I am so in love with this adorable ribbon, perfect for your wedding day. The typewriter-like font, the thin rose edging, and the phrase "To have and to hold from this day forward" all make me WANT this ribbon even though my wedding took place in 2008. But if your wedding is still ahead of you, perhaps you'll want to use this ribbon from UK purveyor Cox and Cox on your invitations, wedding favors, or bridesmaids' presents. Do you love it as much as I do?

If your Santa brought you an extra-special engagement ring yesterday, congratulations! Christmas is one of the most popular times of year to propose, so I imagine that many of you are having trouble taking your eyes off of your left hand right now. But if you can *bear* to look away, today is a great day to get a jump start on wedding planning. Start off by reading the First 10 Steps for a Newly Engaged Couple. You might also want some advice on Announcing Your Engagement. And if that left hand is just too sparkly or your new (gasp!) fiance is too dreamy to take your eyes away for even a few minutes, that's okay too. After all, an important task on your wedding checklist is to enjoy being engaged!

If you don't celebrate Christmas, today and tomorrow don't have to be just days of Chinese food and the movies. They're also great days to get stuff done on your wedding checklist. Your phone will probably be quiet, and there will be relatively few people wanting your attention. Since most stores and venues will be closed, focus instead on organization tasks like setting your wedding budget or writing thank you notes. And of course, there's always the pleasures of curling up with hot chocolate and the internet for looking at the dreamy portfolios of wedding photographers, florists, and other wedding vendors. Happy Day-off-from-work to you!
