			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many TV shows end their seasons with a wedding and that’s just how the season ended on <em>Mike &amp; Molly</em>.  The finale featured a series of wedding day disasters; it started with a devastating hair salon experience, went on to the bride’s limo being towed and concluded with the bride and maid-of-honor getting a ride to the church by an eco-friendly, hippie, drug dealer.  There was more mayhem in between things, but you get the picture. It was every bride’s worst nightmare come true.  You really felt sorry for her but you had to laugh!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cbs.com/shows/mike_and_molly/"><img title="mike-molly-wedding" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7598" src="http://weddingrumors.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/mike-molly-wedding.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="700" height="311" /></a></p>
<p>Billy Gardell and Melissa McCarthy play Mike and Molly who are both hysterical.  It’s especially funny to watch them interact with the crazy cast of supporting characters assembled on the show.  If you haven’t seen it, try an episode.  It’s pretty funny.</p>
<p>If you saw “<a href="http://www.cbs.com/shows/mike_and_molly/">The Wedding</a>” episode, what did you think?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently saw a commercial for a new movie that looks pretty good.  It has a producer with a string of hits, a great cast, and a premise that some people can actually relate to.  If you’ve been engaged for a while, then you REALLY can relate to the premise. </p>
<p>The film is called “The Five-Year Engagement” and it stars Jason Segal, Emily Blunt, Chris Pratt, and one of favorite funny girls, Mindy Kaling.  The film tracks a couple’s engagement which ends up becoming longer and longer as they adjust to the changing circumstances of their lives.  This film is produced by Judd Apatow, who also produced “Bridesmaids.”  It looks less raunchy than “Bridesmaids” but just as humorous.</p>
<p>I’ll be checking it out when it hits theaters on April 27<sup>th</sup>, how about you?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you seen the car commercial where a couple is driving around and the guy is desperately trying to get his girlfriend to see his airplane banner proposal?  It reminds me of a recently engaged friend, Jackie, whose fiancé, Josh, did one even better.</p>
<p>While on their deck, celebrating the one year anniversary of moving into their house, a plane flies by with a romantic proposal message.  Jackie accepts and then a helicopter begins to get closer, landing in the grassy area in their backyard.   A surprised Jackie can’t believe her eyes when the copter picks them up for a fabulous night in New York City to celebrate.  How romantic is that!</p>
<p>Josh even videotaped his thoughts about the proposal and the night’s events as they unfolded for YouTube making certain it’s a proposal they’ll never forget. Congratulations guys!</p>
<p>Anyone have a unique proposal story to share?</p>
<p><a href="http://weddingrumors.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/plane-banner.jpg"><img src="http://weddingrumors.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/plane-banner.jpg" alt="" title="plane-banner" width="400" height="300" border="0" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7487" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’ve written about many unique wedding locations and unusual proposals over the years, but I’ve never come across a more unusual wedding ceremony than the one that just took place on Valentine’s Day at Hedonism II in Negril, Jamaica.  The resort had a wedding contest for ten lucky winners.  The prize…to wed in the nude at the resort.  Yes, you read that right.  Ten lucky couples were married in the nude, naked, without any clothes on, not a gown or tux in sight!</p>
<p>Now I don’t know about you, but I would never be adventurous enough, uninhibited enough or confident enough to participate in a group nude wedding but kudos to those winning couples who were.  They all won a complimentary bachelor/bachelorette party, wedding, and four-night stay at the resort.  Not so bad, and they didn’t have to stress about what to wear.</p>
<p>You really couldn’t invite your parents or grandparents to that event though, could you?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In honor of Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d share this incredible love story I came across on the <em>Today</em> show’s website. William and Margaret were friends years ago but lost touch with each other.  Living in the same retirement home, they reunited and recently married…at age 91. As Margaret says, “It’s never too late.”</p>
<p>It’s so wonderful that they found each other after all those years and are able to share the rest of their lives together.  They are a great looking couple and look so happy together.  Congratulations to them and Happy Valentine’s Day to all!</p>
<p>Here’s their story.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Results from this year&#8217;s sixth-annual &#8220;What&#8217;s on Brides&#8217; Minds&#8221; survey from David&#8217;s Bridal are out, and as in years past, I’ll give you a run down of some of the results  that surprised me about wedding spending, what brides are wearing and trends from brides getting married in 2012.</p>
<p>The survey revealed that brides are willing to share resources, and of the brides who do share, the top items they share with other brides are:  decorations (63%), clothing and accessories (50%) and coveted planning tools (38%).  I think sharing wedding decorations is a great idea but clothing I’m not so sure about.</p>
<p>It also seems like brides are planning and wearing what they want at their weddings despite disapproval of their moms.  The survey shows that the person most brides would trust in helping plan their weddings is their significant others (56%), followed by their mothers (52%) and more than half of brides (56%) say that if their mother thought their wedding dress was inappropriate, they would not choose another style.  Sorry moms.</p>
<p>I wasn’t so surprised to find that brides are still cutting back on wedding spending in 2011 just as in 2010, but are less likely to cut spending on reception essentials including:  venue (22% in 2011, 57% in 2010), décor (47% in 2011, 59% in 2010) and alcohol (27% in 2011, 44% in 2010).  I think spending on a venue can get very pricey and if you shop around enough, you could possibly find a beautiful venue at a significant savings over a dream location. </p>
<p>Are you surprised by some of these results?  Let us know.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valentine’s Day is right around the corner so I was on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/">Etsy.com</a>, one of my favorite websites, looking for a unique and artful gift for my valentine.  I found so many cute items I thought I’d share a few with you.</p>

Both make a great gift for the guy who loves games.</p>
<p>Some people say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach so for guys who like a little something sweet, you can’t go wrong with an assortment of Valentine’s Day themed <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/89956072/valentine-cookie-collection-valentines?ref=sr_gallery_30&amp;sref=&amp;ga_search_query=valentine&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_ship_to=US&amp;ga_page=12&amp;ga_search_type=handmade&amp;ga_facet=handmade">shortbread cookies</a> or a heart themed make your own <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/88427213/heart-smores-for-valentines-day-4-pack?ref=sr_gallery_5&amp;sref=&amp;ga_search_query=valentine&amp;ga_view_type=gallery&amp;ga_ship_to=US&amp;ga_page=13&amp;ga_search_type=handmade&amp;ga_facet=handmade">smores kit</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was so upset to read about the series finale of one of my favorite shows, ABC&#8217;s &#8220;Extreme Makeover: Home Edition&#8221; but so glad the show is going off in great style.  The final episode airs on Friday, January 13<sup>th</sup> and features the crew not only building a home for a deserving couple but also Men’s Warehouse donating tuxedos to help the couple realize their dream wedding.</p>
<p>The featured couple, Scott Ely and Natalie Gonzalez, was among those left homeless after devastating tornadoes hit Joplin, Mo. last year.  Scott vowed that if they survived the storm, they’d get married.  Thanks to Men’s Warehouse and ABC&#8217;s &#8220;Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,&#8221; the couple can begin married life looking good and living well. </p>
<p>Tune in for the final episode to see a seven home build for Joplin tornado victims, the largest build ever completed, and the story of Scott and Natalie.   I’ll have my box of Kleenex.  Don’t forget yours.</p>
