Do yourself a favor and don't make the same mistakes I made.
Mistake Number One: Ignore Your Competition

For some reason I keep hearing stories of marriage proposals gone awry. Not because he botched the job, but because she spoke too soon.
I received a surprise wedding invitation last week from my college friend, Rachel. I called the next day to get the whole story. You know what are the colors, what does she really want off the registry and, of course, how did he propose?
