The best humorists couldn't come up with this stuff: Fillerup-Standing. Kumon-Topomi. And, my personal fave, Moore-Bacon.
If you have
an engagement in your future, lead your boyfriend to
Brilliant Earth. Based in San Francisco, the company grew out of a real marriage proposal. After founder Beth Gerstein's fiancé couldn't find a source for conflict-free diamonds, the couple took matters into their own hands.
Bachelor and bachelorette parties are so odd to me. Some of them seem to undermine the symbolism of the romantic gesture of getting married. Like, how does having a stripper grind on you during a lap dance signify that you're ready to walk down the aisle with your sweetie?

To make all the members of your new and improved pack feel welcome, include them in on your wedding shower festivities.
I'm not married, or engaged, but the idea of creating a wedding registry totally excites me — dancing around a store (ahem,
27 dresses) with a barcode scanner, scanning to your hearts desire?! Good times indeed (yes, I'm delusional!). Scratch that thought for just a sec, and let's get back to basics and practicality — online wedding registries.
