This would be a great engagement ring for proposing to your boyfriend (or edgy girlfriend).

Call me a curmudgeon, but I really think that public, highly-orchestrated, excessive, “quirky,” viral-video-hopeful wedding proposals are the worst. Way to laden a life-changing decision with unfair pressure and the input of totally unrelated parties! And screw that overused Bruno Mars song. You can be creative without going over the top, and proposing discreetly in a special public place can enhance a nice memory, but only if you’re sure your partner will say yes!
(Also, I’m glad that more people are doing their wallets and karma a favor by rethinking the conventional diamond engagement ring.)
Creative proposals are great, and public proposals are sweet if marriage had been discussed previously, but “OMG LET’S GET YOUTUBE FAMOUS” proposals like this now-viral lip dub are annoying as heck. Plus, I wonder if this woman is a little irritated that her Zooey-Deschanel-wannabe friend did more of the proposing than her fiancé did.
EDIT: The parents are adorable, though.
This is an outtake from a couple years ago when my aunt (of tullisphoto) recruited my cousins and me to help her experiment with underwater bridal shots.

Day 23 - A song that you want to play at your wedding:
“Kathy’s Song” by Paul Simon
One of the most beautiful love songs ever written.
I love the look of these all-white flowers. If I learn how to make flowers out of marzipan or frosting before our future wedding, I might steal this look.
For some reason, lots of indie weddings are owl-themed. Maybe I’ll follow suit and illustrate this for our future wedding invitation.
