Enter to Win the Ultimate Vegas Getaway

sarah kirkland

This summer, I know exactly which song I'll be belting out at my girlfriend's last fling before the ring: Sarah Kirkland's debut single "Bachelorette." With her Motown-country sound, catchy hook and tongue-in-cheek lyrics ("before we get home, we'll delete the pictures from our phones"), it's earned a spot on our pre-party playlists. 

Now this singer and bachelorette pro (she's attended 12 and counting!) is giving one bride-to-be the chance to hit the jackpot with an all-expenses-paid weekend getaway to Sin City. The winner and three friends will score posh digs at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and a Saks Fifth Avenue makeover.

The contest ends June 29, so enter now:  "Like" Sarah on Facebook and submit a short essay that explains why your group of ladies deserves to win. The top 20 entries will be posted on the singer's Facebook page for public voting.

Good luck!

Joe Biden's Daughter Weds!

ashley bidenAshley Blazer Biden, a social worker and the daughter of Jill Jacobs Biden and Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., married Dr. Howard Krein, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon, this past Saturday in Wilmington, Delaware. 

"This is the right guy," the VP told People Magazine about his new son-in-law. "And he's getting a helluva woman." 

Biden escorted Ashley, the youngest of his three children, down the aisle in the same church where she was baptized. She looked ravishing in a custom silk mermaid gown by Vera Wang, featuring trendy illusion sleeves and a hand-cut tulle and organza petal skirt. According to an interview with The News Journal, the bride kept the dress a secret to everyone except her mother and Maid of Honor, so that her famous father would be surprised.
