We really appreciate couples who make sure their guests are entertained at their receptions, and we LOVE it when the bride and groom pull a fast one on their guests, like the Clay family's super first dance surprise -- involving kids, choreography, and a killer dance medley.

See for yourself:

When it comes to adding some spice for the sexual palate, many women dig in their top dresser drawer for their little buddies as extra stimulus. Meanwhile, many men hide under the covers like scared bunnies.

The truth is that many men hate sex toys because they simply fear the toy's better at satisfying their partners or will replace the need for the real thing. This couldn't be further from the truth.

Of course we're not going to miss a movie that prominently features a wedding in its plot. We recently saw Made of Honor. If you haven't seen it yet, we're here to give you the dish.

We have to admit that we weren't sure about the movie at first. How many times have movies featured a woman (or man) marrying the "wrong" person?

Patrick Dempsey plays Tom, the inventor of the coffee sleeve that you see at just about every coffee shop nowadays. He's a confirmed bachelor and ladies' man. He has strict rules about dating - who he dates, when, and how many times. And he NEVER breaks his rules. Michelle Monaghan plays Hannah, his best friend since college. They see each other every Sunday. Hannah thinks Tom is afraid of commitment; he thinks he's just having fun.

Tom's happy with his routine until Hannah leaves on a business trip to Scotland for six weeks. And things aren't the same without her. No one else knows he likes his dim sum steamed instead of fried, or tells him the best thing to order for dessert and then shares. He gets up the nerve to tell her that he has feelings for her - only, she has a surprise with her when she gets back. His name is Colin (Kevin McKidd) and his family owns the largest whisky distillery in Scotland. Oh, and they're getting married.

Since Tom is her best friend, Hannah asks him to be her maid of honor (MOH). He balks at first, but his buddies convince him to go ahead. Because as MOH, he can keep close tabs on the wedding. His goal? Steal the bride.

Hmmm... Seems if you're going to spend TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS on a wedding cake, you'd want it to be pretty ...

You're thinking of a 1920's wedding? You'll want 1920's music, of course -- and how about some 20's dancing, too? And what is the quintessential 1920s dance? The Charleston, of course!

Here we have some pretty talented university students showing us how this energetic dance is done:


If that all looks a little too athletic for you, let alone Great-Aunt Agnes, here is a clip showing the steps in a more sedate version, complete with step-by-step Charleston instructions.

But remember: Aunt Agnes could well recall seeing her older cousins do this dance a time or two in her youth. Let the toe-tapping strains of the Charleston waft around the dance floor, and she might just have a surprise or two for you!

Most people going through divorces like to keep things quiet. Breakups are very painful and private, and celebrities and socialites dread seeing their divorce drama in the tabloids. Usually.

High profile New York couple Philip Smith and Tricia Walsh-Smith are now entering a high profile divorce, thanks to a YouTube video made and posted by Tricia, the scorned, hurt, and angry wife. In the 6-minute video with nearly 200,000 views to date, Tricia tearily tells her side of the story. Before an embarrassing tirade about their personal life, Walsh-Smith explains how the prenup she signed will leave her with nothing if her husband succeeds in kicking her out. The catch is that he has to have grounds for divorce, which she claims do not exist -- and they may not have existed... before this video went public.

What do you think? Is she someone you could sympathize with, or is she just being vindictive and childish?

For your entertainment: forty-nine seconds of silliness! If your mother ever called you a "silly goose", we'll just hope she had nothing like this in mind. We're sure that, on your wedding day, you look nothing like the bridal models here... "That's something you don't see every day!" Indeed. Which is probably a good thing, all in all...

When it comes to such an important question as "Will you marry me?," most people don't even ask unless they already know the answer will be yes. That goes double for proposals on the jumbotron at a major sports event, or something that's widely televised -- at least, one would hope.

Here's a guy who was a bit hasty with his big public proposal. When he arranged to propose at half court at a nationally televised Houston Rockets basketball game, he didn't get the reaction he expected:

Our friends at Asylum think this may be fake -- just a publicity stunt. But it looks pretty real, and pretty devastating. What do you think?

Chap and Maura's wedding video is one of the most romantic videos we've seen - period. It has all the charm of a French movie and more heart than any Hollywood romance. The music still haunts us days after first seeing the video.

It was shot by Josh Goleman (a friend of the couple) and is intimate and beautiful - take a look and tell us that your heart doesn't skip a beat when you see them kissing on the "Rocky" steps.

We wish Chap and Maura a lifetime of joy - thank you for sharing your beautiful wedding with us!

Cynical, or reality? Me, I feel sorry for the guy.

My daughter has chosen the song she wants sung at her wedding. Given that she's only 14 and hasn't really had a boyfriend yet, we have lots of time to decide for sure. But for now, having just seen Juno, this is her pick:






Not such a bad sentiment, for a wedding.

I read an interesting post by Terrica over at Fabuluxe Events this morning. She's highlighted 20 new concepts that have changed the face of weddings.

On my own, I'd not have come up with such an exhaustive list but everything she has written about is spot on. The biggest change in wedding planning (in my opinion) is the impact the Internet has had, and the most spectacular new photography trends, ones that I really really love, are photojournalism and cinematography.

There's something just brilliant about making a movie of your wedding day and if you're about to get married and haven't thought about doing this, then I can only encourage you to try and jiggle and tweak your budget to include an HD movie because, believe me, your day passes by in a dreamy haze and it's impossible to recapture every moment with memory alone. Yes, you'll have photographs and they are great, and videos are good too, but they just capture the highlights, whereas a film is going to give you a fantastic, in-depth look at everything that took place.

One thing that Terrica didn't mention though, and it's one of the most astounding trends in weddings, is just how much money couples are spending on their big day. It's not something I endorse or even understand, quite frankly, and I'd have sleepless nights if I spent over £30 000 ( about $60 000) on celebrating one day in my life. But there you go, OTT weddings are all the rage.

And my two favourite planning trends? That would have to be the DIY bride, and the 'green' bride, without a doubt.

It makes me grin from ear to ear. It makes me shake my head in disbelief. It makes me clutch my belly and guffaw. What am I going on about? "Dancing Brides."

Brides who think they've 'got the moves, baby'. Seriously, there are wedding videos out there of bridal couples and even entire wedding parties, putting on a mini-musical extravaganza. Sounds okay, right? I mean, why not dance your heart out? Well yes, if they could actually dance, but what I'm seeing are people looking hilarious as they strut their stuff on the dance floor.

Check it out. There's this video below, of a zany bride and groom doing something resembling the chicken dance, and then there's this one here of all the wedding attendants, and the bride and groom, doing some sort of Michael Jackson special.

When my husband proposed, it was like Christmas. Not because it was cold -- it was August in Florida -- but it was this HUGE, AMAZING THING that I'd been waiting for and really looking forward to for a long time, and it was everything I'd hoped for and more, and then ... it was over. That sounds negative, and I don't mean that it was a bad thing at all. It's just that, for some of us, the anticipation of a wonderful event is sometimes as great as the event itself, no matter how much it exceeds expectations.

However, once you're an old engaged or married lady, like me, you can still get your proposal kicks by watching these proposal videos on Brides.com. These are proposals on ice, at Rockafeller Center in NYC, and it truly is magical and romantic. I dare you not to cry!

Added bonus: you get to vote for your favorite couple, and then vote for the Sandals resort you think they win a trip to. And, even better, you can vote for which Sandals resort YOU want to win a trip to! Woo hoo!
