Well it's that time of year again, and no, I am not talking about the Holidays. I am talking about engagement season! Between Thanksgivning and New Years is the time that a third of engagements happen. Perhaps it is a great time for families to share in the glory of love, or perhaps it's an opportunity to kill two birds with one - ahem - "stone." Either way, that means that January becomes the beginning of wedding planning. You'll see the Bridal Shows begin to pop up everywhere. (I guess now would be the appropriate time to remind you all of the Bridal Forum that happens the first Sunday of January here at the Sheraton West Des Moines. It's put on by Your Wedding Iowa, and it is not to be missed. http://www.yourweddingiowa.com/iowa-brides-plan-at-bridal-forum.php ) You'll see those bridal magazines flying off of the shelves and hours spent on The Knot.com. And of course let's not forget the subtle commercial reminders that jewelers give to those guys during the football games - classic!
I know a lot of women (yes, some of them are my friends) who are hoping that Santa turns her piece of coal into a big fat diamond this year, and for thier guy's sake, I hope thier right. My advice to those ladies who are crossing fingers and toes for a holiday engagement would be to say it out right - that is if you haven't already made it obvious (you know who you are). Be honest, but not pushy. Your guy knows when it's right. So I leave you with wishes of a happy holiday season - may you get all that you asked for!
