Worst Wedding DJ Ever
May 21, 2010
Most people intending to organise weddings always double-check the people they hire to deal with photography, video and even the music. Well, the poor newly weds who hired the bozo in this video deserve some sympathy. Not only can’t the guy do a proper DJ job, he’s also a little on the odd side – just a little.

i-Fairy Robot Performs Marriage Ceremony in Japan
May 19, 2010
Here’s a first and quite possibly only happen in a high-tech country like Japan. It just so happened that this couple (Satoko Inoue & Tomohiro Shibata) decided to choose a rather mechanical looking priest for their unique ceremony. The i-Fairy is actually a museum guide but the program had been adapted for weddings. The bride just happened to be an employee of Kokorro Ltd, the company that makes these marvellous robots so getting hold of one of them wasn’t a problem!
Apparently the ceremony went without a hitch so maybe robots are the way to go for marriage ceremonies of the future!:)

Show Me The Money
May 6, 2010
Is it acceptable for the bride and groom to ask for hard earned cash from their guests? In this day in age of recessions, bail-outs and rescues, you’d probably be excused for thinking that it’ll be ok for the married couple to ask for money rather then the usual toaster from you.
This is the interesting question posed by the Wedding Magazine yesterday. According to there research, it said 45% of married couples asked their guests to give money. That’s a pretty big pot!
The British are particularly polite to ask for cash but other international peoples are less embarrassed. The chinese are well accustomed to handing out money at weddings with red lucky packets given to parents of the wedded couple. As cultural traditions go in Cyprus, dollars are stuck on the bride and groom dresses. Whilst in the Philippines and places like Cuba, money can be stuck into shoes as the married couple dance the night away.
With weddings getting more and more expense, it could be more of a common occurrence at weddings that money will be handed out in these difficult times.
