Featured Engagement Stories
I moved out to New York City for grad school in the summer of 2011. I grew up in Downey, CA my entire life and I needed a change of scenery. My roommate and I started going out to a church, and I guess Jason was one of the welcoming ushers. I didn't notice him at all.
The reason the proposal happened at NYCC wasn't for The NERDIST to tape it, it was for the extra tickets. NYCC sold out fast and I wanted her dad to be there to witness it.
It was Saturday, April 26, 2014. I knew that it was the big day! I started off that normal Saturday by taking Kate to one of her favorite restaurants in California: P.F. Chang’s at the Irvine Spectrum Center. We went and all was completely normal up until the fortune cookies came out.

These days announcing your engagement can be as easy as changing your Facebook status or sending out a quick tweet, but before you reach for that smartphone take a few minutes to think about how you really want people to find out you’re engaged.
When couples are planning a wedding, the degree to which they stick to a particular style is quite varied. Some may have a fully themed wedding with every aspect of the day focussed on that theme, while others may have a very vague idea about the kind of feel they want their wedding to have.
A wedding planner might sound like an expensive luxury, but hiring a wedding planner to help out with your wedding arrangements is becoming more and more common. For many couples having the extra help makes a lot of sense.
Marriage Proposal Advice....
Public proposal seems to be growing in popularity. Proposal packages where performers call you and your girlfriend up on stage, waiters deliver the ring to your table with dessert, or where dolphins pass on your message with a special sign, are increasingly common.
When you propose to your girlfriend is should be a truly special moment that the two of you will be able to reminisce happily about for the rest of your lives. Many men want to make their proposal unique, and the key to this is to make it personal and meaningful to the two of you.
Whether or not your proposal comes completely out of the blue will depend largely on how long you’ve been together and how much you’ve talked about getting married, but if you plan it right you can make a proposal a surprise in any situation.
