Due process

I realized I failed to post the list of Brandon Yorks on the Target registry (I posted the Julie Burns on 5/1) and again would like to voice that "Julie" is better than Holly & Stephanie. Not that it matters now, the marrige is already on the books :)

York is better

I thought it was fun to find that THREE Julie Burns are getting married in the next 2 months and registered at Target...

Wedding protection

My new car/home ins company, Travelers, is advertising its Wedding Insurance in a oh so tactful way - using quotes like the following:

"You've put so much into your wedding…your heart, your time, and your money. But what if the bridal salon loses your dress? Or your caterer backs out? Or severe weather rolls in? Wedding insurance can protect your special day."

Because, of course, saying "Or what if he backs out a month before the wedding?" just wouldn't work, even thought that's probably why some people will buy the policy.

There must be a marketing term for ignoring a targeted audience when advertising a product because no one wants to admit that's why they buy the product...

UPDATE: I lied. I read the FAQs and if "you and your fiance decide not to get married" the policy doesn't cover it.

Maroon and gold wedding

Former Gophers hockey stars Krissy Wendell and Johnny Pohl are planning an August wedding :(

Weddingpalooza 2007

I should really call it mini-wedding palooza because Natalie #1 takes the cake w/ her I think 13 weddings in 2006 (plus she was IN several of them). But, since that total includes invites from her and her boyfriends' friends, I figure I'm pacing with her because my slate is all mine, none from my BF. Because I don't have a BF.

ANYWAY, mark your calendar (Alicia) and plan for the following fun weddings:

May 5 - Julie and Brandon (aka JBY)
May 19 - Heidi and Joe
June 23 - Damon and Katie
July 28 - Beth and Gregg
September 29 - Rich and Nicole (aka Nicole Ritchie)

If you can come up w/ celebrity nicknames for the other couples, please share.

Let it be known

I'm totally getting married in December, year TBD. Looking at pix from this girl's MySpace page of her Dec wedding confirmed it. I thought I'd be a fall bride, but I'm definately learning toward Christmas instead.

PS Several pix make me throw up a little in my mouth, but focus on the church / xmas trees / garland with white lights ones...
