I've been fortunate to visit many different places around the world through my work as a news anchor. I currently live in Reno, but I grew up in Los Angeles, San Diego and Texas (Go Longhorns!). I also lived in both Spain and Costa Rica. Needless to say, my fiancé Chris and I have many friends from different area codes, so throwing a destination wedding is the best choice for us. 

Ideally, we want to spend a few days with our guests to have more time to catch up and create special memories together. The thought of having just one night with friends who we haven't seen in years sounds heartbreaking! However, we also understand that not everyone can afford a full-blown vacation to a far-away place, so we'd like to choose an affordable destination located in the United States.

Well, that certainly wasn't in the script! During a performance of "Peter Pan" at SSE Hydro in Glasgow, the lead actor, Sandor Sturbl, broke character right before a scene where Peter gives Wendy a kiss to pop the question to the love of his life — the actress playing Wendy, Jane Mary Sullivan.

Watch the adorable video: 

“Only a few people knew about my plan but I had to tell some of the production crew so that they knew to cut the music on time,” Sturbl told Daily Record. “I was really nervous and just hoped she would say, ‘Yes’ – otherwise it could have been pretty embarrassing.”

“It was a magical moment, and one I’ll never forget,” the bride-to-be, whose stage name is Lilly-Jane Young, added.

We are just about halfway through the month of January, and so far, I am sticking to my resolutions! I was weighed at my training session with Bonne Marcus yesterday, and I'm down four pounds since my last weigh-in two weeks ago. Next week, we will take my measurements and see how I am looking there, which I am feeling confident about — my clothes are getting bigger and bigger. How is everyone doing with their own resolutions?

Last week I had a very successful week with my workouts and diet. Here is a recap:

I kept up with the “no starch” diet throughout the week. For breakfast, I ate hard-boiled eggs or just hard-boiled egg whites, snacked on unsalted almonds and fruit when hungry, drank only water and coffee, ate my veggie burgers and vegetables for lunch, and made lots of healthy dinners. We had plenty of grilled chicken and vegetables, split pea soup, and salads. At the beginning of the week, I found myself craving carbs, but by Thursday, I didn’t even want them, which was awesome.

Yesterday, I went food shopping and stocked up on healthy dinners: Mahi Mahi to cook tonight with asparagus and spinach, ground turkey to make turkey meatballs, and some more chicken and tons of vegetables to grill. I didn’t have time to make my own veggie burgers this weekend to eat for lunch, so I bought Boca veggie burgers to test them out. I cooked them on my George Foreman grill last night, then added steamed sugar snap peas and a cut-up apple to complete the lunch. I’ll let you know how I like them next week.

One unadvertised perk of being a university resident hall director — your dormitory can help you pull off a truly memorable proposal!

When Frank Tierney, a resident hall director at the University of Buffalo, popped the question to his girlfriend Katelyn Illingworth in front of his dorm, "Will you marry me?" popped up in the windows of the 10-story building.

"[We] blacked out all the windows with poster board," shared Tierney's friend on Reddit. "Then we traced out letters and poked holes along them, inserting the lights into the holes."

The process took about two weeks of planning for the group of 10 friends who helped pull off the proposal. 

"When he stopped her in the middle of the parking lot, he gave his speech and we all waited for the signal. When he got down on one knee, we turned each floor on in descending order with a person in the stairwell shouting to each floor when to turn their lights on."

BG brides, did you tune into the 71st Annual Golden Globes? We curled up on the couch with a big bowl of popcorn to scout the evening's most covetable fashion looks and there were some huge hits — 12 Years a Slave's Lupita Nyong'o in a red Calvin Klein cape, Naomi Watts in Tom Ford, and mama-to-be Olivia Wilde's emerald Gucci dress.

But overall, the looks were downright...polarizing. (Jennifer Lawrence, we love you, but those comparisons between your Dior dress and Ariel from The Little Mermaid are spot-on! See a hilarious photo here.)

Thankfully, all of our favorite starlets were on the same page when it came to hair and makeup. Check out the most glamorous beauty looks below and tell us which one you'd most like to wear on your big day!
