And came back with a ring....um
I had no intention of EVERY marrying HIM. I said no. Broke his heart."

Do it Yourself Rings…
My husband and I made both our engagement rings and our wedding rings. For us this made sense given that we are both crafty and pretty much knew exactly what we wanted. It also saved us quite a lot of money!Norman is a musician, but over the last 7 or 8 years has gotten into designing and fabricating really cool multi-layered plexi-glass clocks that he calls clockthings. They are inspired by different things, but mostly music, movies and Bollywood. He's made many over the...

Future Husbands: BEWARE!
October 10, 2007Wow. As brides to be, sometimes we think we have ALL the problems. But after watching this hilarious video from France's sketch comedy show "We're Geniuses," our issues are nothing compared to the men in our lives about to marry us. At least, that is what these men would like you to believe. This is pretty harsh, but very very funny. I am going to have to go ask my husband if this is how HE views marriage, because now I am paranoid. Watch this video entitled, "Scared Straight Off Marriage," and then...

I Have a Proposal for You ...
November 1, 2007The Proposal. It seems like such a formal word for something that is so personal, doesn't it? A Proposal sounds like some sort of business transaction between two corporatations, rather than the beginning of a lifelong commitment to a new life together.
There are so many "stereotypical" proposals that we always hear about. The classic baseball game proposal where the question is posted on the giant screen for all the crowd to see. To me; if I were a guy, that would be way too stressful. How can you...

The Questions Never End ...
November 8, 2007The annoying questions that other people ask you throughout your adult life are, well... annoying. Once you reach, say, the age of 23 or so (or younger if you don't attend college) people start with the annoying questions about your life plans. The questions usually run in stages; according to the different stages of your life. We have all heard them, and I think women get them a lot more than men do. But men, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
QUESTION #1: So, when are you getting married?
