Do you and your partner share an obsession for koalas? Are you all about the llamas? Do you have a pack of dogs living under your roof? If you're an animal lover, you're probably wondering how exactly you can involve those furry friends in your wedding ceremony. Go beyond the dove release with these six animal wedding guests we'd love to see at more weddings.

Want to plan a ladies' night out to remember? The Bach, an online destination for bachelorette party planning, has pulled together a list of the country’s top bachelorette party destinations for 2015. To our shock, NYC ranked #1, while Vegas took third place. Now that the results are in, here are the top five cities and our pick for the “can’t miss” venues in each hot spot:

1. New York City

At the start of the New Year, I’m guessing that many of you vowed to eat better, exercise more and really get in shape for the wedding. My own New Year’s resolution was to improve my diet, forgo junk food (struggling with this one!) and live a healthier lifestyle. It’s not always easy but certainly well worth the effort, which leads me to some fantastic products geared toward keeping your homes and bodies super-fit and healthy. Add these to your registry list, and you’ll feel and look your best long after the wedding day.

Spring is right around the corner (though you'd never guess it from today's frigid temperatures), and you know what that means: Wedding season is almost upon us! Renée Strauss, the go-to bridal stylist for celebrities and trendsetters who is hosting the Luxe Hotel Wedding Event on March 9, shares the top wedding

Ashley McIntyre and Danny Robinson's love story began with an incredible act of kindness. 

With Valentine’s Day on the horizon, there are a gazillion ways to make the day extra special. Flowers, chocolate, dinner and champagne all enhance the romance of the day. But I was blown away to read in a recent New York Post article that some guys are feeling immense “pressure to show passion” and forking over huge sums of money on flowers — anywhere from $1,000 up to $25,000 — to prove their love. I’m sure you’ll agree that unless you’re a 1-percenter, spending that kind of money is way too over the top.

Valentine’s Day is one of the most popular days of the year for marriage proposals, and although many proposals today are extravagant, planned with military precision and filmed for all the world to see on YouTube, I’m still a fan of the quiet, intimate “just the two of us” proposal. I recently came across this super-sweet idea from Matthew David Hopkins, Creative Director of New York City-based Matthew David Celebrations.
