Once the save the dates have been mailed, it's time to get your wedding invitations ordered.

Of course there are no rules when it comes to your invite, but to see some of the traditions to consider, read more

After the annulment, we should hook up the "cheap two-bit tramp" with that "sorry, no count worthless, shiftless John Patterson." They might hit it off.

Sometimes you just don't want to go to happy hour with a friend or to a co-worker's housewarming party. Maybe the location is inconvenient or perhaps you just don't feel like making the effort, either way, all you want to do is refuse. Unfortunately most of us end up going anyway because we just can't say "no." Guilt and obligation can be brutal, but it's important to learn how to politely decline invitations, otherwise you can really run yourself ragged and end up resenting your friends.

Nicole Richie kept mum about her pregnancy until it was obvious that her tiny tummy had grown. Since being on baby bump watch, the mom-to-be has kept things low key. Oh, except for her stint in jail. Never mind that.

Our gals at PopSugar have had a watchful eye on her stylish belly and whereabouts. And, this weekend a baby shower is being thrown in the expectant mom's honor.
