Ohio gals...come on in!

[~Sara~]

Any other Ohio girls out there?

[Katnye]

I'm here!

[~Sara~]

:hehe: I think we might be the only ones....we can have our own thread :lol2:

[Katnye]

Sweet!

It could get rowdy in here! :giggle:

[BrightEyes]

:wiggle: I is one!


... it will still get rowdy though.

[~Sara~]

Hi Mollie!! :)

We're up to 3 Ohio brides! Wahoo! :lol2:

[Katnye]

Hi Mollie! :)

[BrightEyes]

ellllooooooo :)

[Katnye]

Just dusting off the good ol' Ohio gals thread! :heee:

[KathyandJer]

*dusting off the thread again*

I'm not an Ohio gal yet...but I'll be an Ohio gal/bride in August! :kimgrill: Am I allowed to come and get rowdy?

And where is QueenElizabeth - shouldn't she be here too?

[~Sara~]

Hey Kathy! Of couse you can get rowdy :) This thread needs some life in it!

Yes, Beth should get her butt over into this thread....

[bmhetz2]

Hey ladies! I will join in...I am not getting married in Ohio, but have lived here for about a year and a half.

[Mrs.H]

I'm an Ohio bride/wife too! Let the rowdiness begin.

[Summer_House]

Me too!

[Kimberly]

I'm an Ohio bride! It's about time this thread came to life again!

[KathyandJer]

Awwww.... I :heart: Ohio and can't wait to move there :sappy:

[QueenElizabeth22]

Hey I am here! I wandered in here trying to find threads that have those dang eggs in them!

WOO HOOO for Ohio! :) It is a great state...especially when the weather is nice like it has been the past two days! :)

[Kimberly]

Kathy, not much longer till you move here right?!

Thought I would bump this up and ask if anyone in here has ever been to the bridal district in Cincinnati? That is where I ended up finding my dress and my bridesmaids dresses. It is a great place for all things wedding!

[~Sara~]

Yay for action in the Ohio thread!

I went to Bridal and Formal with Karen (katnye) when she bought her wedding dress and our BM dresses. Talk about an overwhelming place! Dresses everywhere! It was fabulous :woo:

[Katnye]

I thought I heard my name...:hehe:

Like Sara said, I got my dress and bridesmaids dresses at Bridal & Formal in the wedding district. We didn't use any of the other vendors around the area because we already had some in mind. Talk about a one-stop-shop for any bride--it's fantastic!

How was your experience there? Mine was wonderful! I had been there before with my sister, so I knew they had an enormous amount of dresses. So, beforehand, I searched their website and figured out some designers and styles that I liked. It was very helpful!

Lets see pictures of your dress and your BM dresses!

HOPEFULLY not much longer till I move. Technically after the wedding, I can legally stay in the US...but until my work visa comes through I can't work. As much as I would love to be a Stay-at-Home-Wife, that's just not feasible! Immigration can be updated from Fiance status to Married status after the wedding and hopefully that will speed things up a little :crossfing:

Bridal district? :huh: Sounds like a wonderful place :yes:

[Kimberly]

I too got my dress at bridal and formal as well as the bridesmaid dresses! I will post pictures soon. My dress has *still* not came in though. There was a problem with it and it should be here by July, and because of this, they are taking 15% off of my purchase. The last time we went though I did take pictures of my dress when my girls got theirs, and I have pictures of them in the dress they decided on. :) (It turned out not to be what they had originally picked)

My veil however has came in, and I will have to post photos of that too!

Kathy, I very much hope that your process gets speeded up. Not that this is the same at all, but I know that things are very backed up here in the states if you want a passport. Many people have had to miss trips because they have not gotten theirs in time! Eek how horrible that would be?!

[Katnye]

Bridal district? :huh: Sounds like a wonderful place :yes:

The bridal district is in Reading (a part of Cincinnati). There is an entire street devoted to all things wedding. It's wonderful! Here's a link to Bridal and Formal...the MASSIVE dress store we were talking about:

Thank you :) I like having everything in order, but I think I'm getting a little more used to being at the mercy of government agencies :mope:

As for the passports, they're actually allowing people to fly now as long as they have PROOF that they've submitted all the information necessary, because it's taking so long to get a passport!

Karen - sounds like a wonderful place - I don't dare go near there now or I'll be changing everything at the last minute :giggle:

[~Sherry~]

I am an Ohio bride! :woo: for us!!

[KathyandJer]

:hiya: Sherry!

[~Sherry~]

Hey Kathy! My parents are thinking about moving closer to Marion in a year because my mom works over there at the prisons. So maybe one day we'll have to visit or go to lunch.

[Kristina_and_Aj]

so technically im not an ohio girl, but im just across the river! and i dont think there are any other kentucky girls here. can i join you guys?????:bumitch:

and i also got my dress for my first wedding from bridal and formal. they are awesome up there. there was another little shop down the street where i got the bm dresses and i cant remember the name of it now, but the owner was fabulous! i had to have surgery a couple weeks before the wedding and she actually called me at home after my surgery to see how i was feeling. i highly recommend that area to anyone!

[KathyandJer]

Sherry - awesome - we've been talking in Kristina's journal about an Ohio Invasion - MLW style :D

Kristina - if you shop in Ohio, then that counts :giggle: And well, you can pretty much SEE Ohio! (Didn't matter anyways, these girls are nice enough to let me join in and I'm not even in the US yet :thumbsup:)

[Kristina_and_Aj]

thats exactly right kathy! aj works in ohio also!

i think it would be super fun to have an ohio get together one day!

[KathyandJer]

Me too :yes:

[JerAndKathy]

Hell, no necessarily an Ohio get together, but just a get together IN Ohio. :D There's a difference. Hehe

[~Sara~]

[Katnye]

I am! I am!

[KathyandJer]

[~Sherry~]
