, his bride and I.
Alright, I'll stop rambling. Thanks again for your well wishes!!
Maybe I need to revisit the 2007 goals thread! ;-)

Your ring is GORGEOUS!!! Congratulations, again!!! :D

What a beautiful ring! Many wishes for a long and happy life of passion and friendship!
I heartily recommend pre-marital counseling. My husband and I discussed things I never would have thought about because of our counseling sessions. It definitely helped us to set some goals for ourselves and for us as a couple, and to agree on some mutually-decided-upon rules to set realistic expectations.
