So what is it? Do we "less fortunate" ones have to get engaged to join in all the fun? NO WAY! Guess what we get to do? We get to attend all of the weddings!! Are you excit- is shining, the birds are singing, the grass is green ed or what? June is the month of the blushing bride. I suppose September, July, March, August, February, and all of the rest are too if you take the realist approach, but June is definitely the most popular month of all to tie the knot, to do get hitched, well "M" word. Anyway, the why do you suppose this is so? and they just can't wait much longer! Good guess? June is also a prime time for the Honey Moon!! You know, the weather and all. Hmmmmm let's move on. We sort of took a jump there so let's jump right back into the "engagement scene". We certainly don't want to rush things, there is still so much that we need to discuss.

Somewhere between the parties and planning for the big day, there are many-wel- l, should I say .boring things that need to be taken care of also. Such as blood tests, guest lists, your marriage license, rehearsals, reservations, photographers, doctor appointments, and packing for thehoney moon. Wow!
