Ryan Reynolds, 35, has been stealing girls hearts for over a decade. Some of his more popular movies include Van Wilder, Just Friends, Definitely Maybe, and of course, Green Lantern. Lively, 25, is famous for her starring roles in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Gossip Girl and Green Lantern.
Reynolds married Lively on September 9, 2012. They were married in a private Southern Wedding at Boone Hall Plantation. The two exchanged their promises at the same place The Notebook was filmed. The two have been together about a year and even though they tied the knot on September 9th, they did not actually make it legal until 5 days later.
Reynolds chose Lorraine Schwartz to help him with Lively’s ring. The ring setting is designed in rose gold with pave diamonds. The center is a large light pink oval diamond that looks flawless in color and clarity. The band has tiny pave set diamonds which match the diamonds of her wedding band. There are no exact details of the diamond or the price. The ring has a vintage appeal to it and is beautiful.
The Green Lantern costars seem to be completely in love and honestly happy. They make a gorgeous couple and we wish them all the best and happiness in the future.

We are officially in the middle of National Singles Week. This is a time for you to celebrate that you are single and embrace it.
National Singles Week was started in Ohio in the 1980s. It is designed to celebrate singles and their contributions to society. You do not have to actually be single to celebrate this week. This week is to be celebrated if you are not married. That means if you are a parent, a partner, or are widowed or divorced, it still counts. This week is now celebrated all over the United States in the third week of September.
In 2010 there were 99.6 million unmarried people 18 and older in America. This is equivalent to 43.6 percent of the United States Residents in that age group. There were 88 unmarried men for every 100 unmarried women. 
Natasha Bedingfield sang “This is my current single status, My Declaration of Independence” in her popular song “Single.” This week is for all the single men and women, no matter the circumstances on how you got there, to celebrate.
So how will you celebrate National Singles Week? Will you go to dinner with some friends, make a date with somebody special, or unfold in a book or favorite hobby? It doesn’t matter what you decide as long as you celebrate this week for you in your own week. Happy National Singles Week!
We Found Love in a Hopeless Place – A Bachelor Pad Proposal September 11, 2012
Posted by Jill Renee in : Buying Engagement Rings, Diamond Jewelry, Eco-Friendly Jewerly, Engagement Rings, Jewelry, Press Releases , 4commentsFor all of you Bachelor and Bachelorette fans, there was a shocking proposal last night on the finale of Bachelor Pad, Season 3. Tony Pieper poppe
d the big question last night to Blakeley Shea. The couple announced on live television that they were moving in together and after that Tony shocked everybody with a proposal.
Tony, from Emily’s season of the Bachelorette and Blakeley, from Ben’s season of the Bachelor, met on Bachelor Pad Season 3. They were not paired together at the beginning of the show but after drama and people getting voted off, the couple found each other. They hit it off fast and their first overnight date was where the magic really sparked. The couple announced right before the surprise engagement that Blakeley would be moving to Portland, Oregon to move in with Tony. Tony, a single father, popped the question by stating that she was the perfect addition to his family and he could not imagine spending his life without her. Blakeley was shocked but of course she said yes.
Tony produced a black Neil Lane box out of his pocket and presented Blakeley with a lovely halo ring. Neil Lane is the designer who always does the ring for The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.
All of the contestants admit to coming to Bachelor Pad for the money, and if love happens than it happens. Blakely and Tony seemed like an unlikely couple at the beginning but it just goes to prove that love can be found when you least expect it.
