From the looks of the Buzz, many couples solidified their relationships over the holidays. Whether the hopeful dude put the engagement ring in a glass of bubbly or got down on bended knee, marriage and engagements were in the air. Searches on “weddings” jumped 42% over the last week as excited, newly engaged people hit the Search box in a frenzy of wedding planning.
Three-fourths of all wedding queries come from the ladies. While that’s not really a surprise, we’re shocked the figure wasn’t even higher — say 99%. A wedding can be a huge undertaking for anyone, guy or gal, so we’ll walk you through the process fueled by Buzz power…

And don’t forget to include return envelopes with the invitations, because that would be a significant breach of “wedding etiquette” (+548%). After all, if your guests feel that your etiquette is lacking, they might not buy you any “wedding gifts” (+71%). Heaven forbid!
