Vegan wedding cakes are definitely on the rise. Popular vegan backery Babycakes, located in NYC,  is known for its delicious vegan cakes and is rumored to be baking a cake for Chelsea’s wedding. Other celebs who had vegan wedding cakes? Ellen Degeneres and Portia de Rossi had a red velvet vegan wedding cake for their 2008 wedding. Scrumptious!

But according to a recent study, sleeping in separate beds is no longer something our grandparents only do. Nearly one in four American couples sleep in separate bedrooms or beds, the National Sleep Foundation reported in a 2005 survey. And if that doesn’t sound shocking enough, the foundation is predicting a rise of dual-master bedrooms to emerge in 2015. Wait, what? What’s with society’s massive step backward?

Well, according to a column in The New York Times, they blame the obvious culprit — technology. There was also a significant amount of blame put on children and snoring. But out of all the excuses the reasoning that makes the most sense is society placing sleep at a higher priority. It turns out we would much rather get our beauty rest in the guest bedroom than listen to our hubby watch TV and text on his Blackberry.

Do you and your partner sleep in separate beds/rooms?

Wondering where to start? Here are three interesting matching engagement ring/wedding band sets we found at yesterday’s New York Market show to give you an idea of where to start and what to look for:

This Catherine Iskiw matching set lets you slide the wedding band into the engagement ring for a solid, cohesive look.

This Beverley K matching vintage inspired set is simply gorgeous.

This Richard Landi matching set is very unique with its oval diamonds that over the band.

In the new issue of Engagement 101 we did exactly that. With help from celebrity hair stylist Francky L’ Official we took three everyday women and made them over into their favorite celebrities. Francky, who gave Jersey Shore’s Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi a much-needed makeover, has a natural eye for beauty transformations and knew exactly what do to for our three lucky ladies.

“I look at the face first — the way they look, the way they talk, where they work,” he said. “I then look for what feature I can make look best.”

Jennifer Schiffman, a recently engaged 31-year-old, was made over into Eva Mendes. Becky Fawcett, a 41-year-old mother of two and founder of Helpusadopt.org, was made over into Jennifer Aniston. And Michelle Schettino, a 28-year-old who is planning her wedding, was made over into Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria Parker.

But if the glitz and glam of celebrity life have you seething with jealousy, you’ll love the makeovers we did with help from celebrity hair stylist Francky L’Official. Because the average woman can’t afford the things a celebrity can, we decided to give three everyday women the star treatment by making them over into their favorite celebrity. [WATCH THE VIDEO].

A romantic husband wanted to give his Apple fanatic wife a new iPad for her birthday. But he didn’t want to just wrap it in wrapping paper like everyone else, he wanted to do something special. So, with help from some friends who own a chocolate shop, he had the iPad frozen in chocolate carbonite. The result? Well, according to the photos, his wife was very pleased!

While most of the survey results seem fair and honest (the majority of respondents said they would never cheat and only fantasize about a girlfriend’s friend sometimes), a uncomfortable amount of men (46 percent, to be exact) admitted they would dump their girlfriend or wife if they gained weight (as opposed to the less than 20 percent of women respondents who said they wouldn’t.)

Another  interesting statistic is the 75 percent of men who say they are consistently romantic as oppose to the 40 percent of women who say their boyfriends are almost never romantic. Hmmm.

What do you think of these survey results?

Think your wedding ring is one-of-a-kind? Think again! Check out this really cool wedding ring that has a projector built right into the band.

Best husband in the world Luke Jerram teamed up with a local jewelry store to build the unique ring, according to Gizmodo.  The wedding has tiny photographic slides and an adjacent lens. When light is shone directly on the  slide  it projects a photo of the happy couple, just like a real projector. Really unique, huh? Definitely a one-of-a-kind gem.
