Who can get enough of Beyonce's Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)! Safe to say, it is my official theme song for wedding planning this year.
And here's to all the fellows who heed such sound advice from the Queen B. One in particular, Mr. Jon Reed who was kind enough to bestow me with an engagement ring that knocked my socks off.
It's from Judith Ripka's Estate collection and is perfect for what I perceive as my long, but boney fingers. Pardon the self-criticsm, but I just knew a traditional solitaire would only send me in a tailspin and make me even more self-concious about my basketball player's piano hands.
But now the true test of love, Judith Ripka recently had a sample sale here in New York City and I was so tempted to look for the matching pair of earrings to wear on the big day.
Take a look above and tell me what you think. Am I just going overboard here with the fine jewelry? After all, we have to leave something for them to think of for anniversary gifts - right?
And Beyonce, if you're blogging right now, please know I'm eagerly awaiting your release of Married Ladies (Match Some Earrings With It)!
Let me hear from you ladies; am I pushing it here?
And come back next Tuesday, I need your help in figuring out which wedding band looks best. I can't quite decide between two major contenders.
Ciao B2Bs! Ty
Sometimes you just can’t take the geek out of the bride- or groom-to-be.
So why force it? Go with the flow and find the perfect wedding accessories to fit your love of all things geeky. We found these rings on Etsy and love their nerdiness. They feature the word "love" hand-stamped in binary code!
Now all you need are some light sabers and maybe invitations printed in BASIC…
What are they?
Etsy seller kateszabone makes gorgeous handmade jewelry and uses plenty of raw diamonds (in a variety of colors!) in her pieces. Our personal favorite is pictured above, but she has much more to choose from - including necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and more

A man who lost his wedding ring off the coast of Hawaii's Oahu island less than 24 hours after his nuptials says the ring washed ashore four days later.
Carlton Helm said he had gone for an 8.5-mile paddle along Oahu's east shore Sunday morning and did not realize until he was nearly finished that he had lost the waterproof case containing his wallet, cell phone and wedding ring.
"It was gone. The container was gone and I freaked out. I was like 'Oh my gosh,'" Helm said.
Helm said he and his new wife left for their honeymoon Nov. 16 to the Hawaiian island of Molokai expecting to never see the ring again.
"I didn't care about the cell phone, wallet. I mean they could have racked up the credit cards. I just wanted my ring," Helm said.
However, the newlyweds said they received a call four days later from Hanauma Bay Park employees saying the plastic case had washed ashore with its contents intact.
"(We were) ecstatic. We're like, 'This is an act of God,'" Helm said.
Truly amazing! What a happy ending!

Move over, diamonds... pearls are making a serious comeback!
Pearls are the oldest known gem and traditionally symbolize purity, innocence, and wealth. And lately they've been enjoying their own renaissance in weddings both lavish and modest.
They can be worn in many ways: You can bundle them around your neck for a trendy look, bead them into your gown, wear them in your hair, or keep it simple with a pair of pearl stud earrings.

During the coverage of the Republican National Convention, we could not help but notice that Bristol Palin's boyfriend Levi had her name tattooed around his finger.
It seems like he is not the first person to come up with this brilliant plan: Pamela Anderson, Howard Stern and Ashlee Simpson all decided to get inked for their big day.
Will you be heading to the tattoo parlor before their weddings?
