- Stressful Turkey and Overwhelming Mistletoe: Being Engaged During the Holidays
Can you believe that Thanksgiving is just a week away? The thought fills me with both joy and dread, as it marks the official start of the holiday season here in the United States.

Barbara Walters called the wedding, held at the Trump National Golf Course in New Jersey, "gorgeous" but "not glitzy". The 500 guests, who included many bold-faced names, watched the ceremony on the golf-course against a backdrop of colorful fall leaves before retiring to an Preston Bailey-designed reception dripping with white roses.
